What does compassion have in store for you this month?
What is love asking of you today?
What could empathy be offering you in this hour?
How might joy be given the reins in this minute?
Put your ears to your chest.
Simply put, learning is the space, the practice, the river, and the discipline that happens in between our knowing and unknowing.
It isn’t a journey into more knowing.
It’s the experience through what you know into what you don’t know.
And once you make it though the unknown you exit on the other side with a little more light, insight, and awe. And, hopefully, that new bit of light shines its rays on even more WONDERful questions to journey through.
Learning sounds a lot like faith doesn’t it?
What if we were more discontent with what we knew and more content with the mysterious places in our hearts and heads?
We would get somewhere.
Somewhere beautiful.
Somewhere our knowing would have never taken us.
…means…
a more loving a you…
a more joyful you…
a more peaceful you…
a more forgiving you…
a kinder you…
a better you…
a more faithful you…
a more gentle you…
a more responsive you.
If you’re awake, you’ll start to notice every breath is pointing you towards one of these.
Allow comparison to be your red flag.
A sign that the ego is fighting to own the eyes in the moment.
The ego will always try to fool you and those you’re near out of one
another’s essence via comparison.
There’s a reason Divinity and diversity share their first three letters.
