Magical Parts

"And suddenly you know:  It's time to start

something new and trust

the magic of beginnings."

Meister Eckhart

Over time,  we are exposed to magical impressions.  Whether it be an ocean view or the stained face of a child, an isolated incident will touch our hearts dearly.  We may quickly forget the magical moment, but it sits waiting inside of us.  It waits for more, and soon it is joined by a disappearing sunset or a moon gliding across the sky.   We hold inside ourselves words or feelings that move us to tears or exceptional deep joy.  Then there is the music, a single lyric repeating itself in our head.  Together, all of these pieces form beauty running through our hearts, minds, and spirits.

The accumulation of magical moments forms a yearning or desire.   There is no need to be a master of any art, it simply requires the focus to express sensations that have decorated our insides with fantasy and flair.  Life seems to enter alignment with our passion or desire and we are urged to take a step forward, bringing our observations out into the world.

When life encourages us to move forward, how shall we proceed?  Will we find our way through prayer, dance or song, music, writing, gardening, sharing out loud, attitude adjustment, embracing the world, trusting the Divine?  If we maintain a  willingness to be guided,  the unknown magical parts of ourselves will unfold.
