Make
an earthquake of your presence. It's a phrase the devil shared with
Jōb. Not the mythological devil, nor the literary Jōb. I was in a rock
musical in Toronto playing the role of Jōb in Jōb and the Snake.
My buddy Kevin played the Snake. He told me the it was a Quaker
aphorism. But I couldn’t find it anywhere. It is a phrase not of my
own making, but it is an important philosophy I hold closely and quote
as 'author and origin unknown' until such time as I am no longer ignorant
of them.
But ponder it for a moment… make an earthquake of your presence
It
makes me think of walking into a room and causing a shockwave of good
energy; physically imperceptible, but deeply healing and inspirational
on the cellular level. I picture choosing brighter colors, taking
deeper breaths, climbing higher hills, taking bigger leaps of faith.
make an earthquake of your presence
Shaking hands more warmly, loving more deeply, singing more loudly, laughing... more.
make an earthquake of your presence
Having joy by causing it. Knowing abundance by sharing it. Knowing the Way by living it.
make an earthquake of your presence
