Sitting down to see what Life wanted to drop in for this article, I kept getting a sense of a list of beautiful words. I watched a little worry sneak in – is that “okay”? Is that the “right” way to write this? Doesn’t an article have to look like “such and such”?
And yet, as I breathed and checked in with Life, that beautiful list of words kept on appearing and flowing.
I love dearly the practice tip that comes up periodically – to record words that take you to a direct experience of presence, and to listen back to those words. So, in the spirit of that tip and the wonderful quote from the Guide: “The quality of your life is determined by the focus of your attention,” here are the words Life dropped in for this article. Perhaps record these words, breathe with them and listen back; or make your own list to record and listen with!
