If we are fortunate, we recognize that God is not something outside of our everyday reality but that which stirs within our bones as life that flows out of our very own hands by our daily actions. Once that is understood, we know that every action begins with ourselves and what we are able to give and to receive is from this vulnerable center. It is in this giving that we receive the kiss of the spiritual.
Thank you for listening.
Music: I was contemplating this poem and surfing the internet when I found this. I ask that you to please excuse me while I kiss the sky. There is some kind of mojo at work in this finding so, in respect to that, I'm just going to leave this right here for us all to enjoy.
