Curious Participant

I am a Curious Participant.

I am curious about pretty much everything.  It is a hunger that can ebb and flow, but never vanish.  My interest extends well beyond obtaining merely knowledge, though.  I wish to know AND understand.  From this synergistic relationship, mixed with equal parts of time and space, comes wisdom and a deep and intense appreciation for all things.

I am an active participant in this universe and never a passive observer.  There is no way to avoid this.  So rather than being confused by, and maybe even fearful of what I "observe", I immerse myself into this universe and help it become.  I share in the act of creation.  Confusion turns into Awe and Astonishment.  Fear turns into Joy.

Curious Participation is the act of noticing Beauty.  Beauty is beheld.  Beauty is felt.  Beauty is Bliss.  Being in Beauty is Ecstasy.  We are all in Ecstasy all of the time and experiencing Beauty helps us remember that.
