As I was driving home last night it occurred to me that it really wasn't me that was moving forward. Sure there was the illusion that my vehicle was moving forward and for this reality we all say that we are always moving towards something. But for a moment I felt completely light and relaxed. I could see the road coming at me and the thought occurred, "Life comes to us. We don't really go to life." So I put this to the test and realized that even when we walk backwards we can't see the past. Sure there are images that come into our view that says, "Hey I'm moving backwards because this looks familiar."
When I shared this with my friend Carol she said this made complete sense to her because we are always feeling that there is something to go towards and we are constantly wearing ourselves out trying to get somewhere. I know I am so guilty of this very fact or doingness.
People who are afraid of living don't move because they don't want life to come to them. People who don't want change stay within the confines of their own experiences because they really don't want what life has to offer, they want to stay within what they know.
So how does life come to us then. Well, as I was riding down the road I realized that just simply allowing things to come to us is as easy and as effortless as driving that car. Sure there is energy that our physical body exerts to make the car move, but that's all the energy our physical bodies have to put out, the rest is the energy on the vehicles part. With this said, it only takes a little energy on our part to be willing to go somewhere and the Universe begins to make it happen. It begins to move, shift and tweak things to allow the energy to be there.
In Quantum Physics we realize that the smallest part of the nucleus is filled full this powerful energy. It can't be seen many times but we know it's there. This energy is within and of everything that we do. But to keep it simple I won't go there today. But it would benefit everyone to start looking at Quantum Physics and know that it is the next phase of our development and evolution. Just like we used to think the world was flat, that we dreamt in black and white, and that there really wasn't any important stuff in the nucleus. Now we are finding out all of these things are not true. So why?
Well, we are growing. So my growth is allowing me to see that I have wasted a lot of energy in chasing something rather than allowing it to come to me. It's all good, for I can now use this as a lesson. The lesson of ease. I don't have to become sick to allow rest, I don't have to allow my body to hit a brick wall to stop me from missing my signs and I sure as heck don't have to experience complete exhaustion just to allow myself to take a vacation. My lessons have been extreme, for sure. But the drive home made me realize that life comes to me, it's just how I choose to experience the opportunities opening up before me. I will choose well.
Belief Statement: I wear myself out just to prove to myself I am strong and worthy and this makes me feel weak, tired, and frustrated. I don't understand how or why I keep trying to get away from myself. I'm gaining complete exhaustion and losing time, energy, health, and awareness.
Spirit Statement: I am strong and worthy of strength, movement, and peace and understand I am secure in myself and my ability to completely enjoy relaxation while in the flow with energy, health and awareness.
