Sometime I have to remember to do nothing. Stop doing, rushing, planning, figuring out, maneuvering, scheduling, even thinking. Though that’s probably the hardest sometime–to stop the monkey mind chatter.
Just to sit and be. Or walk and be. Just to be a human merely being. We did sign up for this spiritual adventure being encased in the most obtuse form of love vibration–the earth. But it is beautiful and I yearn to see that beauty at every turn.
But this sign-up also included being a volunteer for aches, undistinguishable despair, restlessness, weariness, aging, sickness and other challenges of the day. Heartache is a sore spot and a puzzlement too.
I ache for others far away. Why? Because I feel for them. Is that codependency or empathy? Am I feeling compassion or being distracted because I can’t help and be there with them?
Who knows. I am here, I send love, I declare and chant for the wellness of all. Perhaps today I will be singing that old prayer: May we be filled with loving kindness. May we all be well. May I be peaceful and at ease and may I be happy.
