Available to Receive

“Good morning,” I say internally to the world as the sun’s rays beam into my eyes & I position my garden chair to the precise spot to receive maximum sunrise exposure.

“Thankyou” for another day.

The gift of these mornings.

While I can’t feel another person’s energy, I sit. I look to the clouds moving overhead, already now blocking the sun from view. I watch the plants dancing as the breeze flows between & around them.

I pick up my journal & pen & I breathe deeply. I listen to the birds singing & calling. I energetically hope for inspiration. Nature as my muse.

Remind me of my being. Remind me of the vastness & miraculousness & magnificence of simply having this day, this moment, this life.

It begins.

Ive felt this so many times now. The gratitude. The pleasure. The reverence for it all.

The aliveness available to witness & participate in at any moment by attuning my focus & dropping fully into a space of receiving the now.

My self enquiry~ “How can I open fully to receive this moment of my life?”

I feel my perception widen, my heart space expand, my breath become deeper, wider, fuller.

I’m not searching — I’m just available to receive.

The immersion deepens. Birdsong becomes louder. The breeze meets my skin more deeply, the green of the leaves is so much more vivid.

Once again, the Vaseline has been removed from my eyes & I can see clearer.

I can see.

I can feel.

I am here.

The clouds part & few rays shine through. I close my eyes, inhale deeply & again hear myself say internally, the words that I so often feel with all my being —

“Thankyou.”
