There are moments in this whole crazy process where I don't know which way is up.
Which way to turn, to find that which makes me whole.
And there are moments of crystal clarity and peace. Beautiful moments which slip over me in the stillness sometimes, when I actually stop moving and get into the space of allow. Surrender.
I am looking deep in my heart, seeking to find the spring of my own soul. The throne of my spirit. As I practice my meditation I am filled will a profound feeling of gratitude for all the things in my life. I have been gifted with a amazing partner. Someone who has brought the true meaning of faith into my life. I have never been afraid of life's challenges. I have always felt in my heart that somehow, I came equiped for all the roads I would be asked to travel. When he showed up in my life, it was like I had always been waiting for him. Like we had known each other a thousand lifetimes. Someone who loves me and my children. Who loves and supports us all.
My children are doing amazing. They both got honours on their report cards last week. My youngest in five subjects, my oldest in six! I am so very proud of them I can't even tell you. They are growing up to be kind and gentle with great senses of humour. They are tolerating the whole diet process and well, the pills are a constant struggle, but it is the fabric of our life. All of it.
I sat this morning watching the first beautiful sunrise reflected on the house behind mine, full of pinks and oranges, and I was filled with a feeling of awe. And a messsage not to waste a single moment of what I have been given. To dive into life without fear, and without regret. Life is to be savoured, all of it, the bitter, the sweet. There is nothing to be divided out as "off" or "bad ". It is all part of the experience. Without the difficulties, the joys would be halfed. The subtle different tastes are not meant to overwhelm the dish, but to blend and enhance the entire flavour. Without salt, sugar has less taste. It all has to be there for us to get the full experience of what we are asking for. I want the whole experience of life.
And so each night I set aside a bit of time to empty out my vessel. To sit in the stillness, to allow, to flow,
to pray that those that I love know how very deeply I love them. And to give thanks for the love that surrounds me in this space. To savour the flavours of my life with complete abandon. And in the space I create within myself I feel the beautiful sensation of life rushing in.....
In love and light,
Kathryn
