Depth of Our Lives




"How are you tending to the emerging 
story of your life?"
Carol Hegedus and Frances Vaughan


Even when we say nothing, we need to be fully present.  In order for our life to unfold, we cannot repress any parts of our lovely selves.  There is no need to dwell on stories or history, but they do not need to be extended through drama or obsession.  

Life can be compared to reading a book.  The reader is aware of the book physically present, the information mentally accepted, and then we turn the page and begin anew.  We aught not skip ahead nor linger upon what has already been read.  Highlighting allows us to refresh memory, our covers can be damaged or lost, pages do become stained, and most unfortunate, we may not remain steadfast to experience the finish. 

When we actively participate in our own unfolding, we experience integrity and the desire to be true to our own authenticity.  As we grasp the importance of each moment, there is less time to dwell on experiences that no longer assist and more time to cultivate the richness and depth of our  lives.
