It isn’t what we see…
…It’s how we see what we are seeing.
We typically don’t see things as they are…
…We tend to see things as we are.
Inside of us there’s a lover and there’s a wolf.
Which one are you feeding?
Which one have you handed your eyes over to?
What’s the most loving thing you can do today…
…for your body?
…for your mind?
…for your soul?
…for your customer?
…for your neighbor?
…for a stranger?
Against such things there is no law.
Everywhere and all the time the universe is trying to teach us something, show us how reality works, and peak our curiosities.
Or to put it another way, Light, Love, and Life are always jockeying for your attention and oozing through everything.
The moment becomes electric once you enroll in the mysterious, gratuitous game of “I spy” that is to be had in the midst of all your moments.
Today, think to yourself, “everything is my teacher.”
And everything could mean…
Gardens.
Smiles.
Another’s tears.
The breeze.
Water.
Fire.
Soil.
Flavor.
Meals.
The dishes.
The pile of legos.
The laundry.
The lawn.
The stars.
Process.
The seasons.
Friendship.
Hardship.
The ocean.
Laughter.
Art.
Your pain.
Another’s pain.
The world’s pain.
Pleasure.
Sunrise.
Sunset.
AKA everything.
Did you see hurry or busy mentioned in anything above?
Then why give them your eyes, energies, and hands?
Why allow them to be your boast?
The question on the other side of the veil won’t be “What did you do?”…it’s going to be “Were you even there?”
Conversion isn’t one and done.
It’s everywhere…all the time.
Please watch.
…is happening for you.
And it’s meant to happen through you.
Call it God, call it Source, call it Energy, call it Spirit, call it Light, call it Love.
It’s A-X) and Z) All of the above.
And it’s here.
It’s now.
It’s among us.
It’s at hand.
And the only place we can ever get it is here in the now.
So don’t run from it.
If it has shown up as your life, then it’s meant for your good, for your being, and for your becoming.
We get to be human.
Say it with me.
