Monday's Musings...

3/9/2015

Happy Monday gorgeous hearts!  I hope the glory rays of the day filled you with much warmth and happiness.  In my travels, the sunshine was an open invitation to shuffle the iTunes library and crank open the sunroof.  After minus temps, 50 is looking like tank top weather. 

To my enjoyment, Alanis Morissette's song, Thank You began blaring and I couldn't help but feel a swirl of gratitude fill my heart.  It was one of those all over goose-bump moments.  The rawness of her lyrics cascaded over me like a gorgeous waterfall.  Healing and freeing...nothing to do but flow...I could feel the simplicity of her words unlocking possibility.  Each line was like a breath of truth from the universe....another chance to pay homage to the journey that lay ahead as well as give thanks to the bridge of our past.  How about remembering your divinity...
How about unabashedly bawling your eyes out...How about not equating death with stopping.  This stanza roused up every tear I haven't cried, every moment I forgot my divinity, and banished the concept of death as an exclamation point. 

How would we live our lives differently if we did remember our divinity?  I truly believe that each chance meeting, every planned travel, each person we come into contact with offers us a chance to BE HERE NOW...the words are so simple, but they paint a picture in our lives that takes away the insulation of impossibility and paves way for creation.  With grace and humbleness, I'm sure we could all see ourselves in some portion of her lyrics.  The willingness to travel inward and silence the busyness of our days gets us more in touch with this tender space of gratitude.  As Dag Hammarskjold shared, "The longest journey is the journey inwards."

Today her lyrics softened my ever busy mind and allowed me to drop into the 'practice of living.'  This life asks us to be present, not perfect.  Maybe we need more tears, maybe we do need to grieve it all one at a time, maybe we simply need to pause and say thank you.  The situations of our lives rarely change, rather it is the perspective in which we view them. 

I hope your week is blessed in amazing ways.  May you give thanks for every experience that asked you to let go of judgement, to open to possibility, to soften into a space of vulnerability, to simply stand as a witness in your life and love it all.

May you Sweetly Seek:)
In Gratitude,
Sarah


THANK YOU...
How about getting off of these antibiotics
How about stopping eating when I'm filled up
How about them transparent dangling carrots
How about that ever elusive kudo

Thank you India
Thank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silenceHow about me not blaming you for everything
How about me enjoying the moment for once
How about how good it feels to finally forgive you
How about grieving it all one at a time

Thank you India
Thank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silence

The moment I let go of it was
The moment I got more than I could handle
The moment I jumped off of it was
The moment I touched down

How about no longer being masochistic
How about remembering your divinity
How about unabashedly bawling your eyes out
How about not equating death with stopping

Thank you India
Thank you providence
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you nothingness
Thank you clarity
Thank you thank you silence
