ACTION ~
karma - beth hemmila (hint jewelry)
in a recent post, beth posed the question - does karma wait for you? while understanding that karma has to do with actions that are involved in the cycle of cause and effect, she presented the thought so very succinctly and with a sense of immediacy... beth has an incredible gift for doing this - and i admire it tremendously... in fact, i have been thinking on this for almost a week now...
perhaps because it has been on my mind i have been open to seeing other writing that builds upon the concept...
in an article called 'neverisms' printed in the huffington post, a story is told of ernest hemingway giving advice to marlene dietrich:
'never confuse movement with action.'
is there intention behind what you are doing? and of what kind?
last night i was reading an interview stephen hawking gave to the guardian... when asked 'so here we are. what should we do?' he replied:
'we should seek the greatest value of our action.'
living lives of intention through good, bad, and ugly... living our karma... being mindful of how our words and actions affect others... making the most of every opportunity...
this is your life...
