Held and Overflowing

Dream: I’m planting trees in the living room. Some plants need water or movement. A small child hugs me. I water the plants with hose and bucket, and it spills over, flooding the room and running down the walls.

Planting trees in the living room feels like bringing something essential into the center of my life. The child’s embrace carries a quiet gratitude. Yet the water comes in abundance, more than the space can contain, as if something in me is being asked to receive more than I am yet able to hold.
