Daily Question, May 16

In which moments does my heart find meaning?

  • Ose
    Please allow me to add a post. Expressing such things so dear to my heart, although clearly felt, is quite new to me. As I only recently came to know my deep affinity for praying, please allow me to say a prayer. Aware of the suffering, I pray for HIS love to unfold and come to full eternal blossom in every heart and every living being. My heart finds meaning in promising to serve this unconditionally and with an open, vulnerable heart. Humbly I give myself completely, wanting HIS will to be ...

    Aware of the suffering, I pray for HIS love to unfold and come to full eternal blossom in every heart and every living being. My heart finds meaning in promising to serve this unconditionally and with an open, vulnerable heart. Humbly I give myself completely, wanting HIS will to be mine. With deep love, with deep gratefulness and with a deep bow, may blessings be with all of you.

    there is no moment like that ever happened

    My heart finds meaning when I am doing what I pray to be God’s will for me/my life- when I extend kindness and love to others and when what I do is done to glorify God. In His will is my peace.

    Any, if not every moment 🙂 reality

  • Antoinette

    My heart finds meaning love and truth.

  • Ose

    Any time when I am connected with others, through meeting the other in eyes or in heart, in nature, and in prayer.

  • Jill

    when listening, observing, sharing – nature, sounds or quiet times; yesterday, I saw a woodpecker pluck an apricot from the ground and fly west with the whole thing clearly visible in his beak – the same woodpecker, probably, that I chased off the wooden porch beams… once he was an irritation, and then he was a joy 🙂

    I don’t know about ‘meaning,’ but my heart rejoices when it sees beautiful clouds or other beauty.

    The Etheric Hearth of every Human Being is in no need of any “meaning” because it IS already all knowing as the Noetical Light. It is the responsibility of every present-day personality to clear away all misunderstood “meanings” which bloke out the beauty the etheric heart potentially IS, so that the brilliant Rosy-white Light of the Christ-Logos will eluminate this Planet / Humankind / and well beyond that ….even beyond the Seventh Heaven! Simple examples of when "moments" of Noe...

    Simple examples of when “moments” of Noetical potential occurs ( consciously or unconsciously ) are capabilities of clairvoyance and clairaudience.

    Almost any moment when I pause and pay attention.

  • TeriB

    These moments seem to appear at different times. It can be times that I feel eternally grateful and even in times of despair. It can be a smile from a stranger or a hug from a friend. Also in moments when I notice the beauty around me.

  • sparrow

    . . . in every moment my heart is present . . .

  • Rachel

    There are moments when I am not my best self and find myself in conflict with one of my children and something allows me to pause for just a moment. And in that moment I can see how I am not present, not listening, not seeing the person before me. When this happens and I can shift to presence, the connection that happens is so deep and profound and meaningful. I always find myself so absolutely grateful for the beautiful child in front of me!

    • Linda

      We have a family member that is far right conservative and a deep believer in conspiracy theories of all kinds. I often feel so frustrated with her that I want to write her off. But taking the time to look at her, as I did yesterday, with love and compassion opened my heart. I am going to try something new with her, which is to not engage in the futile attempt to change her mind, but just to keep letting her know we love her.

  • GratefulGal

    Whenever I write a poem or create a SoulCollage card, when I watch my older teenage son loving on the cat, when I connect with others, when I’m donating my time/effort/$, when I let someone go ahead of me in the grocery line or perform other random little acts of kindness, especially the anonymous ones.

  • Maeve

    being listened to deeply, and being able to listen and be moved, whether it is a podcast, a beautiful story.

    Having fun and “real” interactions with my students when I’m teaching.

    recently: having long-distance Zoom and Facetime dinners in the evening with my family.

  • Michele

    Music. I can listen to music and it goes straight to my soul. Nature has this effect too.

  • Katrina

    All kinds of moments, it’s the moments when my heart feels full because of the people with whom I have connected through some means or another, or if I am alone it is probably through some act of creativity on either my part, someone else’s or God’s.

  • devy

    When I wake up in the morning and do my daily meditation, when I see someone while going for my walk I smile and say hello, or thank them person for their hard work, either from the heart clinic, the delivery man who brings my groceries or medications. I notice their smile and reactions.

  • Kevin

    My heart finds meaning whenever I make a real connection with another human being. It might be as simple as a handshake (before Covid), or eye contact that reaches beyond mere vision, or mutual acknowledgement of a shared experience, however simple or significant it may have been. At that moment, the eyes light up, time stops, and a new “sense” is added to the other five.

  • EJP

    During times of pure gratitude and peace, sincere love and joy.
