Holding the Space

Remember when you were in school and your friends would save you a seat in the lunch room, the auditorium, or in the movies. It was a sign of true friendship. A sign that you wanted to be together, and share the experiences together.

In that same vein, I think we still do that for each other. Now, I call it -holding the space for one another. It is not a physical space, but it certainly is a state of mind-a consciousness. So, this is what came to me as I was quiet this morning:

I am holding the space for your peace today.
I am holding the space for your love and joy.
I am holding the space for your spiritual practice to be realized.
I am holding the space for your prosperity and abundance.
I am holding the space for your perfect health.

I am holding the space for your perfection.
I am holding the space for your oneness and divinity.
I am holding this space - because I love you.
Please save me a space in your consciousness as well.

  1. This is beautiful! I still want someone to hold the "physical" seat for me too.

  2. I think we all do. That part of us remains with us always. When I grew to be an adult, I was amazed to see this operating at National conferences and training events. Grown folks still saving seats for one another. Thanks so much for taking the time to make a comment.
