ALIVE!Once again on the Greenlake trail. . . . This time we spotted a group of bluegrass musicians playing a luscious waltz on the green lawn by the blue water on one of the first lovely hot Seattle spring days in May.
Their ONE-two-three, lilting tune woke up something deep inside me. Joy!
Surely this is one of those opportunities to respond to the moment. I reached for my walking partner and we waltzed around and around on the walking path, ONE-two-three, ONE-two-three, swirling and twirling to the music and the birds and the water, and the sun and the day and the moment.
There is nothing so precious as the spirit responding in the moment. When you are making a presentation, and those unexpected moments arise – strong feelings, memories, insights, new ideas – rise to the occasion, ONE-two-three, let yourself be carried away!
For if you miss this moment, rushing through it in haste or fear, you will deprive your audience of a transformative experience.
But If you can allow yourself to linger and feel the opportunity in that moment your audience will be carried along with you, and their energetic response will magnify the delight, the revelation, the insight, the inspiration, and they’ll take that spark with them out into the world.
ONE-two-three . . . .
