Spontaneity

I think some of the absolute funniest, warmest moments that I remember were those moments that just came together, when someone said or did something funny or inventive and everyone added to the collective spontaneity. When you accept an invitation to a new place, or to a party or event, and something wonderful happens, it is very joyful.

When you meet someone new and there is a strong bond, and you spontaneously embrace them, this fantastic exchange of energy and warm feelings is created and carried with you. The great thing is, you really don’t now what will happen!! You just go with the flow in the present moment and let the next moment unfold.

If you are open to people, they will respond to you in that same open manner. The great guides of the past worked very spontaneously as well. Jesus did not really plan his day, and he walked wherever he was led. If someone asked him for help he would leave what he was doing and go with him or her. I think Buddha, who was credited with great compassion, also worked in that same manner. The Dalai Lama is known to be very spontaneous.

There is a fluidity about spontaneity that the great masters recognized. The moment is about now. What is occurring or about to occur happens now. You can decide the outcome by accepting the invitation, or turning it down, by embracing a stranger, or widening the gap, being fearless or fearful. Of course it is not appropriate to accept every invitation, or go off on every spontaneous adventure that comes along. But be open to that moment as it presents itself.

I am comfortable being by myself, moving around by myself and talking to people. There were several times while I was attending school at USC in Los Angeles that I was enjoying something by myself and started a conversation with a stranger, and I was invited for a dinner or something that I really didn’t expect but thought it would be enjoyable. So I spontaneously accepted.

One time, at night, and I was walking around an outdoor fair in Westwood which is the home of UCLA, the major rival of USC. There were many merchants displaying their wares: jewelry, colorful scarves, ornamental boxes, animal statues, flags etc. I loved wild earrings at that time and I was at one booth going through all the long dangling earrings. I was holding each one up to my ear to see if it was just the right one. I came across this one that wasn’t part of a matching pair. It was a battle-ax with a skull and a feather, in an antique silver color. I looked at this and thought to myself: now who would wear something like this earring?! I was holding it up and looking deeply at it still deciding that whoever would wore this ноутбуки аксессуары Acer would be into heavy metal or into some wild things. As I was standing there with this particular earring in my hand, an attractive guy with long blond shaggy hair and a beard, wearing a black leather vest, black leather pants, and black cowboy boots, moved next to me, and was also looking at the earrings. I started a conversation with him and showed him the earring.

“Hey, check this one out.
