Reality Is a Dance of Creativity

Reality Is a Dance

Pamela Miles Creativity, Lifestyle

As we exited a (to me delightful) dance event with Damian Woetzel and Lil Buck at the Guggenheim, a man behind us commented, “A lot of that was boring, and some I didn’t understand.”

His remark made me grin as I puzzled over how he distinguished between what was boring, and what he didn’t understand.

And I loved the candor of his comment, especially given the sophisticated venue.Reality Dance of Creation

When we don’t understand, it’s easy to self-consciously retreat rather than risk looking stupid. (When we’re bored, we’ve already stopped looking.)

But the man behind us didn’t take the easy way out. He expressed himself.

Maybe it was too late for him to enjoy the performance; he could still intrepidly engage.

And help a stranger see that reality is a dance in which the audience moves.

Who’s in Charge of You?

Pamela Miles Creativity, Practice, Self-care

“Hello-o,” I sang into the phone.

“Uh, umm, hmm…who is this? Is this the person in charge?” the caller asked, perhaps flummoxed to reach a human breathing rather than a recording.

“I’m Pamela,” I said, “and yes, I am in charge of Pamela.”

We laughed.

Putting yourself in charge

That simple truth was funny at the time, but it’s no joke.

Daily spiritual practice puts you in charge of yourself. Any spiritual practice will do. Practicing consistently — every day — makes the difference.

Consistent spiritual practice opens the moment so you can see the choices you can make right now. You know, those choices, the ones that make it more likely what you want will actually come to pass.

Those choices are how we co-create our lives, how we build our happiness and health. When we don’t make those choices, we default to whatever is already in motion, whether we’re aware of it, or not.

Response-ability

No, we’re not in charge of the universe. I for one am grateful for that.

Being in charge of myself is a good fit, something I can actually do. It’s inspiring, empowering and enlivening, a responsibility I can live up to.

Build Your Spiritual Vision

Build Your Spiritual Vision

Pamela Miles Creativity

“There are dreamers and there are realists in this world.

“You’d think the dreamers would find the dreamers and the realists would find the realists, but more often than not, the opposite is true.

“You see, the dreamers need the realists to keep them from soaring too close to the sun.

“And the realists? Well, without the dreamers, they might not ever get off the ground.”… Read More
