"Which part/s of my body do i like most? Which don't i like?"

Last May 25th at the Tuesday Inner Work Circle the sharing centered around the questions:
"Which part/s of my body do I like the most? Which don't I like? Why?

Most of the participants said that it was a difficult question and that it is something that we don't ask ourselves often. In fact, we usually take for granted our bodies that we never appreciate each part until they start to show signs of fading...

The fingers, hands, and feet are some of the favorites because of their usefulness. Others cannot identify a particular body part but have determined what they appreciate about their physiology: one's immune system, or one's fast metabolism that accounts for an overall fit and almost youthful physique...

"Most often, when we look at old photos of ourselves when we were younger, we never thought we could look that great!," one participant reflected.

But the body part that seemed to be most loved by everyone would be none other than-- the eyes. The so-called window between the soul and the outer world is also often taken for granted in our everyday life. We wake up each morning and enter the world by opening them and we never usually say "Thank you, God, for these pair of eyes!" That is, until, our perfect 20/20 vision lenses start to retire as time passes by...

This goes for all parts of the body-- and for anything or anyone, for that matter-- that/whom we often fail to appreciate until we begin to lose them.

It is good to always be reminded of these blessings, big or small, that we have (which others might even not have-- fortunately for us). May we be constantly grateful for these earthly vessels of the divine sparks!

For the week ahead we try to reflect further on the sense of sight with this guide question:

What are objects, colors, shapes, images i have seen with my eyes these days that caught my attention?" What thoughts/feelings were provoked in me when i saw them?

See you then!
