Nothing happens by chance
We are water…of course water is regenerative for my soul. This is how my shower ponderings began today. Relishing in the steam enveloping me, I dropped into myself enough to feel my pores swallow the soft beads of water - I imagined my energy being recalibrated by the negative ions. The shower is where I have moments of clarity and true introspection. Today, I am profoundly in my feelings; it’s a big day, a day for existential thoughts. I felt a warm wave rush through me as I pictured all the other human beings on earth having a moment with themselves at the exact same time and I felt inextricably connected to them. How incredible it is that in a world of so much noise, solitude cannot escape us. We cannot escape ourselves. Every person has this opportunity - the chance to soak up their own self, feel their existence deeply, connect with their essence - this launched goosebumps all over my body. Then, my mind pivoted: isn't it funny how almost every day begins the same? we get blindsided by the best, the worst, and the mundane in life. Today was one of those days.
