What is your relationship to waiting?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for November 06, 2008:

It's interesting... Most of my daily life now is just flowing from one activity to the next, from one moment to the next,  so in that sense there's no waiting whatsoever.

But then I've created a funny patten, when a time frame is being set somehow:
I tend to arrive too early and my creations tend to arrive too late.

In fact, I created this pattern from the very beginning:
I'm told that when the time for my birth came, nothing happened. After two weeks of waiting the doctors decided to give my mother some kind of medication that started the birth.
The interesting thing is that when I go back in my memory to that very beginning, I definitely feel that I was born too early!

You could spin all kinds of stories and interpretations based of that... and in my earlier days, that's exactly what I did.
Now, however, I realize that, like everything else, my arrival was perfect - and that does include perfect timing. It was part of my perfect story to have it created this way.
As it is part of my perfect story sometimes to create illusions of "too early" and "too late". There is no such thing, really.

Isn't it amazing?

Who is the youngest person you know?

I have a part time job in a kindergarten. I see a bunch of 3-6 year old children almost every day, and many times also their younger sisters and brothers.

I have nothing to tell them about themselves. Absolute nothing.They're not here to be told. They're here to play, to experience what is and what is not. As am I.
Am I not?

The Love Tag: Five questions and answers

Posted on Nov 30th, 2008 by halinagold : Playful Being halinagold
In response to Mila's invitation...

1) Who is the last person to whom you said "I love you"?

The feeling's there many times a day and flows towards people, places and things! :-) However, the last time I spoke these words out loud was in fact to myself.
And no, it's not because I spend my time standing in front of the mirror and convincing myself that I do love myself after all. :lol:
It happened spontaneously.

2) Who did you look up to as a child?

My brother who was 2 years older than me. It was a perfect way to convince myself that I was not only younger but also someone who could be "looked down to" :lol:

3) Which public or historical figure (s) do you admire?

I can't think of anyone right now. Perhaps because there is no public/historical figure that I admire more than any of the amazing people that I meet every day everywhere.

4) What qualities in others inspire you?

In a sense, all of them. Every human quality/expression (no matter how I might have judged it previously) becomes a source of inspiration, amazement, appreciation of our complexity, creativity, beauty.

5) What makes you feel loved & appreciated?

In the illusion: someone reaching out to me
But really, the feeling comes from within - and then gets beautifully reflected by people reaching out, smiling, chatting, hugging, writing...

I'm tagging the last 5 people (other than dear Mila) that have reached out  by commenting on this blog :-)
