Sacred Living As An Experiment
As always, before I connect here by writing, I reflect on how powerful connection among humans can be. This morning as I read some poetry, I connected with the energy of one of my favorites, Edna St. Vincent Millay, as well many known as Anonymous whose words have survived well over 2000 years. When I picked up this glorious book titled World Poetry from the thrift store, I reflected on the fact that every word in that massive tome was a choice some human made. Further, every word chosen by the editors to include was a choice they made; choices, the editors shared in the foreword, that all seemed to have great import for them as the team assembling a collection representative of world poetry through the ages.
Our choices do indeed have import. Every choice we make shapes the world. If we consider the power of choice, that power can certainly be considered sacred. One of Merriam-Webster’s definitions of sacred is “entitled to reverence and respect.”
Recently, my consciousness design has centered on the concept of sacred living, that every choice has import, that every choice is entitled to reverence and respect. Although this can feel incredibly deep, we can also invite playfulness into our sacred living.
If every choice we make is sacred, how are we shaping our life with our choices?
I invite you to play with sacred living as an experiment. Notice which choices feel easeful. Tune into which choices feel challenging. Reflect within yourself how you are choosing to direct your power. Invite yourself deeper into the foundational why of your choices. Get curious and invite more self-intimacy.
Make your life a dynamic and fruitful experiment leading to center what is truly most potent for you in your consciousness design.
Allow your choices to have import. Invite pleasure pauses to encourage reflection. Infuse your choices with your most centered why. Notice the energetic shifts. Notice how every choice to make shapes your life and the world around you.
May you bring even more intention into your sacred living. Be the experiment, awesome one. ~K.
