Blessed by Emptiness

camping in the living room

I am camping on a white couch in my empty white living room. It feels like being blessed by emptiness. In this white cave I can expand. Undiffused by the separate energies of objects, the empty white room reflects back only my own energy.

My life lately has been assessing what I need. I am grateful that my lifestyle affords me the grace of assessing what I need frequently, and encourages me to do it deeply, assessing down to the bone of what is essential. And oh, the pleasure of getting possessions down to that essentials bone! The lightness of leaving with little, with my selected little, lets me float free of what I never needed in the first place.

So I’m sitting on my white couch in a room blessed by emptiness after the day of the Yard Sale,and when I go to the kitchen, I have one place setting and one fry pan and one sauce pan. I will be here nearly four more weeks, and I am looking forward to the rest from so many objects.  I have everything I need.

    She’s got everything she needs, she’s an artist, she don’t look back. She’ll take the dark out of the nighttime and leave the daytime black.

    YOU’re not leaving yet, my dear friend…You’re just “rangeing” the room.
