Discourses and musings from a second Saturn return

A Moment of Time

A moment of time………..we miss most of them.  I’ve started doing things differently so I would have to be in the moment, to be present to what I am doing.  For instance, I usually fumble through the morning coffee ritual in exactly the same way, I don’t have to think about it, I do it the same way every morning.  Now, as I grab the jar full of beans to measure out into the grinder I appreciate the smell, knowing just how much to put in and so on.  There is a pleasantness to it, and this morning, because I was in the moment I heard my body say to me:  why don’t you switch to Green Tea………I was pretty surprised.

I’ve begun changing all of my automatic rituals in order to be aware of my life on a deeper level.  What I have noticed about this is that I enjoy the little things more, because I am there and not wishing I was somewhere else.  And also, that my own deeper wisdom has an opportunity to speak to me.  I can’t hear it that often when I’m somewhere else.
