Sacred

"Sacred time is devoted to the heart, to the self, to others, to eternity. Sacred time is not measured in minutes, hours, or days," writes Gary Eberle

What do you consider sacred?

What times, or moments are off-limits? Completely yours?

Where is your sacred space?

These are the questions I ask myself as I scroll through the internet and social media.

Everyone is always ON.

You post and record yourself in bed, in the shower, in the tub, some of you on the toilet, before, after, and sometimes during sex.

You post and record every dinner, party, and your time with friends.

You post and record your pregnancy journey, your delivery, and every moment of your child’s life.

You post and record your partner and every moment of your relationship.

I cannot tell you how many times I’ve gone out and seen a couple that got all dressed up just to go out, order a meal and stare at their phones. Separately. The Entire time. Hardly saying two words To each other.

Like, Come On!!

What is that?!!

I often wonder and ask myself “Why is it so difficult for people to communicate and connect?”

When you are constantly consuming, or being consumed it leaves very little time for grounding, centering, and connection.

And yet, some of you post and record that too, and to that I ask: Is it really yours?

If even your time of personal wellness, and self-care practices are open for consumption is it really yours, and are you really connected to the practice, to the moment, and to yourself?

Are you really Okay?

Genuinely?

Truly?

What have you saved for those around you?

What time and space have you made for them?

What do you consider sacred?

What moments are off-limits?

Where is your sacred space?

We are not meant to be constantly consuming, being witnessed, or being consumed.

Life must have sacred moments and sacred spaces.

And those moments should be devoted to the heart, to the self, and to those around you.

Hold and make space for that.

Hold and make space for true connection.

For true conversation.

Hold and make space for yourself.

Hold and make space for what is sacred.
