Be Present With What Is Arising

Be Present With What Is Arising

I saw something so beautiful this morning I had to write it down

I was at the bus stop waiting for a bus—— to get out home to avoid what unpleasantness I experienced these last few days——- to get away from those emotions I have been trying to manage, yet don’t seem to be getting anywhere

So I get out

While waiting, I saw a Japanese mother and her young daughter waving at the opposite bus stop

And I followed their wave and saw another Japanese mother and her daughter opposite

This young girl at my end called out to her young friend xxx chan! As they do in Japanese. And the pair opposite waved back with all their might

The young girl opposite was trying to get her message across too

I saw the traffic lights turning green and the engines rating to go

And then the two girls who were trying to traverse the gap in between—— with what seemingly important things to shout across the road

How noce

It brought me a smile

Young girls and their wanting to connect—— with the distance in between

Beautiful isn’t it?

And I was pleased with myself for being able to get hold of beauty in this moment

And to be, just be with what is arising

Many times, we are so caught up with our emotions our past our own psychological drama our perceived pain and our interpretations we miss out our moments we miss out life

We miss out the real teachings in these moments offered by others

Thank you young girls , for wanting to communicate across the road, with all that power you have

Life truly is, and happens in the moments.
