This morning from these very stairs I watched a coyote run past me. It was so fast it was like seeing lightening. I was grateful Jessie didn't start whining or howling, though she watched that coyote zoom down the sandy beach, up the dune, and disappear into the woods with great intensity.
I looked up what it means when you cross paths with a coyote and here's what I learned: "A coyote sighting speaks of the worries you should let go of and start anew and take pleasure in the things you do. Seeing a coyote during the day is somewhat unusual, so don't miss this message that the spirit world is sending you."
I'm a little sorry I didn't take a photo, but I'm also glad I was so present to the experience. The hair on the back of my neck stood up and I held my breath until the coyote was out of sight. It was scary and exhilarating at the same time.
Here's to letting go, starting anew, taking pleasure, and not missing the message that was sent.
