A beautiful design

We are all born knowing. Recognising ourselves as uninterrupted love.

Watch any baby and see how they are fully immersed in wonderment, responding from moment to moment, not cognisant of any separation between self and other.

Life in motion.

There's an inevitability to the arc of life and the acquisition of language, immediately reducing us to this 'I', as if carving out apparent subjects and objects from a seamless canvas of experience.

Children, brimming with innocence and curiosity, question our acquired constructs, cutting through the unquestioned. In the earlier years of parenthood, I would make mental scribbles in my mind of quips from their tender years;

"Mummy, if we can feel our hearts, can they feel us?"

"Are all meals really Happy ones?"

"They still haven't taught me the stuff at school that I learned before I came here."

Often, when sharing these, others might smile with merriment at their naivety, but something in me knew that those little beings simply hadn't forgotten yet.

And as we take bold strides into the world, we may become overtaken at times by a sense of precariousness. A need to become, to achieve, to acquire is a dynamic force we seem to have inherited. A relentless pull that urges us to seek whatever it might be to embody a sense a completeness.

It creates an urgency, a striving and a tightness that is particularly jarring at 3am.

This feeling of fragility can be threatening. Until we see it's a remembering. The amnesia creates a disconnect and there comes a point when the magnitude of all that we are pushes against the idea of limitation, of 'little me'.

The arc of life is a beautiful design. It is a tapestry of experience; each thread unravelling to reveal the depth of our essence.

Coaching is the accepted name, but I'm not here to teach, to preach or to pass on information. I have nothing you don't. There is no knowledge you must acquire. This is merely a loving prompt to remind you what you always knew, but simply momentarily forgot.

What a beautiful design.
