Intending Memory and Remembering
Remembering is not just
a wistful act of sentimentality. Rather, it is a centering
act of sensual immersion wherein your whole body, every
sense, is tuned to your presence in the Now with your
sensing yourself as one with all who have preceded you.
Remembering
is a relational act, wherein you open yourself
to relate to the Past and the Future in a robust Now.
Remembering is the act of making yourself, through relationship
with your beloved, present as Forever-Family.
Remembering is another answer to, “Why are we
together?” This is a Big Question which, as Earthfolk, you pose
to your beloved, each day. Part of the Big Answer is—to remember
all of one’s own specific family and all of the
Forever-Family, thus making present all
who have ever lived, right here in the Now.
Remembering is the honoring of the
dreams of your ancestors which have found their presence
in you.
As you look upon your beloved it is the honoring
of the dream of your coupled living as it brings
other presences here onto the Living Earth, in flesh and spirit.
For many,
decorating their living space with genealogical pictures
assists them in this practice.
