How often have you gone through your day and upon looking back, you find yourself reflecting on anything meaningful that happened in your experience? If you are like many of us, unless there is anything catastrophic or sensational that captured our attention, our days are passing mirrors of one another.
I find it fascinating that the level of appreciation for new experiences for many of us is expressed as low or non-existent. Many of us live as if we have lost our ability to be in awe with the wonderful surprises the present brings to our lives. When I watch children delight in the moment, I feel a tinge of sadness that many of us did not carry that joy through our growing years. When we make any attempt to be childlike again, how many of us experienced any sort of reproach to behave like responsible adults? So, is it any surprise how our days pass us by without a sound?
Whatever is remembered in our experience is a milestone marker in our lives. Many a times those milestone markers tend to mark unhappy and unpleasant moments. We remember the unkind words said to us, the unpleasant experiences unkindness and rage generate, and the bereavement tragedies and humiliation bring into our lives. We remember the pain, the sorrow, the hurt, the loss.
Yet, it takes a sense of finality in our lives before we once again could appreciate the beautiful presents Spirit brings us…the abundance in our lives, the enjoyment of our world, the pleasures of our bodies, the smile of passers-by, the loving hands of friends and family supporting us, the wonderful ray of sunshine when all is well, the gentle ocean and mountain breeze reminding us of our senses, the glorious sunrise and sunsets of our inner and outer lives, the graceful sways of billowy branches mirroring our growing pains. When we realize time is about to run out in our lives, we are prompted to remember the love of our children, the caring warmth of our beloveds, the roller coaster rides on which our souls journeyed and collected memories throughout our lifetimes.
Whatever is remembered in our experience is a milestone marker in our lives. Let these milestones be abundant that we have much to remember at the end of our days and know how loved we are.
