As I opened my eyes at the end of this morning’s meditation, I was struck with the idea to write about magic in this post to you today.
The magic I want to share with you is my deepest prayer of late.
It’s the words I speak as I wake up each morning.
It’s the words I speak as I fall asleep.
It’s the words I speak in the middle of the night if I wake up.
It’s the words I speak more and more throughout my day as I remember to.
It’s the deepest part of my “letting go” emotional practice.
And I don’t fully want to share the words with you.
It’s not that I want to keep them to myself, it’s just that I’m afraid you won’t hear them.
I’m afraid you’ll think you know what I mean, though it's pretty likely you don't.
I’m afraid you’ll label them as something you already know and move on.
I’m afraid you’ll think you already use them enough.
I’m afraid you won’t know how to use them responsibly.
I’m afraid you’ll miss or misuse the power and magic of these words.
But these words aren’t mine.
They were shared most powerfully with me through one of the deepest spiritual practices I’ve ever learned and mastered.
They’ve been shared with most of us from many sources.
I see them on inspirational social media posts a lot.
They’re just words, and yet I find that when I imbue them with authentic and clear expression from the deepest part of me, and speak them to literally any experience I’m having…
They bring me all I could ever hope for from any experience.
I guess I’ll share them now, but please listen as cleanly as you can, as generously as you can, as reverently as you can…
And if you think you know, then you probably don’t.
So perhaps hear these words as if you’ve never heard them before, and speak them in ways you’ve never imagined speaking them before.
They’re healing. They’re freeing. They’re grounding.
They connect me like nothing else to the ever-presence of the Divine.
Okay, here they are.
I share them delicately with you now, dear reader.
Oh so delicately…
Thank you. I love you.
To this world around me: Thank you. I love you.
To this world within me: Thank you. I love you.
To the Divine vitality animating my existence: Thank you. I love you.
To this very emotion within me (whichever it is!): Thank you. I love you.
To the people in my life: Thank you. I love you.
To each and every aspect of my experience of life in this and every moment: Thank you. I love you.
To you, dear reader: Thank you. I love you.
Much Love. ❤️
