“Days of Significance”

This morning, as I begin to rise and greet the day, I am becoming conscious and alert for the very first time in my life.  I have this beginning of an understanding that gently washes over me, it enlivens my inner being bringing me to a point of blissful alertness. Wow, this is better than Christmas!

Today will be my 1st Day of school & also my Graduation from it, it will be the day I am born (my true 1st Birthday) & my most recent Anniversary of that day. It’s the day where I will fly out on stage (for the first time ever) as that tenacious little bumblebee & the day of my 7^th Olympic Games Opening Ceremonies where I will “Thank” for the last time my 4000 volunteer cast-members. The day that I hear that I am voted “Most Talented” at my High School (a place I thought, thought me invisible) & the day I receive an Emmy Award.  It feels like the day I am going to meet Ron and Judy for the first time ever & the day I know that they are gone from my life forever.  Finally, it feels like the day I “Get it” that I will finally meet the Universe face to face… on even ground…as equals, friends and fellow Gypsies..

In short, (a little too late for that don’t you think), as I wake to consciousness this morning I feel I have reached the day of why I AM HERE, my understanding of the totality of… well, ME! I realize I am at my Being Point.

By derfinition; THE BEING POINT^TM is the always present moment of truth at which we are most fully alive and aware, at which love is chosen over fear, at which humans and organizations take control of their own destinies and give deliberate direction to their own evolution.

Oh My Frickin’ Heck!

When was anybody going to tell me it was today?  Ha, I wonder if I am wearing clean underwear!

Ah, Wow, so this is what it feels like to “Be in the Moment” to “Stay in the Now” to “Boldly go where no man (or, no Doug has allowed himself to go) has gone before!”

Shouldn’t there be trumpets blowing a fanfar “Tut Tut Tut Tahhhhhh”- “Fanfareing” or whatever they call it, as I go out of my bedroom to use “The Throne Room”?  Not even a dole of white doves at my loo window? (A dole is what a group or a flock of doves is called), I just learned that…I Googled it on my i-phone from the Throne!  And…Still no doves?

At least I will know what to call them when I see them for they are bound to show up any minute now, maybe they didn’t set their clocks back an hour last week (can birds even fly backwards?) Back to Goggle….

Though seriously trumpets and doves aside, as I wash my hands it does put me to wondering how many “Days of Significance” are we to have in our lives?

How many days of total and complete understanding that you are alive and completely in the right place at the right time? Aware that your Completeness tank is full and your “OH-dometer” and is pointing to BEING POINT!.

We have the obvious “Days of Significance”- the kind we plan and pay for to be this wonderous and OHmazing… for ex;

Births /Deaths /Engagements/ Weddings /Anniversaries /Graduations/ and a handfull of other “Fabricated Milestones” centered around an over marketed glut of over marketed holidays…

But I think it is this type of

SURPRISE  “Days of Significance” , the unobvious, the ones that catch you unawares.

They are the real reason we are Living, the real reasons we try, dream, hope, act on, persevere, fail, try again, want, need, desire, rest, endeavor, seek, allow and begin to comprehend, and then do it all over again.

All in the Quest for a day like I am having today.

That today will be a “DAY OF SIGNIFICANCE”.

I will tell you later about my day, but it is not important in the grand scale of this revelation…

It is the Journey, the Quest, the lesson gleaned that we live for these “Days Of Significance.” This is the Important Bit!

The days that are not flagged, not circled in RED on your Calendar, these quiet simply are the greatest and the most rare kind “a FIVE Leaf Clover Day” the ones that just gently appear in your sightline without any “Tut Tut Tut Tahhhhhhhinggg!”… As easy as waking up.

This, I Now understand, is the true reason for living; It is the Power-Up from our “Days of Significance” that creates LIFE!

Go Gently and Significantly into this day,

Doug!
