Individual Brush Strokes

"The canvas for your work of art is your every day life."

Eckhart Tolle

We are an artist creating impressions upon the canvas of life.  Too vibrant or fading into a pastel, we experiment with still life or an abstract painting.  It is tempting to glance at the work of others, but energy is to be used for personal unfolding. 

When we pay attention to authentic rhythm we create a cadence which can be applied to action, contemplation, and living.  We come into balance and discover a flow to carry us where we need to be.  If we remain aligned, we are more inclined to advance uninterrupted.  

Individual brush strokes are a reflection of experience, impression, and perspective.  At times colors can be blended, but with an artist's eye, we avoid muddying reflections and patiently wait for the paint to dry.

Each day offers a new template or a scene to view.  With careful assessment, we continuously move forward, sensing when we are done and when we need to begin anew.  We can do this only when we accept responsibility for what we create.
