WAKE UP! There is a great opportunity here for us to make a radical change...but will we follow our inner light and move towards truth, or will we remain asleep and allow our world to self destruct?
If your world seems dark and dreary, it is. If things appear ugly and hate filled, they are. If you find people annoying, bitter, jaded, etc. they are. Or are they? Or is it? Can you look at another human being and see the light in them, or do you only see their dark? Have you looked in the mirror lately? Do you like what you see? If not, why? Could that be why the world around you seems so awful and ugly? Or is it why you look around and smile at what you see? If you wake up in the morning grateful for another day, happy to see the sun, happy to go about your daily routine, is it because you are just lucky or blessed? Or have you made a conscious choice to be happy and see the joy and beauty in everything around you? We teeter totter back and forth from both of these perspectives many times throughout our day, most of us anyway. It’s difficult not to. It seems to take a concerted effort to decide to see the beauty and light all around you, rather than focusing on...
I had a thought the other night as I was sitting outside in my back yard, starting at the flames in our fire pit, that we are currently watching the old world/paradigm burn. When we all come out on the other side of this Covid-19 pandemic, and begin to rebuild our world, what systems are no longer serving us that we don't need to fight to keep them going? What kind of world do we want to create out of the ashes of the old? I believe if we are having to fight to try to keep something going, like our economy, then that is a clear sign that we need to find a different way of doing things. We have been watching the old ways of being crumble away for quite some time. The systems are broken and there has been a lot of hurt inflicted on our planet. What we are currently experiencing is awful and tragic in so many ways and yet there is so much beauty coming out of this. Humanity at its worst and best all at the same time. In my own personal life, what my family has experienced ...
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, many times over… the only thing I can say that I know for certain, is that I don’t know anything. Sooooooooo that being said, I have to rely on my inner guidance, inner compass, to steer me in the right direction. I’m sure I will make missteps and fall down a few times (or more) but I have to just keep putting one foot in front of the other and keep propelling myself forward. One of the most challenging lessons for me has been to stay in the present moment, to not get caught up in the worry about what might happen, or to keep revisiting the old stories of how I got here. A simple reminder to stay with my breath, in the moment, is never as simple as it seems, or is it? We all tend to overthink to the point of paralyzing inaction, and forget that we are the ones writing our stories and that if we don’t like the way things are going, that we can change direction at any time. Really? Is that so? How in the world can we accomplish that when i...
