Now is a very important and unique opportunity to really live on purpose.
When I was a kid,
My sister and I played a game called Let's Pretend.
And we would just put on rolls at the drop of a hat.
Let's pretend I'm this,
Let's pretend this is happening.
But let's pretend you have a monk to live.
What is most important to you now?
What do you want to do?
What feels most important to say?
How do you want to share your energy with people in your life?
How can you make the moments count?
So the thing is,
In this mystery of life,
We don't know when our last month is or our last moment even.
We take it for granted that we're here,
But life is a passing ephemeral experience.
But here and now,
We can live on purpose.
Live in our authentic power,
Letting our lives match our hearts.
Letting our actions align with what's most important to us.
Not what we're afraid of,
What other people will think about us.
Not just to pay the bills.
Not for any reason other than because it feels right.
And this isn't a fairy tale.
Of course there are things we need to do that are not fun at times.
But if that's the bulk of our lives,
It's imperative to change our behavior and change our thinking.
And if you knew that in a month you would no longer be in your body,
You would no longer be in relationship to the people that matter most to you.
You would no longer have the things that you're so attached to,
Which include your body.
In this situation,
You might come to a realization that now is this potent,
Powerful moment where you can give from your very heart.
You can give from the deepest part of you and share the energy of love and compassion,
Kindness,
Real authenticity,
And bless the world with the light that you are.
Not the facade,
Not the idea of who you are,
Not the things that can change so easily,
The things that the ego grips into,
But really being who you are,
Which is love,
Which is light,
Which is connected and really one with everyone and everything.
And knowing that and living in that way,
Having no enemies,
Living from love.
This isn't flower children music or the 60s,
Yet they were on to something beautiful.
A lot of the people in that time got it and here we can too.
We're not separate and we can show up as a part of the whole,
Living our unique purpose as a unique expression of the one by giving,
By loving,
By living in line with our hearts.
I hope you'll do that even on some small level today.
Don't choose fear,
Choose your heart.
Align with what feels right inside and let that show up outside through you.
