Yesterday, I asked if the metaphysical and Buddhist philosophies could be reconciled, if we can do what we love, sure that the "money will follow," or if we should love what we're doing, knowing that each moment is an opportunity for growth and each act has the potential to cultivate equanimity in us. Today, I'm thinking that maybe the exercise of "loving" whatever it is we find ourselves doing is what will ultimately allow the universe to conspire on our behalf. If we can accept where we are, without struggle, perhaps that will open the floodgates of opportunity and allow us to see the synchronicity that is always present. With acceptance, we can imagine something else (without the struggle of desire) and still remain content with the moment, whether we are cleaning the bathtub and doing the dishes or whether we are attending a yoga class and spending time with family. Loving each moment for what it can offer us seems to be the surest way of finding peace and maybe even prosperity too.
