Sensations Sweep

Some of you are writers who have studied and created within worlds of
words for a long time, and others of us are just beginning, looking at
suffering through a writing project like tolerating a bad cold!
Whatever levels of writing we experience, writing can help communities
see their collective senses in different ways, and clarify deepest thoughts
and experiences as they are wanted to be remembered.
Creatively writing about nudges we have become accustomed to sensing
can be fascinating, and, with tendencies to be swept into ecstasy, we
can assume those nudges are innate passions that actually direct our choices
and actions. Well, that is, whenever we allow them to direct us.
When I was young, I didn’t even know the word passion, but curiosity
and respect for unseen energy around me occurred naturally when I practiced
piano and performed recitals as a kid. That energy was as plain as day:
I could not not feel it, and I remembered energetic effects as I went
back to practice the same pieces, day after day. I was born with a penchant
for sensing and physically responding to energy that was immediately handy
- energies became my passion: I was and still am swept into profound fascination
by them.
We can know our passions by the trails they have left in our lives. You
may quote me.
As in the communities of writers, performers who train long periods of time
in the performing arts notice and depend on conspicuous forms of dynamic sweeps
of energy. That creative energy cannot be forgotten.
Creative sensations ooze this way and that through the works of writers’
and live performers’ pieces. Universal energy makes known the unseeable
grandeur not only for Earthlings’ entertainment and joy, but for
the sheer sweeping ecstasy of observing itself through the collective
eyes and minds of Earthlings!
Our constant curiosity
is key
to watching what’s being created.
