Each moment in life, NEW. Never happened before, and will never happen again.

And yet it seems easy to miss so many of these MOMENTS.

Pre-occupations hold sway. Filters of the mind – unresolved issues, what has been, what will be – haunt our consciousness.

And they hide the MOMENT from view.

And yet there it is, for us to experience.

Through the unique vista of our eyes, to capture, be enthralled by, entranced by.

Part of a never ending SEQUENCE of moments, that are part of the line of LIFE.

You might say, ‘So what! I’m being, and doing stuff!”, and thats fine.

But a MOMENT could be a doorway into the untapped of oneself.

The paths least travelled.

Entry point into a new self.

The self who experiences. Lives. Senses. Engages.

An un-discovered self.

It’s all there, waiting to be tapped into.

And losing oneself in the moment, this moment, may be a catalyst.

For the moments pass so quickly, if we don’t pay attention.

And with it the magic of life and living!

NOTE: This post attempts to capture the spirit of the DAWN LIGHT. The Light of Awakening

Yes, every day is unique. A never happened before magical happening, making itself manifest daily.

Yet it doesn’t always feel that way.

Some days, the overbearing gloom of late autumn combined with lockdown can make it hard to appreciate the possibilities coded within a new day.

Sometimes it’s enough to manage our self-care, and make sure we are okay in the midst of many challenges.

And yet… the Dawn Light has an irrepressible nature.

A shaft of light that beckons us to see things in a new way.

Even in the midst of withdrawal and containment.

It’s like a beckoning hand inviting us to see our life, or our daily routines from a different perspective.

Or a prompt that suggests we take a walk, and then unexpectedly, we glimpse buildings that perhaps we have previously ignored, from a different angle.

An angle that shows those buildings in a new light.

The new light being The Dawn Light, the light of AWAKENING.

This subtle shift of perspectives, however small, allows new flashes of light to enter into our stream of consciousness.

Light which refreshes the inter-connected cellular network, and thus allows us to move out of gloom, even if only for a moment.

But it’s a precious moment, as that shaft of light is remembered, because of its causative effect.

Thus prompting us to seek more of these moments in the future, such is the micro-uplift they cause!

So remember… one moment can be enough.

One moment when you are able to step aside from the habit and the routine, and see and experience daily life through fresh eyes.

And bring to our inner world the natural elixir that prevents overbearing gloom holding sway!

Imagine this day, today, was THE day. The day you have always been waiting for. The day where you said, ‘One day I’m going to…’

The day when all your senses are completely alive. When you are not dwelling on the past. Or preoccupied with the challenges of the future.

But the day when you see as if seeing for the first time. When you hear as if hearing for the first time. When you smell as if smelling for the first time. When you touch as if feeling for the first time. When you taste as if tasting for the first time.

Then on top of each sense, you experience the symphony of seeing and hearing together, or seeing, hearing and smelling all at the same time. No interference upon the senses.

Well, here we are. This is it. This is the day. The day of the Awakening.

Breathe in the intoxicating autumn air. And embrace the uniqueness of this day. This hour.

This moment. It has never happened before. And will never happen again!

Dawn is the light of Awakening. Awakenings are special things, like a shaft of light has seared into our consciousness.

Awakenings offer perceptions and insights into who we are, and why we do what we do. They allow us to see the truth about ourselves.

And they are also the herald of change and new possibility.

Without Awakenings we would possibly never change, grow or develop into the person we can be.
