My father used to say: “The sky is blue wherever you go.” Fortunately for me, I did listen to my father’s many sayings and observations about life. I realized, over time, how wonderfully wise he was; how my dad saw opportunity everywhere.

Every moment contains a precious drop of total consciousness. It is ours to choose how we wish to spend it, to react to it, to savor it. Many teachers speak of how life is to be cherished, that it is a rare opportunity to be here on Earth and to celebrate life.

If you cherish each moment, no matter the task, you are exercising your ability to be present, non-attached remain in a sacred space.

If you have the disposition to hold the sky blue wherever you go, you have increased the opportunity for harmlessness and compassion to root and flower in others. The choice is yours. Consider what one of my teachers has said about the task at hand:

“It does not matter what the task is that needs to be undertaken, how ‘trifling’ or how ‘important’. Whether sweeping the garden, or straightening out the shoes in the entranceway, the world operates by people doing the things that must be attended to at any given moment. No matter how boring you think a task is, things that must be done should be done. The reason a task is boring to you is because you are looking at things from the standpoint of a worldly attachment. From the standpoint of the Absolute, all action is the same.” **

As blood and breath must circulate and are precious to life, so also are you wise to observe how holding the “blue sky” within you is precious to your soul. Holding such a view allows the light of your soul presence to stream forth, unimpeded, as the light from a star emanates in all directions, touching all material matter in its path and illuminating it.
