Lazy DAYS: JOYfully Dazed!


In a TIME

In a CULTURE

Where

We are

EXPECTED

To be

ON

24/7

Where

We are

SLAVES

To our

DO Lists

Where

We ARE

OVER-Scheduled

Pulled

In a million

DIRECTIONS

With

No SENSE

Of

INNER

DIRECTION

Spinning

Twisting

Spiraling

Bending

BREAKING

Down

WITHERED

By

The GRIND

Task Masters

LONGING

For

The Nourishment

Of

OUR SOUL

That KNOWS

What we

NEED

That GRACIOUSLY

Kicks

Our Asses

For

Our GREATER Good

REMINDING

Us

We are

HERE

To LIVE

For the JOY

For the LOVE

Of

LIVING

This Life

The TRUTH

Of

US

Ever-Singing

CALLING US

Inward

WAKING Us

In the NIGHT

As we

LAY there

STILL

No longer

Doing…doing…doing

BEING

Slumbering

FREE

Of our

BUSYNESS

It SEIZES

The moment

Attempting

To GET

Our ATTENTION

Jolt US

Awake

URGING

Us

NOT to live

Asleep at the Wheel

Swept AWAY

By

OBLIGATIONS

Dragging

OUR Bodies

AROUND

Out of Touch

With

OUR Self

For

This is

NOT

EXPERIENCING

The Aliveness

Of

This JOURNEY

Lazy DAYS

Where we are

JOYFULLY

Dazed

MIXING IT UP

Offer

A Sanctuary

REST

From the

CRAZY TRAIN

That threatens

To

DERAIL

YOU

Stripping

The FUN

In

BEING

You

The ART

Of

Doing

NOTHING

But

What you WANT

To do

Watching the clouds

Drift by

As you

Are

In no HURRY

With

NO PLACE

To RUSH off to

REFLECTING

Drinking IN

The BEAUTY

You often

Don’t SEE

No TIME

Like

The PRESENT

Enter

This DAY

In another gear

At a slower pace

Come into

YOUR Self

FEEL

The JOY

In

BEING You

Lazy DAYS

Aren’t

About DOING

Nothing

They ARE

An OPPORTUNITY

To BE

Wherever

YOU ARE

Moment

By

Moment

Consciously

Tuned IN

As you

DO

What you

DO

ENGAGED

In the DANCE

HEARING

The sweet song

WITHIN

You

As YOU

LIVE

This DAY

Drop

INTO

The MOMENTS

Breath

By

MAGIC

Breath

Make the coffee

Butter your toast

Pet the cat

Feed the dog

Kiss your loved ones

Wash the dishes

Mop the floor

Take a shower

Read a book

WHATEVER

Your HEART

Desires

WHEREVER

The Spirit

MOVES

You

GET LOST

In this DAY

And

FIND

Your Self

MIND

BODY

HEART

SOUL

Collect

The PARTS

Of

Your Self

Buried

UNDER

The Rubble

The HEAVY

FREE

Your Self

OPEN

Your Self

To the

LOVE

You ARE

The LOVE

Of

LIVING

This LIFE

So PRECIOUS

Knowing

There will

NEVER

Be another DAY

Just like

THIS ONE

And

There will

NEVER

Be another

Human being

Just like

YOU

Don’t DELAY

Don’t WAIT

For

Someday

DO

Or

UNDO

What ya gotta

DO

Find

YOUR WAY

To

Celebrate

This DAY!
