Rose

Creative energy flows when you welcome change. The state is joyful, happy, relaxed, and peaceful. From that place, you can create and channel that energy to manifest something new that didn’t exist before.

You can bear and embrace that emptiness when all that you have is an empty page. You look at the page and ask, “What will arise?” Here, we’re not looking for answers but for the process of the creativity itself and check, "Does that resonate?"

If something comes to mind and you want to express it, allow yourself to do so—but only if you feel the need. You allow yourself to be moved. In a way, it's a very comfortable way to be, because you can move, breathe, and speak freely, or simply allow silence to be. This requires an acceptance of absence and presence and the change. Everything is continuously changing. We simply allow this flow. People move around, there are cars, noises, and birds—it’s just life unfolding. We are living. We are alive.

We can simply sit together; being-with is a practice. If something comes up, you can say that. You share yourself with others in that moment, which is touching because you open up. It’s a gift that you offer, like saying, “Hey, look—there is a really beautiful rose over there.” We experience shared Presence.
