Being Alive in the Fire

What does it mean to be alive in the fire?

It means you smile at nothing. You hula hoop and spin fire, finding the meditation that's meant for you today. You sing and share love.

You give what you can, freely, from the heart.

You practice losing the ego, and letting go.

When you're alive in the fire, you're unafraid to sweat if it it means getting the good workout; you're wild and free to express yourself. You accept what is.

You breathe: full, slow inhale; full, sweet exhale.

Fall foliage, healthy food, that rush when you're about to perform a poem or create a piece of art: alive in the fire. 

To all you beautiful yogis who are alive in the fire, continue on the path. You're inspiring and I'm grateful for you. Namaste.
