This episode sprung from the poem Observer Status (see below). It’s an invitation to move from an unhealthy observer role to a more healthy discernment of where external “authorities” make sense for us and where it is simply a program being run on a loop. As always, sacred self care means we are willing to take responsibility for ourselves.  As things in our external world become more visible, our role as passive observer becomes less palatable. We are being asked to consider ever more deeply, what are you choosing now? How can you turn up the volume on who and what you are here to bring to the world?  Noticing, observing if and how you might be unknowingly be letting your divine expression remain untold. It’s time to get up off of your seat and express through your art of living.  ~Observer Status ~ Consider beloved  All the ways we have been relegated to the role of observer  Taught to be content, watching the dance of life unfold  Narration by self appointed experts, few allowed onstage, a puppetry of anointed ones  Consider beloved—who did this choosing—designating us as audience? While the powerful stories moving through our divine expressions remain untold Time to leave our seats Time to remember how and what we are here to sing, to dance,  to paint in this, our unique, infinite, ongoing art of living  Time to embody the cosmic song of life being sung through us  ~ (art & poetry Christine Pensa) Link for more on all episodes through my show page; https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/ Available everywhere you get your podcasts.
