I am on a neverending quest to find new inspiration, to realize new ways of being, understanding, and living.
Recently I've noticed that it is so easy to become wrapped up in feeling emotions without ever really noticing them. What is the difference in just feeling and being aware of what those feelings are?
The difference is peace. When you are swimming in your emotions and not recognizing them for what they are it is impossible to see anything other than what is most immediately surrounding you. The moment you feel something call it what it is...anger, frustration, sadness, joy, inspiration...notice how you feel, notice what things, people, situations make you feel this way.
Today I am paying attention to everything little thing that comes to the surface (or lurks just beneath) while looking deeper to see what else could be hiding in the dark corners. I'm looking for the soul in everything. Have you ever noticed how much soul there is in nature?
A sunset, a sunrise, the star lit night are all so immensely full of soul it is awe inspiring. That is my inspiration today.
