OUT THE DOOR

Thoughts come and go
What is now is the treasure
Breathe, relax
This moment is sacred

I’ve started so many posts these past months and none of them made it to my website. This year went by at the speed of light. Insights came and then it was on to the next challenge. My past has been slowly moving out the door as I let go of things, old stories, cellular memories.

When I see how deeply some of my beliefs were held, I’ve gained compassion for those who are controlling, hurting others, unaware of who they truly are, of who we truly are. Compassion for those reacting to what scares them, to thoughts and feelings they can’t yet face. I exhale.

Today I’m letting go of “trying” and “Self-doubt”…both block me from staying in the moment, from opening to what’s to come. Again, not making something happen but rather opening to receive. Listening for the next step and taking it. It’s going to be an interesting year.

    Your beautiful image inspires me to say I have a blue beta in my fish bowl on my kitchen table. His name is BlueberryIV. He is my teacher and my constant companion at mealtime. Be still. Be present. Breath in and breath out. Trust and relax into what is. Repose into the immediate as if it is infinity, which it is. Barbara, once again, your deep, calming words of essence are like gold to me. I thank God for you and your courage to share your most inner world with us. Love and Power to you.

  4. Yum! I love this. Thank you.

    Your post is the best “Good morning” message I’ve had in quite a while, even better than Stubby. His love, patience and presence encourage me to relax, to move through each moment with love and freedom from the weight of the past. He really does.

  6. “What is now is the treasure.” Yes.
