The word sacred brings many images to my senses. I think of times when ordinary events become extraordinary because I saw them with new eyes. One such time was when I was with a group of friends. One friend was struggling with events unfolding in her life and another friend was almost giddy with how well things were going in her life. What made that moment sacred was each of us present could be fully present to what was unfolding. The tears of frustration and the energy of laughter could co-exist because each of us chose to be present to the other.
Other possible sacred events are how a parent loves a child or how friends see something about each other in a new way that causes them to take a moment to appreciate that new insight. That moment when things come together to make a new situation and you realize your effort helped cause that to happen....that is sacred!
