I was petting Luna the dog and felt so inspired to write this after.
I was observing just how perfect all her hairs are. I noticed my hand petting her and the sensory experience of “feeling”. I am marveled at the incredible design work of existence.
There is no way you can convince me there isn’t something incredibly special happening right before our eyes. I am speechless in the face of it all. How intelligently designed our reality is. I am marveled. Taken aback and breathless.
When I stop to contemplate it all I cannot help but feel this ecstatic wonder. Deep excitement! Why would we take this experience for granted? How could we walk around numbed and dull? Are we drugged and hypnotized into thinking any of this is just “normal”? GAHHHHH, I want to shout it from the rooftops and mountains – “WE EXIST!!! AND IT’S EPIC!!!”
It excites me so much I want to sing. I want to turn my life into a musical. I want to dance, prance, skip, hop, and twirl into the ethers like a fairy.
How are we not LOSING it with blissful awe at the magic that is before us?
I want to be lost in the magic every day. I want to ADORE each moment, even the ones I rather not experience.
Let’s hold hands and co-create something beautiful. Something we are excited to wake up to and play in.
It’s up to us. We are the ones co-creating the systems, the laws, the roads, the cars, the twinkies.
It’s us.
It’s up to us.
It seems to me we are walking around numb to life
Rather than living in a state of bliss and breathtaking awe, our spirits are weighed down —
“Depressed” or “Oppressed” per se
It’s as if our magic and magnificence is being stuffed, suppressed.
It’s as if we were medicated.
We’ve been brought down to this dense state of being that is so far off from what it could really be!
My friend, open your eyes, BEHOLD!
Do you not see what is before you?
There IS rather than not IS
And not only is there IS, but the IS that IS is intelligent
This is mind blowing!!
It’s tremendous!!
Now, something feels off to me.
Out of all the magnificent experiences we could be having it’s as if we have been diluted – desensitized.
How did this happen?
How could we not be living in such awe that all our time is not simply spent on BLISSING out
Loving, playing, spending time together
We should be celebrating
Working together
Making it easier for each other
Making in GOOD
Why on Earth do anything other?
Live in stress? Fear? What’s even that about??
We should be hugging each other. I want to know your name. Your favorite color. And then I want to bring you flowers of that color.
I want to know your favorite food, and then make it and share it with you!
I want to sing songs with you and then swim in the water with you.
I want you to tell me your favorite joke.
I want us to dance and make art and share the abundance with the others.
MY FRIENDS, what is going on?
Are we asleep or are we awake?
Are you ALIVE??
LIVE LIVE LIVE LIVE LIVE!!!
Does not your lungs get filled with this same air? Do you not feel the ecstatic pleasure present without this fear? Without this judgment? Without this shame?
GAHHH sometimes I want to BURST from this insurmountable joy and let it spill into the heart of the world in hopes we could hold hands in solidarity–in peace, in love, and in delicious ecstasy.
Do you ever feel that too?
“Realize deeply that present moment is all you ever have.” -Eckhart Tolle
I don’t want to get There only to miss the entire life I’ve neglected by being blindly consumed with the end rather than fully and profoundly immersed in the Moment.
I want to be wildly in love with the Moment.
My love will be so alive that I will be able to taste sounds and smell colors. I want every atom that composes my existence to connect with every atom that composes the rest of existence. Pure ecstasy. No fear. No shame. No foul, no harm. Just us. Absolute joy. Innocence. Truth.
