Rightness.
November 17th, 2008 by julia
If it fits, if it feels good, if it seems appropriate and meaningful, then it doesn’t matter how absurd it is in the light of the established explanation of how things work. Establishments are no longer as stable as they used to be. They are having to make way for another kind of knowing which is concerned only with harmony, with keeping in touch with Earth’s tune.
Lyall Watson, Gifts of Unknown Things

Each of us possesses deep intuition regarding how to live, how to be in this world; a gut feeling of rightness that is often beyond articulation. But this intuitive voice is so easily smothered. For instance, we are told that it’s right to spend eight hours a day in an office and an hour commuting; after all, most everyone else does. We learn that it’s wrong to spend that time in the company of friends, playing in the woods and building things with our hands.
But really, what feels right to you? Spending your life indoors, mind and body sedate? Or living in a way that supports every inch of your body feeling alive, radiating passion for the world around you?
Thought and feeling don’t always align; I say listen hard to your intuition.
