Good Morning Agents!
As introduced yesterday, we are part of a conspiracy with nature, literally breathing together with every living thing on earth. David Spangler, free-lance mystic and a member of the International Kindness Team braintrust, has designed an exercise for us to better understand this conspiracy.
Yesterday, we divided a sheet of paper into four quadrants, having placed ourselves in a circle in the center. We populated the "Body" quadrant, and completed an act of compassion inspired by this exercise. It's time to move on to the next quadrant.
Day Two : Mind
In this quadrant, you are going to draw circles, too, but here each circle represents an idea or an image you have about nature. When someone mentions "nature" to you, what springs to mind? What memories do you have of places or events in nature you've experienced? What attitudes do you have about nature, particularly as you relate to it or it relates to you? How does your mind conspire with the natural world? These circles represent specific mental experiences you have with nature.
As you did yesterday, choose one of these circles and conceptualize a way for you to complete a compassionate act in acknowledgement of it. As an example, if one of your circles is specific to a place in nature that is important to you, perhaps you can visit that place, or one like it, and beautify it in some way.
Throughout this week, we are encouraging you to share your experiences on Twitter with the hashtag #LoveThisPlace2015. And, please, in celebration of our conspiracy of positively expressing life on earth, use this link to share a photo of a place you love and why you love it.
Good luck, agents.
