Each of us have lives that are uniquely us. Each day there are many many things that come into our lives, some in our control and some not in our control. Find the beautiful, the uniquely wonderful, the divine, the simply impressive, the joyful, the rhythmically inviting, the goose bump inducing awesome, and share it...bring it forward...shine a light on it.
So today, here are some of those things, and it's only 10:25AM. Think about what the end of my day will look like given that this has come to me in the beginning hours of my life, today. I opened all of the blinds and let the morning sunlight come pouring, streaming, flooding into my room. I heard the birds singing outside my window...lovely trills and urgent calls...life's voice needing to express itself, needing to be heard. I made a steaming pot of Cherry Chocolate coffee and topped it off with Mocha Peppermint creamer and took my coffee out onto the sunny porch along with my Nook and read some wonderful contemplative passages from Awareness by Anthony De Mello. In the forward to the book, J Francis Stroud says of De Mello, "That was what his work was all about, waking people up to the reality of their greatness."
A passage from the book for you, "Spirituality means waking up. Most people, even though they don't know it, are asleep...They never understand the loveliness and the beauty of this thing that we call human existence."
Finally, I shine the light on you, the reader of this post. You are loveliness that has touched my life by reading this. You are loveliness that will think on this and move from it to make it a part of your life's art. I honor your connectedness in the co-creation of life.
