Marvel At The Awesomeness of Life
When was the last time you marveled at the awesomeness of the life you get to experience?
We live in a society that is constantly on the go, praises hustle culture, and frowns upon moving at a slower pace—this frantic life we are encouraged to live makes it easy to miss the miracles and amazing things in our lives.
For example, when you look up at the stars at night do you realize the light you see from the stars is days, weeks, years—even hundreds of years old? The light that lights up our sky each night is not from the present moment.
And thanks to telescopes we can see light from 2 ½ million years away—-The Andromeda Galaxy Is 2 ½ million light years away.
That’s mind-blowing.
And yet, most of us probably look at the stars and never give a thought about what we are actually looking at. It’s a unique opportunity to see the past in the present moment—the light is both the past and the present.
I don’t know how this helps with the alignment of your spirit, mind, body, and money on the Pursuit of your authentic life, but I think it’s really cool to think about and it leaves me in amazement.
There are not many things that I find as impressive as looking into the past, childbirth is another—but that was just a 3-time experience for me, and bringing a little amazement to life keeps it a little more exciting and brings us back to our childhood.
As children, we marveled at all types of amazing things, many of which lost their awesomeness as we got older. And while we may not want to be kids again, we can learn from our children, and our Inner Child, to keep excitement and amazement in our lives to remind us of how amazing the life we get to experience really is.
See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,
