A Remembering
Lately I have been feeling the deep, pulsing, intrinsic love of God within my veins
Lately I have been feeling the deep, pulsing, intrinsic love of God within my veins. As I sit in loving presence with the fullness of life, I ask Spirit how I may contribute to the harmony of the whole. Soon I remember that writing is a gift of reciprocity. A love letter I can share in hopes of returning some of the magic that life has generously offered.
I have been know to get in my head about what specific words to speak, blocking myself from authentic expression and editing away bits and pieces of my soul. But the medicine is in the heart. A vibrant energy center whispering tenderly of unconditional love, quietly cooing her musings if I am still enough to listen.
My soul in the sole of my foot. My ephemeral roots gently kiss the ground with every step. I have been afforded the gift of movement. To walk as the living, breathing embodiment of love. To share a kind smile, sowed with seed of gratitude and deep presence with all beings I encounter.
My soul is in my eyes. As I see through rose colored irises and notice the subtle details of beauty in every square inch of Earth. Beauty lies so much deeper than the surface, yet I have been gifted eyes to see its physical embodiment. And I see it everywhere. In the way the golden sun strokes a deep blue ocean as he rises in the morning. In the vibrant green leaves of my friend the money tree, thriving in the depth of winter. In a child’s toothy smile as he sees his mom for the first time in a few moments.
My soul is in my hands. I gently stroke the gifts of the natural world with my fluid fingertips as nerve endings send impulses to my brain and I feel life touching me back. I notice it in the breeze as hands dance with the wind. In the kitchen as I loving chop carrots and mushrooms that have gifted me their life in reciprocity so I may eat. In the skin on my lovers chest as he breathes deeply and wraps me in a warm embrace.
My soul is in everything. Bursting out of the containment of my body and into every crevice of this miraculous life. Thank you for this playground. For this abundance. For this gratitude. I love you, and I remember.
