It is never what happens to you, it is how you react to it, and the position you choose to assume. As you shake off the energies that may have collected from any perceived setback, from past disappointments and all the assumptions of what you thought, as you put attention on your commitment into what you are for, to love, as a movement, there is nothing to do but shake it ALL off and KEEP ON going.
When you are committed to creating something new in the world, it requires breaking free of the gravity of fear, failure and the feeling that no matter what step you take it won't matter. Like my favorite songwriter, Dorothy Fields wrote, "allow yourself missteps, mistakes, and falling down, to be part of the process, so you can rise again..." Hold a vision for what is being born through your failure's as the practice of what is. The greatest satisfaction is taking loving action on the things you are here to do, the intuition of what is possible. Consider the possibilities, create a field where ideas thrive and flourish.
What commitment do you want to make? For you? For good? For Love? What do you want to see happen? What do you want? Truly from that place that knows. When Edison talked through his invention, the moment of breakthrough or not his answer to 'Why do you keep trying?" was "I know 10,000 ways it doesn't work." Experience the expression that wants to come through. Allow the process to be cherished, to be honored, to be loved. Enjoy a new day full of elegance for the falls.
AND.
"Will you remember the famous folks who have to fall, to rise again, So take a deep breath, pick yourself up, shake it all off and start all over again.”
Developing the musculature of deeper loving to allow the gentle magic and miracles of being able to flow requires you gain experience, of practicing ways to grow. Another way to say it, You don't know until you have gone through it. Falling down allows you to shift your perspective to see things from another vantage point, to be in your authentic humbleness. In stillness you have access to your intuition that knows what it wants you to learn, what it wants you to participate in to meet the people you are here to meet to do the work you are here to do. Find your stillness and listen.
When you practice today's principle of love and you allow what no longer serves to fall away, to shake off what has been bothering you, you own the wholeness pattern, the light and the dark.
There are no mistakes. Experience brings you to divine love and wisdom.
Affirm It
I connect easily to my inner power.
May your day be free from strife and worry and all your steps be light and bright as you anchor in your loving wisdom.
The transformation we need in the world requires a revolution of values: one that includes systems and new political leadership and that stretches beyond all of it to what lies beneath, to shift the very DNA of our culture and the people encoded within it. This is a revolution that can be actualized and sustained because it leads from the power of love to fundamentally change individuals groups, communities and systems. It’s a revolution that does not divide or conquer but instead, as Taoist strategist Sun Tzu writes in the Art of War, 'keeps everything under the universe whole.'
