All Moments are Key Moments And Everything Unconventional Is The Real You

Below are two beautiful excerpts from two completely different authors that capture the essence of our humanity and experiencing the truth of who we are.

The first comes from writer and theologian Frederick Buechner in his book Now and Then: A Memoir of Vocation.

“If I were called upon to state in a few words the essence of everything I was trying to say both as a novelist and as a preacher it would be something like this: Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery that it is. In the boredom and pain of it no less than in the excitement and gladness: touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it because in the last analysis all moments are key moments, and life itself is grace.”

The other comes from poet and meditation guide Sez Kristiansen in her book Healing HER: Poetry that nourishes the soul through feminine energy

“Begin to see that everything has an unconventional potential. Begin ​​to see that EVERYTHING unconventional is in fact the real YOU, and that by reaching beyond what is considered N O R M A L, you start to see yourself as you really ​​ARE and suddenly you begin to feel more and MORE ( – inexplicably – )”

And finally, poet and artist, Vironika Tugaleva reminds us that as much as we grow and evolve, life is a journey of remembering who we really are:

“To know yourself, you must sacrifice the illusion that you already do.”
