& then: listen
Been to our usual August Maine trip, to New Jersey for a wedding, and going on our annual NH golfing trip — busier than I have been in years. And happy. And, as of this morning, I have an intention to write. (HA HA! you say?)
from a meditation podcast today:
grow and evolve
nature is constantly expanding
Today’s desires (creative acts — one of life’s main goals 🙃), wishes, and intentions — hopes, dreams, and aspirations — turn the present into the future. (Interesting, because CSL’s reading today was precisely about the Present. Love synchronicity. 💕)
… in it alone freedom and actuality are offered … CSL – TSL
yet yesterday’s podcast resonates within, & i ponder
often I get so much clarity after the fact. why?
Many of us carry a quiet feeling that is difficult to describe. … Toward greater authenticity, connection, meaning.
This feeling is what we call longing.
… experience it as a form of wisdom. Longing often appears before clarity. (Writing verbatim from the podcast. I had no idea!) It is the heart recognizing something important before the mind can explain it.
What possibility, relationship, or way of being feels quietly alive beneath the surface of daily life?
Deepak Chopra
