appendices i-vii fifth heart

In social settings a spontaneous shout of glee reveals a blatent playfulness. Or we may muse, “I did not know I could do this so easily or offer this so generously.” The heart of play acknowledges moving through the doorway into the play realm and sometimes it reveals the expansion of the play experience itself. Scenes in movies sometimes sweep us up passively into this sense of play. With a rush of emotion, we delight in some life truth staged before us. We may have to stage a reenactment to get the full effect for our self rather than the effect on us as an observer. It's a challenge worth exploring.





Heart of Play Experience #3 Putting into Words

Once we have a sense of living playfully, other words can fill these pages. Add words as commentary. Don’t push the prose; let words stand telegraphically or poetically. Remember that like love we have a concept that eludes certain aspects of verbal description. Trust that we know when we balance on the giving and taking fulcrum. Let the verbal approximations hum of the experience.
