A few words regarding embodied awareness

So what is to be done?
I'm suggesting a return to a primordial language.
One that exists as the deepest knowledge and expression that humanity knows.
It predates spoken language, it has its roots in the emergence of awe.
It is present in everyone, as an elemental music and reflection of molecular and stellar movement.
It is a genetic design built into leaf patterns and the bobbing of sea horses.
It is eminently present to children, we have educated it out of them.
but it is the story of our place in the universe and we must begin to tell that story again.
What we are losing is our ability to speak to the whole.
The songs of celebration, the poetry of praise.
Author unknown

To me the most important statement is - "What we are losing is our ability to speak to the whole."  It seems like I spend so much time segmenting my life into manageable chunks and tiny experiences, that I forget the whole picture.

Practice, practice, practice.
