Episode 115: Life like a song! More on Living Purposefully

This week Erin and Mary continue the conversation about living purposefully, by discussing –

The Levels of Purpose:
existential, social, symbiotic, spiritual, and evolutionary.

Heady stuff? Yes,

but no –

as ever, they are having fun with jamming on how the Mystery manifests in the commonplace
as we each attempt to bring our best to our daily life endeavors.

Consider …

That the idea of “surrender” to a Higher Power means that we take refuge and comfort within it.

There is a different way to view our purposes besides what we’re doing 9-5;

even if we are sidelined by an illness or an injury,
we get to practice being fully present and breathing, which is a great service to all.

Our spiritual teachers are those people nearby us whose gifts of character extend themselves to us like sunlight

Our souls have contracts and agreements with other souls to help each other out, symbiotically.
It feels natural to lift each other up and to reflect the strength of our spirits for each other.

As we live and harmonize our levels of purpose, day by day, we add our song to the worthy chorus of human expression.

SING IT … All out!

Episode 114: Living Purposefully & Our Common Human Purpose

Are you strung too tight?

Need to let go and relax a little?

Or are you stuck and slack

and overly mellow… and in fact you need to get a move on and make some changes in your life?

Like the strings in a musical instrument, living with grace and purpose is a matter of consciously tuning our “essential tension,” day by day.We can live life like a dusty old fiddle with sprung strings in grandfather’s attic, or as a gleaming well-strung Stradivarius in the hands of a master.

What does your current state look like?

 

Enjoy these fresh ideas on living purposefully:

–  “Relax/Get Going!“  Purpose is a paradox between acceptance of things as they are and motivation to change things the way you want.

– Our common human purpose is to learn and to love (a lesson taught by Mary’s delightful old Aunt Ann). This is a very enjoyable story.

– Every single person is capable of cultivating and expressing their own unique brand of glory!
