EScape. Off to a vacation. Get out of work. Get out of a relationship. Get out of responsibilities. It is a psychological human behavior to engage in actions in an effort to terminate unpleasant stimuli. Each of us have experienced this desire to run away from, or move towards something more pleasant.
INscape. Introspection of a unique character or quality that belongs to an inner nature of a human experience. This is a deeper level of connection with the world around us and allows us to delve deeper into our own Self. To feel the magic and mystery of all living things within, is a sublime serenity that brings balance and calm to the mind, body, heart and spirit.
There are times when we are forced to escape situations, so that we can get ourselves centered in order to find our inscape. It is always inviting to spend some time to listen to the music of bird conversations, the gentle stirring of water, contemplating a piece of art or a musical piece or written works in a bound book.
The ability to inscape is to get grounded and find the space of the heart that is frequently ignored. The vastness of our inscape far out ways the distractions of the worldly experiences that we try to escape from each day. Whenever we are doing something that we do not love we choose to escape it. If it is our vocation then we seek a vacation from it. Yet when we create a vocation that we love, then there is no need to escape it, but in fact search for an ever deeper meaning and fulfillment by doing more of it. Inscape !!
It is wise to find experiences to be, have and do that give us the greatest love, for it is here where we can inscape to. It is also equally wise to make a list of all things, people, experiences, events that we usually cringe from and try to escape. There is more than a play of words, but in actuality a spectrum between our escapes and our inscape that we are invited to explore. It is the in between of these 2 states where we try to learn to survive or thrive.
What do you choose to and love to inscape to?
……………..
I love you
