There are always new things happening in life, new experiences and new simulations. When we see what the world has to offer every day we can, not just enjoy the moment, but use the gravity of that moment to propel us into the future. We need to live our lives like there is meaning and purpose, like each experience is a spice that adds flavor to, not just us but, everyone we interact with.
We have life experiences because of a combination of, but those experiences help us move into the future. Don't let the experience die when it is passed, share it. “We are cups, constantly and quietly being filled. The trick is, knowing how to tip ourselves over and let the beautiful stuff out.” these words by Ray Bradbury express this nicely. Our life is filled with beautiful experiences that should be shared. Even the bad experiences can be a story of note for those to come. If you think of life as a cup then your experience is the tea that is added. Sometimes the addition of the bitter or sour flavors are what give it body.
That beautiful mix that is us must be shared, have a tea party every day. Share your life with those that you love. Share it with those that interact with you at random on the street. Our lives are sometimes so full that we forget how to “let the beautiful stuff out”. Say hello and smile at every one that you can, let it out. Wave at the neighbors as you drive by, Help the older lady put her groceries in the car, let it out. Add your spice to everyone you meet by intention, circumstance or chance.
Too many people are content to wait for others to tip their cup over and let their beautiful stuff out, not realizing that they too have something unique, special and wonderful to offer the world. Everyone has, no exception.
