"Kiss the Ground"

                                                     

"Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of

ways to kneel and kiss the ground."

Rumi

This is your life or so they say. How much of your life do you love? What portion of your life do you spend doing what you love to do? And how is it that you believe you have no choice in how this life is unfolding? Notice how you are feeling when you read these questions. Chances are quite good that there is an element of discomfort.

You could create a grid illustrating the pattern of your life. You could use colored pencils to denote times of happiness or trauma. Lines could be realigned to demonstrate times you veered off your path. Then you could make note of what lesson was learned and how much you expanded beyond expectation.

And what of your mindset? Do you speak to yourself with loving kindness or harsh criticism? Does any element of hope remain in your heart, or have you given up? Do not settle as there are hundreds of ways to experience life. Reclaim your vision, return to your path and kiss the ground with joy!
