sun

I want to live 2021 SUNTENTIONALLY; intentionally revolving around, appreciating and soaking up …the immense beauty and limitless power of the SUN.

I cherished having #OneLittleWord last year.

A word is a melodic sound. A sound is a vibration.
Vibrational tones create an energy that penetrates into
your spirit, your soul, your heart.

This year, every time I see the word SUN in a book or observe a sunbeam shining down, I shall pause and be grateful.

Sunlight draws me in like gravity, it attracts my deep attention like love and time. The sun is my teacher. I will start each day with a sun salutation yoga stretch and meditation. I will thrive on a plant-based diet nourished by the sun.

I will patiently witness sunrises and sunsets, as everything is transient. We are all only here for such a short while. Our jobs, relationships, homes, and Earthly lives are all temporary. Watching a sunrise or sunset with your complete attention is prayerful, peaceful, meditative, restful, regenerative, musical, an act of love. It’s like having one foot on Earth and one in Heaven. You are mindfully present, but somehow open to the vastness of the universe.

sun is a word you can use as any part of grammar … like skunk.
a skunk can be a noun defining an animal
a verb describing why the dog smells terrible after being skunked
or simply the smell we attribute to certain skunky beer.

I am a sun-chaser, like some people chase tornados, I chase sunrises and sunsets. I am solar-powered. I live a life of heliotropism: just pointing myself towards the SUN. I wake up early to collect sunrises in my heart and in my soul. I harness the sun’s energy, spirit and brightness. I borrow brilliance from the SUN and it makes me SHINE. The sun illuminates my brain, body, soul, spirit, I need the sunlight to survive. There lies the energy, warmth, glow, joy, majesty I crave.

Sunrises are the universes way to gift wrap this special day for you & me! I am always grateful for a new day, and it’s always a brilliant start when you rise before and intentionally watch the sunrise.

In the words of Cleo Wade
“I find what I am looking for in the outside world by embodying it within me”.
And that’s why SUN is my one little word;
next year, if I can’t be the sun, I shall at least reflect the sunlight.

May every sunrise bring you hope; and every sunset bring you peace; this year and always. ❤
