Reverence

A deep and abiding respect for…

I love how this word rolls on my tongue, sensuous, implying for me threads of awe.

To be reverent towards life. 

To be reverent as the way we live and engage. 

Imagine all humanity being reverent? Having the capacity to put aside fears, the need to survive, the egoic urge to be superior to anyone or thing.

Imagine that we stepped to the podium of our life reverent. 

That each person we interacted with, no matter the occasion.

Reverent.

Towards those in our business. Reverent.

Towards the future, and the past. 

Reverent.

Towards ourselves. Our body being….reverent.

To enter a room, a conversation, the ocean, reverent.

Towards the birds swooping, the lizards crawling, the beetles, reverent.

This is the life I long for, and towards that I will practice reverence. I invite you to join me.
