Where are you shutting off?
Where are you locking things down?
Where have you assembled rigid rules?
Where are you placing an unnecessary boundary??
Where are you allowing dust to collect, to settle and fester in to the creases of control?
Where have you carved a groove so deep that you are stifled by its overfamiliarity?
Where is there a bum-shaped hole in your sofa (so to speak), that fear keeps you returning to over and over? Where do you find yourself sleep walking through, forgetting to STAY OPEN to the ever newness of each unique moment??
Think of all the times that you have been adamant about something, so concrete, so very definite . . . only at some point down the ‘line’ to shift your perspective. Think of all the times that you have bookended yourself in with seemingly ‘real’ limitations, thereby bookending the experience you might have, as supposed to living in to it. And think of all the times that you have settled in to a well-known habit for fear of loosing imagined ‘control’, for fear of all that is unknown, for fear of what might come if you really allowed yourself to look anew.
TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF, and stay open.
Allow for the space to really look anew, and soon will you see the fear dissolve.
Reach beyond the stories, beyond the apparent protective enclosure, and stay open to another way……….. even just a little.
When the words ‘can’t‘, ‘should‘, ‘shouldn’t‘, ‘never‘… or ‘it’ll always be this way‘, are found tripping off your tongue, catch them, one by one . . . hear them, and choose again.
Let there be SPACE for the ongoing movement of Life. Let there be SPACE for all that seems to come and go. Let there be SPACE for the newness of You to arise in each and every moment, as you stay open . . . more and more, again and again.
Pre-empt, not. Limit, not.
Pause in gratitude for the opportunity to clean away decisions made prior, and see see see, and be be be, in THIS Now, only.
