"Being solitary is being alone well; being alone luxuriously immersed in doing things of your own choice, aware of the fullness of your own presence rather than the absence of others, because solitude is an achievement." - Alice Koller

Live Your Life Like a Prayer

There are so many plans we make, intentions we have, dreams we have dreamed for tomorrow - in the future - always the next day. The future is a carrot dangling - the chocolate bar we all want and feel assured to have - the next day, no sweat. It will come as sure as the sun will rise. And yet, for anyone who has had a friend walk out on them, experienced infidelity of a lover or spouse, or sudden death of any kind - we know the difference just a few seconds can make in our lives.

Whatever plan you are making, intentions you have or dreams you dream, put them in the present tense. Create your words with a sense that it is happening NOW. Don't save your prayers for the future - your intentions draw you forward. As you begin your journey - your real journey - the life path you choose, seek to read between the lines, hear the words not said, rest in the Silence and you may find PEACE - at first a PIECE of PEACE, then enough to stitch together. You may find FREEDOM to truly live your dreams, allow yourself to let go of would, should, and could. You may find love - not the romantic kind which can leave the room, but unconditional LOVE which knows no limits - it just is - there, available for all of us. RIGHT here, RIGHT now - live your life as a prayer!
