Seeing Things Differently – Part 2
:Had a spell been cast over her? A veil dropped over her so that nothing was very clear. But remember reader she was not aware of how much she was not seeing. Perhaps none of us really are…..”
Seeing Things Differently – Part 1
“We come into this world to be astounded. By the magic, mystery, beauty and pure miracle of our being here. Yet that very purpose is often disrupted by the every day ups and downs of life as a human being. Let’s face it, being human can be a struggle and a rough ride…..”
An Openness For Mystery
“How many unseen mysteries are out of our direct perception? I don’t know about you but rainbows are always magical to me and make me smile every single time. Somewhere over the rainbow….and pots of gold at the end of them – but there is actually no end!”
Circles of Motion
“When reaching the elder stage of life many of us realize with acute awareness that each morning that we wake up to an in breath/out breath, and open our eyes…. it is a gift.
What if the greatest act of creativity comes in this final stage of life. Knowing that how we spend our days matters more than it ever has.”
In The Marrow of Our Bones
“How often are we challenged by distraction missing the moments that are the very essence of life unfolding?
I pose that question to live within, not to answer. The shifts and changes continue in spite of our compelling need to control. That is the only part of this elder journey we can be certain of. “
Life Is Magic
“We are fed by beauty and especially that of nature. How often do we simply take our natural surroundings for granted. Forgetting that this part of us can be an elixir for despair and heartache in a world gone crazy. A remembrance of wholeness and interconnection…..not separation….”
The Beauty of Interwoven Connections
“Standing on the wooden walkway at the Audubon Bird Sanctuary my companion saw her first. Long turtle neck stretching up to the sky to soak in the suns rays, her body grounded on the log in the lake water poised amidst the reflections of Fall color….”
Tipping the Scales Away from Fear and Towards Love
“There are times when I come across someone who aligns with the vibration I hold for myself and the world. A higher vibration of love, compassion, kindness and wholeness. Vivek Murthy is one of those individuals who sees and perceives from a much larger viewpoint. His clarity and transparency is refreshing and inspiring….”
Telling the Truth….
“What would it be like if we told the truth of what it is like to fully be alive? The bare honest truth in any given moment. Not only to ourselves but to others who ask the question, “how are you today?”
Perhaps not all the time, but more often than we do now…..”
