An Inspired Life


An inspired life: 

an inspired life, that's the true gift, quietly so, as if simply being alive and aware of fragile possibilities, nothing promised, and yet here we are - gifted with existence. With this every moment is a grand expression of life, artistically lived in an easy and natural way, without pretense, and authentic even in apparent flaws.  

it's an inspired life by simple virtue of our existence, that by chance or perhaps some divine favor given, we've somehow gained our presence here, and more, being aware, conscious of our unique position, we are now able to live a life of joy and deep appreciation. 

an inspired life, indeed.

and that's the twist, truly it's all inspiration, not of an individual talent, but of life itself in constant giving, expressing itself through such grace and beauty that to find ourselves alive and aware is to be in awe of our very own presence here, knowing ourselves as part of this vast expression of life, an aspect of some continuous, infinite design of love and inspiration. That's the inspired life, being appreciative of theses fragile possibilities, each moment being so unique in the gift that it offers, never again able to appear in such a beautiful and inspired way. To see this, just this alone and nothing more, is to find ourselves caught by inspiration, an aspect of its bloom without cause other than the joy of simply being alive and kin to earth and air, a flower too of pure existence. We are life in its every pleasure, delighted by our presence here and expressed through the mystery of our own cause and wonder.

Yes, an inspired life, indeed.
