The sea was sparkly blue green turquoise, the sun was shining brightly yellow gold high in the sky; 

And I was in the UK!

Running along Hastings seafront towards the start of the Parkrun into a stiff sea breeze…

Seagulls squawked and played in the summer wind.

Up up up – then swooped on a downswing, their cries loud in joyous chorus of fun…

Swimmers swam and runners ran…

Running running running, such a simple action – a rhythm and a peace in taking one step and another and another…

From the start to the finish…

Of the run – of our life – here for awhile…

All of us taking one step after another; all of us connected in divine oneness…

And as Rumi says :

‘You are not a drop in the ocean, you are the ocean in a drop’

When we know this, experience this, live this – then every step has more meaning, because we know that every step we take impacts all.

Running teaches us this, to stay in each step, to tread into it with joy, confidence, trust, and love – and to allow the next to take care of itself, each one leaving no print…

Just the vibration remains…

Joy, confidence, trust, love emanating out to all that tread the path behind us, in the wake of our energy.

If we are aware in every moment of our vibration, then we will change not only our own moment, our own run, our own step, our whole life…

But the lives of others who we meet along the running path

Of Life…
