The Being of your Doing

Contrary to many people, I absolutely love the long, dark nights of our PNW winter. (I didn’t always though.)

It’s a time where, when properly attuned to, we can dive deeply into our rich inner world… and deep embodied wisdom and truly aligned direction can arise.

We winter within ourselves.

Many people see hibernating trees as dead (Twice last week people said this to me. They are only appear dead to the untrained eye. They are in fact, deeply alive within.)

This false view happens for so many people who get stuck in over-doing, over-thinking, over-serving, over-eating, over-working, over-every-thing.

We become like hollow robots, instead of embodied, alive human beings.

This is when we get to remember the power of grace.

The Being of our Doing.

Grace is ephemeral. Subtle. Intangible. Too soft for hard people, who wish to stay hard.

Yet whenever we feel or see an example of grace, we can’t help but be mesmerized.

It’s perhaps the most unspeakable of any word, and though all language does fall short of any true experience, Grace in particular is perhaps the faintest of all experiences.
