A neat thing happened this morning: my Twitter friend Harry (@smosco) sent a video he’d recently created “Moments of Solitude” and as things are in the wonder of now, I was drafting a post about nurturing our right now moments. So enjoy as you read on….
I’m staring out at a very damp and moist rainy day, celebrating the care that the flora and fauna will feels as they quench their thirst for an overdue drink 🙂
I’m touched by the recognition of how the rain cares for the flora and fauna.
They’ve not per se reached out for it.
They’ve not per se barked loudly “Hey, we’re thirsty, Bring on the rain!”
But there it is…quenching their thirst, moistening the ground all the same.
Have you ever noticed that in life, we get the same kinda quenching and moistening?
Lately I’ve been giving a lot of thought to what supports, nurtures, and adores each one of us…how we can each be more mindful of letting ourselves feel that influence 24/7.
You know? For me, that “letting myself feel’ nurtured, adored, cared for has everything to do with how I base my day, how I base my moments, how I acknowledge what is governing the universe.
Each and every morning and several times throughout the day, I take moments–sometimes at long length, sometimes just a few–to establish in my thoughts what is owning the moment, gracing and steering and caring for my life, carving and sculpting my moments, my being.
For me this power is a sense of universal Divine Love, not only caring for me but for each and all.
And when I begin my days aligning my thought with the constancy of its care, something major shifts.
All sense of me having to figure out, me having to be the architect, me having to be the sculptor, me having to be anything lets go.
Instead what pours in is this knowing that my days and moments are about listening to the nudges that come deep within, heeding them, and walking forward one step at a time.
How do you nurture your now?
