All that is valuable in human society depends
upon the opportunity for development
accorded the individual.
~Albert Einstein
Have you every wondered what you are doing right when everything seems to going wrong? Sigh. Well, smiling through lessons isn’t always fun or easy to do. And the lessons do keep me on my toes. It is interesting how the doors close and open at the same time.
This last week a pattern I really was hoping was dissolved came back in my face and yep, I was thrown a bit by it. It was a little bit of integrity by someone else was out of sic. Mine. Yet, all is in perfect timing and place. So I stop myself and think for a moment how or what I thought to create this again. Hmm. It is that detachment of the possibility that gets to me. Like I am off in some way, and I am still being center as best I can. My heart is pulsating from the events of the last few weeks.
That shift of energy and I know that Saturn and Pluto are a part of this game or the pattern. What pattern? Someone offers to help, may even start to help and then throws it back on me to finish or they just doesn’t follow through. Basically changes their mind. How many times have I changed my mind about doing my life purpose or attempts to avoid it altogether. Friends are great at giving me advice and I do listen. I do appreciate the information. Really I do, knowing their hearts, the situation and the reality of life…that game.
Breathing here… A new opportunity is opening up here yet I am feeling that excitement or anxiety. Nope that isn’t it… I am pissed at this person for her doing this to me, after I followed through with her and now this. Yes, I know. I need to talk to her about this. She will not like it and she is very sensitive about this. Oh well.
In truth, the lesson for me is that I am complete and whole with no separation. It is that mirror of me not following through with myself. It is an attitude adjustment. I can only look within and see that magic that dwells deeply in me. It is that inner strength that has kept me going through with a bright smile. Life has a brilliant key to it. It is the understanding of the silence. The blessing of understanding the human part of this world. To step back for a moment from the entanglements of the beautiful dream and breathe in that elixir of love. Everything is exactly as it is to be. I created each moment here and I am really good at this.
Good at seeing the pattern, the solution and the steps. It is that dance for me to staying focused on just one thing to completion when I have lots of patterns, solutions and steps in my head at once. Beautiful to feel that blissful hugs I give myself with a smile and a laugh.
The other day I was chatting with a friend about my branding. My name is now a brand. He thought he had offended me. Far from it. I did find this amusing with the idea and knowledge of the true worth of labels. How much people place on it. I accept this with humor or it will be a bit overwhelming for me, or maybe I am a bit overwhelmed. Though I now have a better understand of another friend of mine who is a multi-millionaire. He has made it through hard work, connections and his name is a “brand” too. Some thing we can laugh about in truth. I have felt his energy around me lately. I haven’t for a while till now. He is supportive through this time of transition and appreciation goes both ways. He walked away out of the number of obligations he had and needing to focus on those things. I get it now. He has been one of my best teachers and I appreciate his support. People come and go. He knew my path and with a touch of his hands on my face and smirk on his face…”seeing you when you’re famous” were some of the last words he said as he left. I smile now and trust myself a bit more. I didn’t then. I wasn’t too happy with him. Now I got a clue of his brilliance and the trueness of his friendship with me. A gentle kick in my ass and a kiss on the forehead. Beautifully done.
These friends of mine are such great people and a perfect reflection of what I need now. That brilliance in them shines. I am grateful for their honesty. Those four agreements are at play and I breathe in deep and see this pattern is remaining until I do my homework and change my attitude in the right perspective. Get the work done right this time. Focus and let go and be true to the road. Damn, I love this stuff. I knew the truth of things… how this game is played…with the Truth and that human perception at play. It is up to the individual to develop the plan and opportunities…as the wise man, Einstein states.
Trust. And don’t argue. Those arguments just become barriers. Put aside all your knowledge. That knowledge is not going to help. Only being helps, not knowledge; knowledge pretends, promises, but never delivers the goods. So put all knowledge aside. That means to put the whole mind aside, to let the heart function at the optimum. And you will not go empty-handed I would not like you to go empty-handed.
I am ready — you be ready! ~Osho
