Happening

Happening:

life is happening, always now and constant - this seems so obvious, but in in fact it's often overlooked from our everyday perspective. It seems that life is something we join with, participate in, and get to choose our favorite activities, people, moods, and challenges. We believe ourselves slightly removed from life as something special, set apart by our control and navigational skills of living. 

yet all there is...is life. 

we are thick in the midst of it, without true control, and it only seems we get to choose what happens. What we have is our response, an artful means of arranging our perspective to the spontaneous flow of life. There is only what is happening each moment, now, and we are not witness too it but fully belong to its display. 

we are life - happening. 

this isn't always lost to us, there are times we find ourselves so immersed in certain participation that we forget all but this belonging. We remember it as something special, a moment of true meditation, a deeper touch of life than the moment found before. Yet it's no more real than any other moment, no more special than the infinite opportunities we're given to be noticed. Life is nothing if not full of miracles, a synchronicity of events to astounding to fully comprehend. 

any moment could prove to be a true meditation. 

so, this is simply a call to remember - life is happening, always now, and constant. We are life, and every bit a part of this great event.  

and just as astounding.
