Let things come to you.

These past few weeks and months have been a series of ups and downs ( I am not only talking about me)!  Clearly the earth is shifting in ways that people are living in fear of its changes and what could come next.  My emotions seem to be a direct reflection of what people everywhere are suffering.   In short, I seem to be drawn in an obsessive state that harbors fears of the changes in my life.

The other day my yogi tea told me, "let things come to you."  Shortly after reading this, I became over-whelmed with fear that aroused beginning stages of  impatience. As mention before in my "indefinitely late" blog, that I believe the universe will provide me with whatever I need and within reason. Only my fear lies in the time it takes for the universe to bring these "things" forth, and this is where impatience becomes psycho-bitch!

I came across Daily.om blog Honoring Life Change- The wisdom in fear is morning.  The starting line states, "Anything worth doing will always have some fear attached to it."  Ok.  This is good... everybody goes through it, I mean why would there be a reassuring blog to the public!! In short this blog told me:  To realize that this is where we question if our new goals are really what we desire. To begin to comfortably move on we need to start letting go of the past, just like a snake that sheds its old skin. To practice non-attachment towards our life as it once was. In truth, once-upon-a-time we always knew that we would be right here, making life decisions that were too scary and often having difficulty with connecting to what is the right choice for us. The article ends by giving advice that I already knew but need to be reminded of: To sit with my fears and impatience and internally discuss this dialogue, so that I can allow new doors to open and be reassured why old ones need to be closed.

Discuss.  Share.   Remember your calm being that practices patience.    Be Love to all, even yourself.

What gives you life?

There is a force within which gives you life--seek that.
In your body lies a priceless gem--seek that.
O wandering soul, if you want to find the greatest treasure,
don't look outside, Look inside and seek that. -Rumi
