As we journey upon this amazing planet filled with beauty and spectacular opportunity to experience the richness of life, our driving animation and intention is a brilliant design of love. With each heartbeat, our body performs countless tasks to provide us with a magnificent vehicle in which to explore our reality. Our minds have an infinite capacity to imagine new possibilities, along with the rational and logical capability to bring our desires into material manifestation. The earth provides the ingredients to create and sustain this extraordinary system while also being our laboratory to express the things we can conceive. All this happens with a precision that defies our present comprehension as if orchestrated from realms beyond our senses and with an infinite, intangible and indelible quality of love.
Life is an incredibly intricate and intimate interaction on every scale we can perceive or envision. From the dance of the subatomic particles that eventually coalesce into the cells, organs and structures that form our body, to their likewise combining on a cosmic scale as planets and stars of galaxies far beyond our own. Each of these building blocks share an integral part in our adventure of life and come together in such amazing ways that allow us to enjoy this embodiment. On the most fundamental level, all of this occurs in complete harmony, collaboration and cooperation to ensure that everything combines in the exact way to make life possible. Truly an unfolding story of love from time immemorial.
Contemplating these simple and basic truths, we realize that there is so much more occurring in each moment than we normally recognize. Comprehending the vastness of what we are a part of, makes our daily habits, routines, beliefs and perspectives seem impossibly small and only a tiny fragment of all that is. How can something so natural and obvious escape our awareness? We have forgotten who we are at the deepest level. Over eons of time, our conscious awareness became a focus on our outer reality to such a degree that we came to identify with it instead of our ever-present inner reality where our true sense of self resides. This is the creative realm where all things connect and where we know ourselves as beings of love.
At times, we glimpse our vastness in moments of joy, peace and heartfelt connections with each other. These are the instances where we grasp the magnitude and potential of our interconnection to life itself. They may be subtle or profound and each of them touch us with a powerful sense of something grand and precious within that we instantly and easily wish to share to everything around us. This is love in action and it is who we are. This universal love permeates all existence and we are here to embody it in its fullness.
Our physical bodies and the material world around us are a forever-changing landscape of birth and death, cycling and recycling of the particles that play their part for a time and then become something new. We all come and go as a natural part of our journey. What remains is the love we share while we are here. It is time to unite our inner and outer realities as one, and restore our compassionate creative capacity as the amazing beings we came here to be. By remembering who we really are, we know that only love matters.
