What do you love?
Who do you love?
It might be your spouse, your dog, a smile from a stranger, a dazzling sunset, a piece of music.
It might be loving the crazy mess that is your life.
I recently read a book called F*ck Like a Goddess by Alexandra Roxo. Contrary to the title, the book is not really about sex, but about approaching life with the force of creation, to learn how to interact with your experience as a conscious, spiritual being as if it were your lover.
While it’s not my favorite book on self-actualization, I appreciated the premise.
Writing is an act of love, of observing and appreciating things others don’t notice in the world.
We artists immerse ourselves in the moment with all five senses. We savor everything there is to feel—blissful or painful. We do this willingly, with passion and adoration.
“If a writer falls in love with you, you can never die,” is a quote attributed to Mik Everett.
This is an extraordinary power.
Who or what will you use your artistic gift to immortalize today?
Let me know by replying. May the muse be with you!
