Awaken to experience

Awaken to the wondrous nature of your experience of right now. Let yourself be, let life be, let it all be as magnificent as it is.

Goals and specific objectives are good, useful, satisfying to reach. But there is more to life than knowing what you want and achieving it.

Turn yourself toward the full experience of what is already. Let go for a while of needs, wants, desires, plans and strategies, and sink into the lush, enveloping bliss of existence.

Reacquaint yourself with that part of you where all is well and will ever be. Linger for a time as you energize and refresh your spirit.

Feel not merely what you or anyone else expects you to feel. Feel the authentic, uncorrupted feeling of being you, here and now.

Allow yourself to be swept away for a while by the beauty of pure experience. Then carry with you the new strength you gain as you move on through your life.

— Ralph Marston
