We are a gift, yes we are! We are beautiful, holy and have much to give to one another. Our words, actions and those very murmurings hidden within our thoughts are crowns, waiting to be placed on the throne of life.
The day is not over, yet if I follow my path back to waking I can find where I have left my crown…my touch, my words, my thoughts….were they worthy of the throne, the moment life gave me? Looking back, biting my nails I wonder…I believe the more aware I am of the moment at hand, the easier it will be for me to leave a crown and not my flippant little self!
The jewels of daily life, the rubies, pearls and diamonds of moments alive…are the day to day simple moments…feeling the changing season kiss my cheek, turning on the faucet and having hot water wash over me, opening our eyes to one another and exchanging a crown, a smile.
What are the bijoux in your couronne?
photo: a few bits of gild remain on this 18th century, French, hand-carved, wooden crown. It probably was used over a statue’s head in a church.
