Grace is such a profound and beautiful topic, and it’s amazing how it weaves into our experiences and reflections. Your presence here is surely an example of good timing in my life. Obrigada, Elena!
It happens so often that the great writers on Substack share the same topics at the same time. It's as if our higher powers say, "this is what y'all need this week so pay attention!".
The higher power works in mysterious ways, don’t you think? It often seems that there’s a hidden hand guiding events and moments in our lives, revealing a greater purpose behind what we might initially perceive as mere coincidences.
I found myself luxuriously sinking into this post. Often I catch myself skimming because I am a very quick reader naturally but this one was a slow savoring of important words. I appreciate the recognition of the intimacy of timing and that it can be a call of our spirit or a signal to wait. It requires us to soften and allow.
This is one of my favorite posts of yours Thaissa (I know! I always say that because each is better than the other and they are all excellent). You called our attention to the differences in time/timing in a gentle, pointed manner and provided us with the most amazing images! Thank you.
I truly appreciate your insight into the intimacy of timing—it’s such a delicate thing, isn’t it? I’m so happy to know this post resonated with you, especially since you’ve been so generous in supporting each one. Knowing that I could bring even the slightest bit of joy into your life fills me with happiness. Most of all, thank you for sharing that with me. So much love goes unspoken when we don’t express how we truly feel. Thank you, Donna!
Also, thank you for becoming my second paid subscriber and for sending such a beautiful message along with it! It’s so much less about the money and so much more about the love behind it. It might take a few days for the payment to reach my account, but once it does, I already know what I’ll do—subscribe to the BRIGHTEST newsletter around. Do you think the amazing lady who runs it would accept a yearly subscription for the same $30 you paid me? 😉
Yes! She would be delighted to do that. The first ever sale is coming up at the end of September for the participants of a retreat I am speaking at. I believe the rate will be $30CAD. I will let you know when it launches😘
Timing truly has a divine impact on our lives, and embracing patience and trust can reveal deeper layers of meaning. It’s wonderful to hear that you’re exploring this concept as well, Whitney. Thank you!
This is such a beautiful thought, one that I will carry with me. Timing vs. Time is a truly interesting distinction to consider. Your photos are just gorgeous and they transport me. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and your words Thaissa.
I’m thrilled that the idea of timing vs. time resonates with you, Arty! It’s always a joy to hear that the photos and reflections I share can transport and inspire. Your kind words mean a lot to me and motivate me to keep exploring and sharing. Thank you for connecting with my work so deeply!
I truly believe that timing plays a crucial role in shaping our experiences and understanding. I’m glad you enjoyed the piece. Your feedback means a lot, Michael!
My whole life I’ve been so so deeply concerned and fascinated and preoccupied with Time. Not once did I ever consider its more graceful counterpart, Timing. Until now. And I don’t know if I’ll be the same for it.
It’s remarkable how exploring Time can lead us to discover the subtler, more graceful concept of Timing. I’m deeply moved that my essay resonated with you this way and prompted such a shift in your perspective. Thank you for sharing that with me!
This is absolutely the truth. Alertness brings us the gems. I feel it slows the time down, too. I find the eternal in the movement. I love the new tone in your writing—it’s so clear. Beautiful.
I think it all comes down to being fully present in both the motion and stillness of life, and above all, learning from them. I’m glad that this new tone in my writing connected with you, as it’s been a journey to embrace simplicity and presence in my expression. Thank you!
Learning to surrender to timing can be a profound journey from resisting to embracing the natural flow of life. I’m glad you found this meditation on patience meaningful, Elizabeth.
its easy to surrender to your expanding themes and this one takes the pressure off seeing time as a rapidly depleted resource encouraging us to seize the moments which elongate our mortal experience thanks Lara
It’s wonderful to hear that my perspective helps shift the view of time from a dwindling resource to something that enriches and extends our experiences. Your insight adds a beautiful layer to this conversation, AK, and I appreciate you sharing your thoughts with me!
Timing, on the other hand, feels more intimate and precise. — Yes! I love this. Beautiful article and very thoughtful distinction between time and timing.
It’s such a subtle yet meaningful distinction, and I’m thrilled that this post connected with you. Your kind words truly mean a lot, Priscilla—welcome! ❤️🔥
beautiful. i'm going on about grace in this week's post too. feeling this.

learning to surrender to timing is my biggest lesson. i've always fought with patience, always had to count down minutes and days.
this a great meditation on learning the differnce between the two.
Learning to surrender to timing can be a profound journey from resisting to embracing the natural flow of life. I’m glad you found this meditation on patience meaningful, Elizabeth.
Patience is so hard…but I keep trying!
Patience is a reminder that, while we may not control the timing of life’s events, we can choose how we respond and grow through the journey.
"discipline" and "surrender" 🤗
