listen while you read
The ones that anoint you,
body and soul.
That fall
from the heavens
in the form of rain,
soft and clear.
That fall
from the sun
and moon,
in showers
of pure light.
That rise
from your heart
to your eyes,
as tears of joy ~
when great joy is there,
or deep presence,
or great sadness.
That bathe you
in their beauty,
blue oceans to
mirror-faced lakes.
All the waters of life,
aliveness,
that flow
through your days;
that will always find you,
fill you,
body and soul.
Having a front row seat on life is fine, and better than a back seat. Or a partial view. But what if you choose to be in the heart of every experience, large or small, instead of being in the audience? Where instead of spectating you're dynamically interacting, part of the whole ensemble?
Step into the story the light is shaping, is infusing. In any place you're living or traveling through. Bring your mind and body completely into each scene, onto the living stage,
curtain going up. Engage full-on with all the elements, the atmosphere, with Nature's actors and the other characters around you.
