It felt like one of those angel whispers when my son showed me his recent photo of a contemplative large hippo. What an unusual pose, resting below the surface, hanging out with a school of happy little fish. Hippos are big, and bold, with teeth ideal for self-defense and chewing. Hippos represent strength, resilience, and emotional depth. This wise one had chosen to find peace below the tide of human emotions. To swim deep and avoid taking the bait, hook, line and sinker.
"She opened her mouth with wisdom and in her tongue is the law of kindness." (Prov.31:26)
May Love and peace prevail in your hearts during these chaotic times. The best is yet to be.
