Spirit Speaks – What Makes You Tremble?

I had a conversation with some friends about what makes a person tremble, and in particular, what made each of us in the group tremble.

The words that first came up were:

  • cold
  • fear
  • anger
  • grief
  • excitement
  • exhaustion
  • a hard run (which to me seems like exhaustion but which my friends agreed was different)
  • awe

We moved on to the physical things that make us tremble like:

  • earthquakes
  • thunderstorms
  • storms
  • hurricanes
  • typhoons

And then we moved to the intrinsic things that make us tremble.

  • the sound of certain music that raises you outside yourself
  • seeing an animal being born
  • seeing the majesty of the sky at certain times of the year
  • something deeply spiritual
  • sudden kindness from a stranger
  • the trust of a baby – human or animal

We had so much fun with this.  What I needed to remember was that each of these items seemed to be a force of Nature interacting with us.

What would you add to this list?

Blessings,

Judy
