I created this blog to offer uplifting content, and to share my appreciation for the natural world and its gifts. I also follow my own life journey closely, and I want to provide encouragement to those who are in a similar process of self-discovery.
Yes, we've just had a most amazing cosmic gift. The total eclipse of the sun was a powerful and awesome event in our lives. It had everything: dark/light, letting go/opening, energy shifts, a corona and solar flares, not to mention just being an amazing visual and sensory experience. I just keep using the word amazing!! I intend to ride for quite awhile on the energy and magnificence of this time. I felt prompted to do a personal inventory of my dream life. By facing it head-on I received powerful information about changes that need to happen. I am committed to making those changes, and to moving forward as I feel guided to move. I hope each of us becomes more of who we came here to be. We certainly have been reminded that our Universe is Ginormous, and that Creation is Awesome and deserving of our steadfast Attention!
"There was a kind of Zen quantumness to her thinking: the belief that everything in the universe is linked. Science might not argue with her today as passionately as I did back then. 'That's foolish, Mom. Small events can't shape larger ones.' 'Why not?' 'A connection suggests meaning, even consciousness.' 'And the universe isn't--' 'Sentient? No.' She smiled and leaned into the eyepiece [of her telescope]. 'Tell me that doesn't look alive,' she said.
I missed making a post in July. Time is a funny thing these days. I used to operate only on chronological time. Then I found a different way of experiencing time as I learned to be present in my life. Time began to move in a more curvy or spherical fashion. It was not held within the narrow boundary of one minute after another. Creative time seems to have no boundaries. Time that I spend when I feel fully centered and connected also feels boundless and open, and there always seems to be enough of it. But right now I feel like there is a blending of the two experiences. Chronological time is working with creative time to form a unique blend of what feels like a spiraling or a holistic meandering. This feels like a flowing openness.
"When each day is sacred
when each hour is sacred
when each instant is sacred
earth and you space and you bearing the sacred through time
