The Art and Soul of Play


I think a lot of us feel like we’re sort of trapped within the confines of reality, as if all things are either destined to be or everything is random. But these perspectives don’t leave any room for the human factor. Why would we be here – alive, breathing, thinking, doing – if we didn’t have some control over our lives?! Could we instead be co-creating our experiences ~ along with other people, the universe, the cosmos, the powers that be? I read recently that the more we take responsibility for everything in our lives, the more power we generate (empowerment). This certainly implies a significant level of control. So the questions remain: What do you want to create and are you willing to start playing with the building blocks of existence to bring it to fruition?
