Creating and Holding Space

We forget to create space.
Space is like a newly fertilized field meeting the sun for the first time.

But without space… we react.

Without space… we never learn.
Without space… we drown in a sea of worries.
Without space… we identify with all that is not real.

There’s nothing fancy to creating space in life. It always comes down to the tried and true qualities of living an awakened life:

Awareness.
Clear Intention.
Beginner’s mind.
Child-like curiosity.
Sincerity and willingness.

When we make space, our intrinsic nature takes over… We investigate, we understand, and we allow ourselves to just be with whatever arises in life.

When we make space, in this way, we make space so that insight and wisdom can sprout, blossom, and flourish — and become the sweet perfume that infuses our every step.
