When we acknowledge that all of life is sacred and that each act is an act of choice and therefore sacred, then life is a sacred dance lived consciously each moment. When we live at this level, we participate in the creation of a better world.
~Scout Cloud Lee
There was a time each special day or season had its own time and space. Now it seems everything begins in different time periods. Some Christmas decorations were on display around Halloween and everything else before Thanksgiving.
It is important to find a balance between the buying and the donating; the giving and the receiving; the social commitments and the family responsibilities; and the public and the personal expectations.
It takes focused effort to align our inner and outer worlds. It takes deliberate planning and action to meet our needs. It requires an awareness to make every choice congruent with how we want our lives to be lived. Each and every choice builds our sacred foundation.
If we can treat each act as sacred, we will move through our actions more slowly, carefully, and with greater respect. If we can fill our days with sacred acts rather than careless deeds, our life becomes more sacred.
If we truly master the sacred steps in our life, it does not matter what season it is at all. Every day can be sacred and the world can be a better place for all.
