The rapture that defines moments of pure delight

“Meditators dream of attaining the single-pointed focus that young children experience naturally when they play.
Spiritual aspirants long for the rapture that defines moments of pure delight.”

Luring the Muse
Copyright 2015 by R.A. Robbins
“Often the Muse will not respond to direct and logical requests.
She must be lured in with the playful and gentle.”

Seriousness is too boring
“Seriousness is too boring to the playful human condition.
A heart of stone that has a long face can never express love.”

This is the real secret of life
Copyright 2008 by R.A. Robbins available in the Espirational Gallery.
“This is the real secret of life—
to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now.
And instead of calling it work, realize it is play.”
~ Alan W. Watts
Play is Not Over There
“Play isn’t something separate from the daily grind of life. It is not something to finally get to when work ends. Rather, play, like music, is a force that we feel in our bones and that whispers in our heart. As kids demonstrate, play is not over there, but forever here and now.”
~ Vince Gowmon
Fun can heal the world

When I decided to do a little tracking on this quote it led me to the world of Bernie De Koven and Deep Fun and A Playful Path. Bernie has passed, but I’m so glad he brought his sense of fun and play to this world. So go visit the websites and have fun!

A happy talent
Let’s Play!
When is the last time you actually played? I’m talking with wild abandon here. Like a child. Not worrying about the cares of the world, just having fun.
This month let’s play. Let’s pump our legs on a swing to see how high we can go. Let’s color outside the lines. Let’s just have fun.
If you have trouble letting go of adults rules, shoulds, shouldn’ts and have to’s our daily posts will help you with that. There might be games, songs, arts and crafts, even a few surprises.
So join us every day this month and let’s play!
—The Robbins
