Rich steps.....

A physical journey I have ensued for the last 7 weeks..... A journey on so many different levels all at the same time. And on reflection, all aspects so skillfully woven together as only the Universe can do...
My husband, my dog and I travelled for 'work'- a challenge and an enjoyment in itself - meeting a huge multitude of people in the time and moving through a huge array of landscapes - coast to highlands, oceans to rivers and the different species of flora and fauna that inhabit the areas..

Now returned, and four days on - I am 'waking' from a deep rest and now enjoying the process of gathering strength and feeling myself 'fill' up from Spirit's energy bowser....I have another chance again to enjoy time in this physical life...And OH !!!!!! I DO SO LOVE THIS PHYSICAL WORLD!!!
There IS a joy and there IS a magic here that is hard to perhaps recognise ALL the time - yet when we fully embrace it, feel it, recognise and ENJOY it - it is manna from heaven. It is this Manna, this pure essence that we are here to share and propagate. It is the nature of the essence that the more it is shared and LIVED, expressed and FELT - thicker and richer and more abundant it becomes - naturally!!
I am feeling that it is not just simply the 'light' now - but a denser more physical expression OF THIS LIGHT that I and many others are choosing to carry. I am seeing a vision of an army of people all carrying, not torches, but a bottle of essence, of golden nectar. We are all walking forward in a deliberate direction - totally focused and with no doubt whatsoever - there is no question , no hesitation of any form. It is a strong wave and one rich with Heart...
I look further on but realise there is no need - to keep moving forward and to look around and know there are many who share the same Heart - they are grand steps we take and all we need to remember is to enjoy them!!!!

STILLNESS AND RHYTHMS

There is such stillness outside that is is quite extraordinary as light comes to the day. Even the birds seem reluctant to move around too much and disturb the atmosphere even though they’re singing their morning tunes.

There is no hurry for right now – it feels as though there is all the time in the world and we are in ‘universal’ time. I feel the essence of time – about moving or slowing or stopping along with Nature. To change with her,. To listen to Nature and her rythmms and we will know ‘what time it is’. We have our own inbuilt rhythm-maker, which, although still follows Nature’s time zone, uniquely expresses itself through us. Are we a flower or an evergreen, do we shed our leaves with Nature’s changing time? Maybe that is a surprise to us as well. Only in a particular time do we find other expressions within us – ways that only emerge following Nature’s rythms or when our rhythm aligns with Hers????????

I look to Bear, and around the landscape we have been in for a week or two now. The wolves are with Bella in this world and I am not to follow them at this time.  Bear strongly moves my focus and attention , still within this world, yet to my own vision. I am on a small hill out in the open. I have moved further than my first point of entry with Bear but still, not much further on. Bear reminds me that ‘distance’ cannot be judged in the old way. For look what has occurred within this space of movement. There is a different feeling, a different perspective, a different experience at every turn and every view….A miracle in itself…So within todays step, even though I can see where I have been the last  week or two, it is totally a new experience – offering new lessons, insights, miracles and always holding the magic of life itself…This is ‘making the most of life’ – feeling the very space where one is at any particular time.  Feeling it is living it! To wonder of the future and worry of the past is to move into a space that is not concurrent with Nature’s (or our own) rhythm so can not be felt. It can only be felt if that vision is granted in the present space. So attention and focus need to be maintained with the stillness….Waiting is being still with a different pace – still part of the rhythm, it just requires a different step. All steps, including this step or space , is to be savoured, embraced , lived and enjoyed!!!

And this is how it is…..

A SENSE OF Humour.

I am standing with Bear in a wide open area - flat rocks, grass and magnificent sunshine. My mind has been using all sorts of distraction techniques to divert me from entering this space....It feels so good when the Heart directs proceedings (as I hope to always do in time). And one thing I notice is that the mind actually loves it! For now it is in its rightful place.....To just allow things to be as they should be, as they naturally are - then peace and harmony reign..
Back to this wide open world. Bear takes off running and I can see his coat glistening in the sun and the way it moves and separates and comes back together again with each step he takes. He is such a delight. I run with him. What a feeling of freedom!!! He reminds me to really FEEL the earth as it comes into contact with my feet. As I focus on this, I feel as though the earth is enjoying a 'massage!' It is the sense of joy and lightheartedness that makes the difference. She in turn offers wonderful support - solid and strong. I am recognizing this contact with the Earth is vital - so, so vital. Often this is abandoned in people's search for higher or lighter ways of being. It is only with the contact of the earth ,can the vitality offered by life, be felt and embodied....One must be out 'feeling the earth'......There are no two ways around this - this is how it is. And I am no exception Bear strongly reminds me..The contact with the earth is also 'practicality, realistically etc'. There needs to be an awareness of this just as much as there needs to be an awareness of that which is above, beyond and a lot greater than we can imagine.
I see Bear tell me , "this is the real deal". Yet within the 'real deal' - there is a sublte but spacious place or way to manoeuvre - and this is from or within a place of 'humour' - lightheartedness,
I am able to feel the 'lead weights' that may fill my heart at times. I realise now they do not come from the earth or the practicalities of life. They come from my BELIEF they do!! I have been falsely stuffing my suitcase, so to speak , with stuff that is in fact useless for my journey and then taxing every part of me by having to cart it around..!!!
Bear reminds me to just notice this - no feelings attached. It is from here that one must regard it with a SENSE OF HUMOUR. For to berate oneself just adds to the load!!!!
So, to laugh at oneself is often overlooked yet is a Natural law. To laugh at oneself is not a 'superficial surface-only' laugh. It goes way beyond. In fact, something doesn't have to have a massive joke attached to it in order to 'laugh'. To 'laugh' is a response of joy, of lightheartedness, of movement, of shaking off. It is a way of being......an energy to hold at all times in our awareness.
A 'sense of humour' is indeed just that - it is a 'Sense'. A sense of smell, of taste, of sight - a sense of humour. To develop this sense in oneself is a strength.
I ask Bear ways to go about developing this sense. "Bring the light into any and every situation.. Allow the light to dominate, allow the light to lead. Create a light 'trigger'  within your being. Develop your sense of light.
I look around and notice Bear and I are totally in the light. We are light enough to continue our journey.
