A Breath of Fresh Air

I feel like today’s day is a new breath of fresh air, as cool as the first wave of water washing over you as if you were to enter a lake on a morning. That first wave instantly washes away any fury, or expectations and fully cleans your slate just by a simple burst of unexpected cold on your body. I guess, change of temperature acting as a pain reliever doesn’t just apply to your internal body functions, but emotional as well. With a clean slate, it then allows you to enter its waters and enjoy the cleansing and emotional balance that it presents you with. This world is so big compared to us, and its size is what allows it to forgive us our little thoughts of negativity and encourage those of compassion. Its like a big, huge, kind old man/woman that you just want to squeeze and hug because of all the love that it presented you with, and all the caring. Because this world cares about you, just like a parent would about child. And today its giving me a breath of fresh air and a clean slate to start on. I want to fill my lungs with its beauty and wisdom. I want to fly with that breeze, with those birds, and release the only pretended-to-exist fear. I want to feel this freedom that is filling up my mind, and encourage it in me and others. I want to open my mind, and invite the world in, “Hi, my name is Kate, or maybe today – it is whatever you want to call me, I’m not limited by my name, or time, or expectations, or freedom. Not even by ability, because that limitation is only created in the mind.” Something reminded me of a quote from a movie, “Time is not important, only life is.” What does it mean to live by that quote? Does it eliminate fear? Of death, of rebirth, of not having enough time? Does it eliminate fear of consequence? Or does it shrink up time to such a pointless seed, that it only encourages the thinking over of our momentary choices, living in the moment?
Hmm… pointless seed.. :) Another theory sprung up :)
What if everything in this world, as it was made was like a seed? Emotion, love, time, anger, evil, kindness.. everything.. was as small as a seed at the beginning. And that seed would grow only in you payed attention to it, it grew if you put that thing into importance. So what happened then? Which seeds did we choose to grow? There is plenty of love, and kindness… but why did we choose to grow evil and anger? Silly to think of it :) but in reality we really did choose to grow it. Every single action starts out like a seed, and you help it grow with your mind, the positivity of your mind acts like a light – guiding that seed in whichever direction – you unconsciously choose it to grow ;) The more light, the better it grows, and the richer you feel, feeling the world growing outside of you and on the inside. :)
