last week was one of chaotic energy
with opportunities to notice the power of embodied creation–what it feels like to be human and in this body and join with the creative forces of the universe
the turbulent waters of our lives
stir us and in that stirring, an awakening
if we allow it
and if we are interested in life, then we come to know
living is to make friends with the waves of turbulence
learn to surf
ride the waves
as they crash down upon you and flail you about
and also gently cradle in you in the earth’s rhythms
your original lullaby.
in the moving waters of our life,
we can feel the impulse of our soul’s desire
when we care to notice it
and then we learn how the universe rises up to meet us there
as we ride the waves of life
in creation.
as often happens, a quote comes to mind just as i come to what feels like a closing. i love this. i imagine a conversation beginning. like i’m passing the talking piece. this time, to my teacher nietzsche. he picks up the piece and utters:
“one must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.”
and then, puts the piece back in the center.
