These are the days

THE NATURE OF US writings on the earth community, love, body, embodiment, interconnection, our planetary moment, music - and the creativity and possibilities inherent in being human.

These are the days of the endless summer
These are the days, the time is now
There is no past, there's only future
There's only here, there's only now

Van Morrison

This photo was taken on an overcast day during a very low tide. On a sunny day at high tide it would look very different, likely with waves, and the river and sea might appear as one body of water. The tides come and go yet the current remains deeper still, pouring into the sea.

Creativity is shaped by the winds of change, the reality of limitations and unfolding events. Sometimes we detour to find the vital path forward. Only day by day do we discover the shape of what is emerging. We live with the uncertainty of not knowing where it is all going. There’s only now.

While in these days there is strife and chaos all around us, we can access the wonder of the moment by being rooted in our living world. Rooted to a deeper reality than the surface news reports.

I had a moment in my front yard early this morning as I was walking in a sunny patch on the long driveway. Something deep is happening were the words that came. I am merging more with the land, I feel more of our connection now. A deeper intertwinement is occurring with nature.

I am reminded of experiencing a piece of music. When in the background while I drive or make dinner, my attention is split but I can still enjoy it. Or I can give it my full attention, and even if I have heard it hundreds of times, my full attention reveals far more of the structure and rhythm of the piece.

The full beauty reveals itself with my attention. Of course the better the quality of the music, the more nuance there is to be revealed. If I dance to that song, there will be more depth and intricacy to my movements as my body responds to the shape of the composition.

Life is like that, the underlying music can be obscured by our attention pulled in many different directions. Or we can listen to what is occurring right now, not in a podcast or on TV, but to the unfolding melody and rhythm of this moment, to the what is:

What is happening now, the beauty and poignancy of the emotions, sensations, communications in our inner landscape in relation to what is being experienced on the surface.

---

When we tune in with our full attention, there is an ongoing dance in progress, and we are being moved and shaped from a current flowing through life. As we feel that flow, we become inner directed, we negotiate life from trust, with a primal knowing of where are true nourishment is arising. Our perspective changes. We align more deeply in ourselves, feeling our own unfolding as the primary news.

Speaking of the news, since I started writing this a few days ago the bombing of Iran began. While I pay attention enough to be aware of developments occurring worldwide, my own discover process is where I return again and again.

I feel there is a subtle shift happening within our bodies and in connection with nature, which if nurtured can take humanity to new heights. It depends on taking the road less traveled, avoiding AI, and becoming both more human and more divine at the same time, heaven on earth. Not being blind to what is happening, but forging a different world.

Recently with the warm weather I have been barefoot in the yard, grounding and feeling the earth. From past experiences I know I can suggest a direction to the earth and be heard; I have been wanting more felt connection:

Last night lying in bed I was gently breathing into my lungs and neck. When suddenly I began to feel the breath coming up from the soles of my feet, being breathed from outside my body, from the field of the earth even though we weren’t in direct contact. It felt great, soothing, my legs felt loved, and it was an unexpected delight. Yes more of this please. I will report back on further developments.

Now I am incorporating breathing up from the soles of my feet when grounding on the earth and exhaling back to the earth. With gratitude!

Thank you for reading along today. I hold you in my heart. May we all discover the endless possibilities of being human in a body during these times.

Here are the full lyrics from the great Van Morrison with the song below them.

These are the Days

These are the days of the endless summer
These are the days, the time is now
There is no past, there's only future
There's only here, there's only now

Oh your smiling face, your gracious presence
The fires of spring are kindling bright
Oh the radiant heart and the song of glory
Crying freedom in the night

These are the days by the sparkling river
His timely grace and our treasured find
This is the love of the one magician
Turned the water into wine

These are days of the endless dancing and the
Long walks on the summer night
These are the days of the true romancing
When I'm holding you oh, so tight

These are the days by the sparkling river
His timely grace and our treasured find
This is the love of the one great magician
Turned water into wine

These are the days now that we must savor
And we must enjoy as we can
These are the days that will last forever
You've got to hold them in your heart.
