You’ve been so well trained in the art of becoming. The next version! The healed version! The more disciplined, more abundant, more spiritually evolved version! 🌿 Whole industries are built on the gap between who you are right now and who you’re “supposed to” be getting to. Somewhere inside all that striving, the being part gets skipped.
But let this be your Sunday sermon: don’t rush past the joyous juiciness of being. 🍊 There’s a concept in many Indigenous traditions of what might be called “right relationship with time.” It encourages a continuous, cyclical return to presence over linear progress toward a single destination. Sit and simmer in being. Revel in it. Just BEING leads to becoming divinely aligned. ✨ Have you tried this lately?
Transformation isn’t something that happens once you arrive somewhere. It’s merely the quality of attention you bring to where you already are. Plants, our ever-wise counterparts, understand this fully. 🌱 A seed doesn’t become a tree by resenting being a seed. It does what this moment asks of it, and the becoming takes care of itself.
This doesn’t mean stop growing. We’re still in the Year of the Fire Horse, and the true New Year, Spring, after all! 🔥 But please allow growth to feel like living in every moment, not mucking through a performance review you’re perpetually failing.
Honest end-of-week truth to journal or reflect on: In what ways are you moving through your “mundane” life too fast to actually feel something more “profound”? 🌙
