A moment of contemplation with Mark Nepo

One of my favorite spiritual writers is Mark Nepo.

Today, I'd like to share with you a contemplative and inspirational quote of his, from his book, The Book of Awakening: Having the Life You Want by Being Present to the Life You Have.

“The further I wake into this life, the more I realize that God is everywhere and the extraordinary is waiting quietly beneath the skin of all that is ordinary.

Light is in both the broken bottle and the diamond, and music is in both the flowing violin and the water dripping from the drainage pipe.

Yes, God is under the porch as well as on top of the mountain, and joy is in both the front row and the bleachers, if we are willing to be where we are.”

-- Mark Nepo

Breathe in these words.
Be still and listen.
What do these words evoke in you?

Can you be open to witnessing the extraordinary, even in the seemingly mundane of the ordinary?

Abundant Blessings and Namaste.
