Sunrise ,Sunset and the energy of the hours in between. And then there is the night. Let's face it life has many hours for mystery. Alas, today is a new day new month and the sun has risen. Today I give thanks for life : the sanctity of, the potential of, and the glory of. Stay tuned for my recap of "Irene" and the strange allies one makes during times of preparation.
Today I leave you with this simple exploration. We live in a society where images are collected used for advertising and all the tones that promise desires ranging from humor, sex, innocence, romance, health, prosperity, fear, youth, travel, longevity, and the list goes on. How many images have you collected that speak authentically to you? peel the onion and see your truth and not just some other person's superimposed image or perspective of what makes them feel good. How would you feel if you carried an image of peace on the bottom of your feet? I want to know what is your inner image of peace today? A meditation for you from me.
Sit down in a comfortable chair and feel your feet. If you close your eyes what does peace feel like? Take your time don't rush, stay with your breath. Let your shoulders lift up toward your ears on your inhalation and pause them there. Exhale and now let your shoulders drop back down to their normal resting place on your ribs. Be grateful for this breath, bless it with love. Do not grasp onto any feelings or thoughts of judgement. Just see what color peace looks like to you. What does it taste like? Feel your fingertips and gently grasp the texture of peace. Does it have sound? Keep your breath free and easy for a little while and explore . When you are ready open your eyes and write down any discoveries or make your own manifestation to live with this image.
Google Jerry Garcia singing "Eyes of the World" . Make your own film, write your own song, paint your own painting, hug your people with peace in mind.
Your writings are from the very depth of your
ReplyDeletesoul. Your words are pure and genuine. You
captivate the core within me. Your soft and
sweet visions of life are breath-taking. I
can visualize your face with the portrayal of
love for life and the nature that it envelops.
I find deep comfort in the "voice of your
true spirit" Your enthusiasm and caring for
plants and flowers from the earth reaches out
to me with delicate and sincere hugs.
I thank you for your gift of meditaion in
the inner search of peace. I proceeded to
do this calming exercise. In my venture of
slowly and honesty, I discovered that my peace
'color' is opaque......no sound; feeling of
ecstasy.
I am blest to have these moments and
opportunities with the reading of your
'blogs' connecting with your readers, your
core.....your enlightening spirit. Thank you.
Hawkeye
Long live Jerry!
