I am a lover of what is, not because I am a spiritual person, but because it hurts to argue with reality.
Byron Katie
I have been on a journey of LETTING GO. Surrendering to what is rather than trying to manipulate and maneuver to what would be more comfortable for me.
Truth is out.
My serenity has been contingent upon my comfort.
But no more.
I have officially dropped comfort as my aim and fallen nestea-plunge-style into the arms of The Comforter. It’s there, within me and all around me, that Still Small Voice of Love. Slowing down has helped me to hear It.
Be still and know I Am God.
Holy Spirit
The Voice didn’t start talking once I stopped moving, managing, making-it-happen… nah. That Voice has been whispering all along but I couldn’t hear It over the din of the chaos called my daily planner, my expectations, my narrow vision, my overloaded list of to-do’s.
It’s been so much to unwind! Lots to unlearn and relearn.
We can know that reality is good just as it is, because when we argue with it, we experience tension and frustration. We don’t feel natural or balanced. When we stop opposing reality, action becomes simple, fluid, kind, and fearless.
Byron Katie
But, oh, the adventure… this experience of slowing down is rockin’ my world. Everything is slower now… my days, my running speed, my thoughts. I mean, I even breathe more slowly now. I think before I speak because there’s space between my words… this is radical, baby. Absolutely deeply freakin’ radical.
Sometimes it’s quiet in my head and in my whole body for hours at a time. HOURS.
There is no try.
Flow.
Ease.
Which doesn’t mean that my life is dull or easy. Same goofball stuff is unpacking but I am not reacting. Sure, sometimes life changes but sometimes it’s just ME that has changed. The PEACE is not something “out there” – it’s ME. I’m the Peace. I’m the Breath. I’m the Calm in the Midst of the Storm. I’m the Quiet in the Chaos.
What if WHAT IS isn’t wrong?
What if WHAT IS doesn’t need fixing?
What if WHAT IS is “only” just super uncomfortable?
What if WHAT IS is exactly how it’s supposed to be… for our biggest evolution, our grandest awakening, our deepest expansion of Christ Consciousness?
What if WHAT IS is perfectly perfect in all its messiness… enabling us to embody Oneness, Unity Consciousness, our Divinity?
What if WHAT IS is helping us wake the heck up out of our slumber, our numbness, our illusion?!?!?!
What if WHAT IS is the way – and the onus is upon us to not fix, formulate, or fantasize… but to buckle up, press play, and enjoy the ride?!
Wouldn’t that be an adventure worth leaning into….
**********************************************************************************************
We’re on a journey of embodying Unity Consciousness... so the connection between mind and body is where it’s at! Here’s a song you can get up and dance to… move your body, breathe deeply, enjoy! Mind-body connection to awaken to Truth that you are God-spark. Waking up. Remembering. Embodying Itself.
Buckle up. Press play. It’s time to ride!
Edgy, joyful, pondering…
