I Want To Listen; I Want To Hear!

I’ve prided myself on listening to other people and what’s going with them. I listened to my friends, my mom, my aunt, cousins, my brothers and sisters but what about me? I just want to be still and listen. I want to hear what my body, mind and heart are trying to tell me daily. I want to hear the beauty in my voice and my soul, not the desperate crying and screaming of pain from too much fat pressing an extraordinary amount of weight on my knees or the yell of a heart attack. I want to hear my body sing and speak to me about the world from the point of view I can’t see or hear traditionally. I want to hear the love songs the world sings to each of us when we listen. I want to hear the calm illuminating voice of the Holy Spirit and God’s wisdom and caring! I want to listen. I want to hear love.

I want to sit on the edge of the Grand Canyon and feel the depths of the beauty of centuries gone by; feel the natural wonder of all the energies that travailed there. Right now I’m trying to listen, I’m trying to hear all my body and the stillness can tell me today. I pray to God that I listen all day and that tomorrow I can wake up and hear just a little bit more and so on and so on until the dialogue with my heart will fill me up with something beautiful to share. I want to listen, I want to hear and then I hope I can see more clearly the rest of the world, see me. I want to listen.
