Albert Schweitzer, a childhood hero of mine, impressed me so much with his reverence for life that decades later i included it as one of the practices of my SHERO acronym… i began this year with an intention of being in the moment intimately connected with the all that is in the space surrounding me, of being reverence…

today, i’m luxuriating in the practice of being reverence as divine play, yes, reverence as the play of contemplating and connecting the dots of whatever images, feelings, sensations, re-memberings, visualizations, of whatever is in this moment… reverence as play of witnessing grandmother spider weaving the web of exponentially intricate interconnection, a geometric progression as amazing as the hundreds of thousands of processes going on in our bodies sacredly, secretly, silently, softly, superbly right now, in this moment…

i’d love your pausing with me for a moment of play, a moment of being reverence, a moment of zooming in and zooming out, of deepening, of intimacy as into me i see, a moment of being fully alive, a moment of being reverence for life, reverence for all that is… oh, the places we’ll go…
