Harold Crick is living a monotonous, highly organized, routine life. He counts how many times he brushes his teeth, and how many steps to the bus stop. He is intricately aware of how many minutes and seconds everything takes. In a sense, Harold is living an ordered, scripted life - there is nothing spontaneous or joyful, and he does not have any intimate relationships that involve communicating from the heart.
When Harold begins to hear a woman\u2019s voice narrating his life and describing his every move he begins to question who is in control of his life! Is he? Is the narrater? And who is the narrater? What is the genre of his life\u2019s story? How will it end? Harold begins to pay attention, to watch and learn how he is living his life - which then brings his attention to the most important question of all. A question of purpose. Immediately as his heart begins to open to the possibility of living his life differently, the fear of death enters his mind as he hears a voice speaking of \u2018his imminent death\u2019.
The script is written. The ego projected the world and all of the stories in it. Every human story ends in death, and so the question becomes how am I going to live this life? Do I dare to live it fully and embrace the opportunity to love now? Let\u2019s allow our mind to be lifted up above the script of the character into an identity that cannot die!
When the purpose of awakening is given to our life we are tuning into the script through prayer and inner listening, and it becomes a vibrant, living experience. Through forgiveness; awakening to a new purpose, the script can seem to be rewritten. In truth it is being reinterpreted. The focus shifts from a tragedy, where the focus is on avoiding death and preserving the life of the individual, to loving attentiveness being given to every moment.
Every moment and every thing in this moment is what can save our life when it is seen for what it is. A moment to spend with God (an Open Heart!)
