Life Living

hawk flying across the sky

The “eternal” is at work in the pastures of Florida. A relentless rhythm of Life living itself in every square inch of land, air and tree. The lowing cattle live an eternal existence that has taken place here for centuries. The names on the few street signs reflect the history of the area…SW Florida a bit inland, citrus and cattle country.

The paradox is that there is change within the sameness. The landscape evolves but the rules are the same. Everything speaks of Life’s expression, changing within eternal rhythms.. My experience is from the inside, a stillness and appreciation of light and its profound effect on the voices of the many plant forms.

Each plant takes light and expresses it in its particular way. It’s what fascinates me about Essential Oils… Each oil is the “voice” of a species expressed uniquely and eloquently. Each voice offers a special experience if we can keep a gentle hand on the tuner and listen from the core of our being.

We humans, like the plants, have unique voices to express… No one can tell us what those voices will materialize, just that it must sing with the Light of Truth like the plants sing with the Sun’s grace.

Touching that place deep within creates destiny. Simple sensory experiences aren’t enough. We are intended to create, uniquely and individually, but coming from the Great One as Love.

In the stillness of the pastures, circling upward with the hawks, grounded eternally in the cattle and exploding in the abundance of plant life, is the curriculum of creativity, a metaphor of joyful expression.

May we make this kind of living our singular mission. May we feel our presence, fully and mindfully, in this moment unfolding eternally.

With much love, Rosanne

The Peace of Acceptance

By Rosanne Bostonian | November 2, 2022

Why are all forms temporary? When we follow the transition of form to energy, we are on the Path to Enlightenment and Abundance. There is a part of us that finds the loss of familiarity and form off-putting and disconcerting. I’m sure you’ve experienced that feeling…the sense that we want our loved ones with us…

The Finiteness of Form and Time

By Rosanne Bostonian | October 4, 2022

I remember my dear uncle saying, “Now that I’m old I can look back on life while I’m living it.” I didn’t get that at the time, but now I do. What I find different about getting older is that I can be the observer and the actor at the same time. When we’re young,…

Impatience

By Rosanne Bostonian | September 7, 2022

If there is a downside to technology, it is justifying impatience.  “I want it and I want it NOW!”  The idea that some things take time feels like a violation to many of us. It all started with the TV dinner and microwaves! (No official validation of that, just my opinion.) Competition seems to bring…

Human “Being”

By Rosanne Bostonian | August 31, 2022

The place of “being” (without doing something) is a guilty spot. In fact, if we aren’t doing something, we’re “wasting time,” and if we aren’t doing something, we’re thinking about what we just did or what we’re going to do next. The result of this is a mad dash through time and space until something…

Permanence

By Rosanne Bostonian | April 3, 2021

Nothing in the world we experience with our five senses is permanent, yet we long for permanence. This is both what makes us chronically insecure and simultaneously reach for what IS permanent. The delusion that everything and everyone isn’t changing is punctuated by unwelcomed surprises. We lose a job, a relationship, a loved one. The…
