My moment is bigger than your moment

My moment has the action I'm doing now, the preparation that went into it, and its outcome.
I see that your moment is on the surface, unclear, as through a glass darkly or a surface of water that is shaken
How come your moment is chaotic, unprepared, reactionary?
Within my moment is the knowing of the intent that is manifesting, and the one that is blossoming and the one that is still a budHow come your moment is limited, no perspective, no clear focus?
Within my moment is the knowing that what is happening has come from my deepest selfI see that your moment is on the surface, unclear, as through a glass darkly or a surface of water that is shaken
Ah! As I dive even deeper and soar even higher, I see that your moment is my moment is your moment.
I am content.
I am content.
I see now that all reactions, counter-reactions, responses,counter-responses, preparation and unexpectedness, clarity and confusion, gurgles, groans, grins and grouches, you and me are in the moment.
All paradoxes combine in love.
I am one.
I am one.

Ah, thank you, Meenakshi, for addressing the very questions I have been asking myself regarding my moment. And I see now that every one of my questions has come from judgment of what I think it should mean to live in the moment.
When am I not in my moment?
When I am outside, judging it. And even then…
To live in the moment is to live in the moment. Who and what does the moment not include?
In love, in oneness,
Ruth
your questions are my questions and your answers mine. except of course in those magical moments when your questions are my answers and vice versa.
Life’s wonderful, said the :( who was a reflection of :) and maybe even ):
Meenakshi.
I’m so glad you are.
Read my newest blog.. its’s a bit scrambled.. but it’s my moment. :)
<3 -hugs a million-
Ashley, a completely amazing blog. Look fw to others reading your moment. Interesting that you’ve been visiting where I have, seeing paradoxes and so on!
Oneness is not a word.
Carpe diem… We are all One, sharing the same space, allowing the One to have multiple experiences through each of us… Thank you for the reminder my friend…
Said so well … our moments are shared and that is what makes this life so blessed.
It’s so delightful to find that ‘others’ get what you say. As a reader, I find myself approaching this blog from a different perspective than when I wrote it, and then it’s almost as if you have got it more than I did!
I see here also, that it is the light and shadow play that goes on before both feel like one. And tolerance and acceptance–as Hillora wrote today, Respect Others .
As I bow to you, dear Asteri and you, Daydreamer.
Thank you all for the expansiveness and inclusiveness!!!!!
For me, each moment is infinitely extending out to include everything that exists in this moment, and all potentials inherent in this moment but not yet existing, and all that ever existed before this moment. That’s a mighty big moment !!!
I feel so lucky to have so many moments, or maybe it’s just One, haha.
Blessings, OM Bastet
Now, if that was not the most magical moment of ‘us’… I’m here, reading Dear Meenakshi’s words and I work my way down the comments and now I’m ‘here’ at OM Bastet.. and *poof*! An email from the same OM Bastet! I love that :)
OM, you are not alone, my friend, if you don’t understand what I write. Me either sometimes! :D
Very thoughtful comments and a wonderful post here too! Thanks Meenakshi! And all.
Correction! WOW 2 beautiful OM in one night. :) My pardons, was an OM Shanti who just emailed me. Delightful all the way around.
hello precious reflection
Now I am singing “Moment by moment” by Yvonne Elliman.
what an excellent blog title. i had to hasten over to see the blog itself, which is even better.
chuckle! Nicole, I realized it’s a “catchy” /provocative title; but as it represented the truth of the shadow or pettiness that was eclipsing my thoughts till then, I decided I would allow it to stay; as a reminder to keep me in humility!
As I wrote, the expansion took place.
Samme, what a gentle song! found it here.
Enjoying the reflections , CLeo, Hummingbird!
Meenakshi I am smiling because you found the video made by my Youtube friend. I am a subscriber of him. He uploads songs that I have known ever since I was a child. That song is a blast from the past. Thank you for finding it. Yvonnne Elliman is the one who portrayed Mary Magdalene in Jesus Christ Superstar.
just like your wonderful blog testifies, “we are one”. indeed!
A moment is as good as the person(s) sharing that precious moment; even if it is just yourself. Make sense? It is like when I do my papers or scholarships, I always wonder, because it flows out of me, does any one else understand or feel the same way?
Yes; when we share and understand, the pleasure of the moment is heightened.
Yet, when someone disagrees or takes an opposing, tangential, separate, unconnected stance, then I can choose to examine that different-ness and expand; or contract into separateness.
Oneness ebbs and flows.
I’m really enjoying the thoughts that flowed when you wrote, Cindy!
Really, Samme, your friend?Wow! Small world.
Oh, this is very perfect, like a planet within a planet, all things within and without on the same spinning orb within a galaxy and beyond, beyond, and yet, right here.
Blessings~
