Peaceful, contented, curious. Delicate… These were the words that came out during a talk with a cherished friend yesterday, when asked – how is your soul feeling? Delicate was in reference to a state of knowing a difference of feelings before now and knowing of the potential change of feelings to come. The state of delicacy is perhaps always present – yet in this moment it was particularly and poignantly so. Oftentimes throughout this year paradoxes have come into focus – they have been welcome moments of conscious discerning. Contemplation of Contrasts was / is an intentional exploration of such. Space will be held again for this, onward into the new year in some form – yet to emerge…. One such paradox that has come in and out of focus is that of significance and insignificance… Of our insignificance – and our significance: That life is (or seems) simultaneously, paradoxically and ultimately significant and insignificant. Holding these two apparently contrasting existences delicately in balance (even in harmony) whilst not diminishing (nor cherishing) one or the other – is something, a pursuit in which is asking to be explored some more. I’m looking forward to this pursuit and the exploration ahead. I’m conscious still of the delicate contrast that exists inside me. Reflecting on time, and on energy – the waves that flow and connect us all… the expanse of universe – the sea of life. On the eve of a time of giving; of gifts. I sit with this present – being in the moment, while delicately discerning and being within touch of the past and of the future. Now. Thank you for all the gifts of being human over the year.
