This is day 3 of Sacred time, today’s dispatch is titled Take Time. You can checkout the entire Gameplan here.

If you’ve not done Day 1, please start there.

A note on the assignments: We’ll be doing more drawing today, I encourage you to use the template, we’re going for a cartoony big head and small body, then go crazy and loose with the hands, this will let you capture more ALIVENESS, which is the aim for the moment.

Okay Let’s go, welcome to day 3:

Take Time

Mindfulness gives you time.

Time gives you choices.

Choices skillfully made, lead to freedom

— Bhante Henepola Gunaratna

When someone says “I have all the time in the world”, they are obviously using hyperbole — but what they mean is that they are willing to spend this particular instance of their finite most precious resource to show up fully present.

There are times in our lives when we actually show up like we have all the time in the world — when we suspend any care for anything other than this present moment.
