simultaneity

"you are simultaneously mothers and daughters, fathers and husbands, friends and sisters and teachers and humans and spirits.


you are simultaneously operating at a basic, biological level -- breathing (in, out, in, out) and beating (lub, dub, lub, dub) -- and at a macro level, as a part of the grand cosmic dance we are all engaged in.  


you shift your focus from daily life (what is that smell?  use the turn signal. did I forget to turn off the oven?) to the wide universe (who am I?  why am I here?  what are my lessons for this life?).


thinking at a macro level brings perspective.  use it.  when you feel bogged down or annoyed by the minutiae, remember to pull back and view it from the distance of spirit, the distance of "what part does this play in the everything?"  this will help you ease through your life.  all you need to do is remember to shift your perspective."

like the trees/ forest thing?


"exactly."

so we should place less importance on our lives?


"just don't get stuck in the biology.  remember to bring spirit into it.  give yourself perspective on it all."

gotcha.  thank you, millie.
