A very big aloha.
My name is Reverend Cindy Paolo Santana.
I've been doing a lot of thoughts about time recently.
I did an album.
Stuff was this year that had to do with time.
I think possibly because I'm getting older,
That you start to realize the importance of time and how you use time.
And that is a time for me to think of what I can create,
What I can give,
What I can leave behind.
What I can appreciate in the time that I'm here.
Now,
There's a big question in my mind.
About what happens.
To time.
If you pass on to the next plane.
And I was seeing a great movie the other day.
It was one of Steven Spielberg's early movies.
I had never seen it before.
But it was about a fighter pilot.
Who then?
War was over and he became a pilot helping people with fires and he died in a plane crash.
And he was able to go back and help,
You know,
That was his mission was to help others.
And he went back and it turns out that the time was very different in where he was.
Versus where earth people were,
What they were dwelling with.
And it was an interesting concept because time is relative.
It is relative,
I think,
To space as well.
And we don't have a way of judging how much time we have here or what time is like after we leave here.
So to me,
It's a fascinating concept.
It's amazing to me how we can determine kill time.
Maybe watching tv or something is a way to kill time or what you do with your time but Time is different when you're meditating,
When you spend time meditating.
And again,
That word spend time.
You spend time meditating.
It's very different and I find that interesting because I meditate and for years I meditate every morning.
And time unravels,
You know,
You unraveled your thoughts in time.
And that's,
To me,
A fascinating thing because your mind is really going on strong and thinking a lot.
That it might take 15,
20,
30 minutes to still your mind and to be quiet.
And to come to that place where you can find that healing.
Quiet space within to meditate.
And that is wonderful.
Kind of plateau place you can find.
In a way,
It feels timeless if you're really deep into that space.
And I have to say that is a place I love to be.
I'm not sure if you've experienced that or how.
It affects you when you meditate.
But that inner space and time.
Is so important in what you receive as you dwell into the different states of mind that you go through.
And to that inner place of peace.
I think there's an inner.
.
.
Place of peace that can be achieved when we meditate.
Which can also open the door to.
All kinds of amazing energy and inspiration and spirit seems to love to come and create through those that are open in that space.
And that's that wonderful gift that to me has been so important in creation.
That comes from the inspiration.
When I go within is priceless,
Truly priceless.
I make a practice,
And maybe you might want to do this,
I make a practice of meditating every day and then I write down something every single day.
I've been doing this since I've been a teenager since I was about 13 years old,
I write something down after my meditation.
And that creates an amazing record of sorts,
A way of looking back at where my mind has been finding inspiration and what's been coming through me and to me.
Some of those I make into spoken word pieces or songs.
I like to create from them,
You know,
And then I post them every day on my Facebook site.
I post what comes to me in a poem along with a picture that I create.
And to me that is also another form of interesting creation.
Is creating pictures.
I don't know if you know any artists who have done that,
But it's very easy now.
There's so many ways to create.
That have been coming more easily found through all the apps that are out there.
And this creative energy,
This flow of energy that comes from that stillness and that quiet within is truly priceless.
And it's a wealth,
A wealth of gifts.
It's truly a wealth of gifts.
So I'm just encouraging you to take the time.
To allow that energy of time.
To speak to you,
To come to you.
To give you something in return that you can use in the time you've got to share with others.
On this last album I did,
I wrote the words and my friend Stephen Malillo spoke it and did the music to it.
I'm going to share a piece about time that came from that.
And I just wanted to bow in the deepest gratitude for you taking the time.
To be here and to share your time with me and I hope you enjoy.
What I can share with you.
Sending you my deepest bow of gratitude and love.
And take me down.
Please stay with me.
You Oh,
What a beautiful time to the tree
