I am the one who sits waiting calmly with the readiness and strength to activate at any moment. I am the one who can transform this activation like a butterfly floating with ease in the stillness and awe of sunset. I am the one waiting to fight, to protect, to jump into action at any moment. Things are still now, but can change very quickly to danger even with the beauty of sunrise or sunset—stillness can become chaos, just like chaos can become still. This is the wonder of impermanence. The butterfly is always there to spread her wings and fly away to safety.

My gift to you is the balance of strength and ease, the message of flow and impermanence. You don’t have to live in high alert. You can trust the tiger in you will protect and activate when he’s needed. Instead spread your wings with joy and ease and take in the beauty all around you. The tiger has your back and can rest.

I want you to say, fly and be free. The tiger needs a rest. Let him do his job only when he truly has to. He’s not needed every moment of every waking hour. He’s tired too and needs a rest.

Remember to have fun, enjoy your day, be present and savor goodness. Set the hyper-vigilance free even with all the things that create discomfort.
