Turning 60

I just turned 60 by all the calendars and calculations. I truly don’t care how old I am, and most of the time I never remember – but this year is a pretty easy number to recall!

My amazing husband offered to take me out anywhere I chose, and go shopping anywhere together etc. but that just felt so blah. Don’t get me wrong…I love being with my husband – he’s my favorite person to do things with.

It’s just my spirit wanted something else. I didn’t know what.

Settling in – inside, I pondered – and fell asleep deciding for certain my birthday would include a massage.

Waking up. I found my hands gently holding my heart. This heart of mine that has been beating since inside my precious mother’s womb. Tears of appreciation welled up and softly poured out.

My heartbeat has never stopped for 60 years, no matter where I’ve been, what I’ve done or not done, said or not said… my heart is never judging me, has never judged me and has always, always been here for me all these 60 years.

I thanked my heart in such awe and gratitude for this sacred life of mine, and I felt so grateful to know my heart as my home.

An inpouring of immense gratitude within me began to acknowledge my entire body. This precious, miraculous temple that for all these years has been, and continues incessantly working so lovingly to move me continually back into balance and maintain my wellbeing no matter what.

Surrendering into this much love filled me with an indescribable peace, and I savored these rich present moments as I received the gift of peace that surrender always leaves, blessing us.

I wanted to celebrate and acknowledge my body, be amazed and celebrate the movements my body can make, even the subtle movements of 60 years. In the child’s pose at yoga that morning, in my mind’s eye I bowed to my body with more gratitude than ever.

Perhaps the greatest gift I received this year was the reminder of Love that is Life, and that Life is meant to be mostly spontaneous, always living and breathing in the present moment awareness of Love. Love that has always been, and is always here, always holding us – even in every cell and space between our cells.

There is so much joy in spontaneous. Not planning at all – just moving with the wonder of an idea. After yoga and my massage – oh, I knew spontaneously exactly what was next. Of course, I knew! Don and I could hop on our bikes and ride along the river to our favorite waterfront restaurant, enjoy an early dinner in the warm sun facing the fabulous river on this amazing autumn day.

We plan, speculate, calculate to insure we have our life all figured out to give us the most optimal outcome… that time and future…. somewhere off in the distance.

But what if, the outcome is already here, already done, and we get to just bask in the present moment outcome? What if it is just about choosing to surrender to Love in every moment, every breath – every experience, every conversation and all that we see?

Wishing you eyes to see, ears to hear, and wide open hearts to receive the spontaneous kisses of Love that Life sends you today, and every day.

loving you,
Theresa
