Connection

There was a time when the only thing I was sure of was the sun rising and setting everyday, and being able to watch the moon move across the sky.  If I think about it that is the only thing that was consistent in my life.  It was in those moments of watching the sunrise and set, the full moon shining down on me that I felt connected to something. In this feeling of connection I felt like I was valued.

So much of the world today is about money and numbers not people. We are forced into this society to have a plan for everything. We have to know the outcome before we leap.  We are losing our sense of adventure if because we have to see what is coming around the corner. I am a planner and it really gets my knickers in a twist when I can’t plan.

My husband is a man who doesn’t plan, he lives by his own rules and whatever takes his fancy at the time. He never worries about the outcomes and takes one day at a time. He is in tune with the world around him in a way that I hope to be one day. He has a need and the universe always provides without fail.

He said something to me the other day that stuck a cord. That I have lost my connection to nature, that only when I am at the mercy of the elements will I fully understand what it means to be part of nature. He is right I have lost that, but have a chance at getting it back in our adventures.

Last night was a beautiful night so I spent some time outside under the full moon, listening the wind move through the trees, the silence of the night and I once again felt the familiar feeling of connection. It truly is a daily practice of keeping connected….and one that I won’t let fall by the wayside any longer.

So where do you find your connection?

I have this song running through my head....it seems to fit this blog

Wising you all a beautiful week!
