| When you find yourself trapped in to the narrow corridors of the ‘i, me, mine‘ mind, this is your kindly reminder to open out the closed doors, to dust clean the comparing cobwebs, and to move out of your own way. This is your kindly reminder, to give more, to love more, to serve more.
When you find yourself crippled by the small ‘i‘, the individual, the separate, the ‘but I can’t‘s … , the ‘but I am not‘s … , the ‘but I am so‘s … , the ‘if only I‘s … , then, THEN is the very moment to be willing to step back and look again. Then is the very moment to ask instead, How can I give more, How can I love more, How can I serve more … ? When you find that everything is revolving around a centre point of ‘i‘, and you are consumed with spinning stories of what you are or are not (as you perceive it), with stories of what you do or do not have (as you perceive it), with stories of what should or shouldn’t be (as you perceive it), with stories of what you will or won’t do, be, have or deserve (as you perceive it), PAUSE, and Ask Instead . . . . . . . . . . . . :
How can I GIVE more in this moment . . . ? (Pause to hear these words, and then listen) How can I bring more JOY in this moment . . . ? (Pause to hear these words, and then listen) How can I LOVE more in this moment . . . ? (Pause to hear these words, and then listen) How can I SERVE more in this moment . . . ? (Pause to hear these words, and then listen) How can I be KINDER in this moment . . . ? (Pause to hear these words, and then listen) How can I BE MORE PRESENT in this moment . . . ? (Pause to hear these words, and then listen) How can I bring MORE LOVE in this moment . . . ? (Pause to hear these words, and then listen) How can I SEE beyond the small ‘i‘ in this very moment . . . ? (Pause to hear these words, and then listen)
For others, and for yourself too, pause the ‘but i‘s, and ASK INSTEAD … For the highest good for ALL, pause the ‘i, me, mine‘ stories, and ASK INSTEAD … For what you bring forth, will expand, on and on and on. For what you bring forth, is more valuable then you may imagine. For what you bring forth will be radiated and reflected right back towards you, infused with all the love, all the joy, all the peace, and all the kindness with which you choose to share. It isn’t about you on your own, and it never has been ……………. Luckily (!) ……………. but it is your RESPONSIBILITY how you bring forth to others. So take down the walls of the ever narrowing corridors that contain only a small ‘i‘, and know that YOU are enough, know that YOU are not alone, and know that what YOU bring forth will give and give beyond and more then you may ever imagine. Open your eyes to see beyond the self-perpetuated limitations, and ASK INSTEAD, How can I give more, How can I love more, How can I serve more … ?
