It is the creative heart that uses all of its senses.


Our physical nature as well as our spiritual nature is involved in the creative process. It is our physical senses that bring to us...the music of the spheres, the fragrance of the sage wind, the taste of a kiss on our lips, the view from distant horizons, the touch of kindness. There is a powerful connection between the physical gift of creation and the soul gift of creation. No matter how many degrees we have, there is no teacher like the gift of our physical senses that forms us from birth and expands us as we journey toward death. How dare we sleep walk through this life not listening to the cacophony of sounds, not taking the adventurous scenic route, not feeling the touches of love or breathing in the fragrance of the day. If you are sensual enough to be creative, I suspect you have experienced the heightened degrees of emotion that equip us to feel the joy of noticing, tasting, seeing, smelling and touching life as it passes by. Our senses are the raw material of the soul....whispering their message of being a passionate witness. Today's blog is to remind myself to take it all in.....experiencing more than I did yesterday.
