Love Moved In- Chapter 1

Chapter 1

I stepped out of the cave and into the sunlight and was dazed. My body was stiff from sitting cross-legged for so long but I'd never felt so alive. 

Everything seemed new, like the Earth after a big storm. Washed clean of my over-extending mind, I didn't wonder how long it would last. 

My breath was deep and steady, my eyes, now adjusted to the daylight, darted about as if for the first time. I drank in the colors, the bird song and the earthy composted leaf smell, that were all competing for my attention. I felt the energy around me talking to the energy within me.   

I felt so much love coursing through me. Like a river, it swept through me. 

I'd had these feelings before, but not as strong as this or for as long. I didn't own it but I knew I belonged to it and I felt at one with it. 

I felt so comfortable, so at peace, I didn't feel I had to go anywhere or be anything. 

I wasn't thinking this, that or the other and worrying about the results or deadlines, I just was. 

A clear and gentle voice spoke silently to my soul. " The time has come for your heart to sing, your heart has fully opened and there is no closing it. There is no going back, even the thought to return has gone. You are free in eternal peace and oneness. The journey has ended, the striving has ended, now there is just, breathing and flowing."

"Everyday I will have a task for you, there is a lot to do in your new beingness. Fear has left you, anxiety has moved out and loves moved in. Treat her well and she will serve you well, serve her well and in return your life will be blessed with more than you have ever desired."

"Listen carefully, follow directions to the letter,  don't procrastinate, don't hesitate, don't deviate. 

Be the love that you are, be the truth that you are, be the change that you want. 

If you are struggling with something, go within, sit silently and listen to the wind. Be in the world but not of the world.... go!"

I sat and put my hiking boots back on, picked up my bag and made my way back to the path, that meandered slowly, back down the mountain to where I'd parked the 4WD. 

Courage

Courage is not,

the absence of fear but the ability,

to carry on,

with dignity,

in spite of it. 

Truth

When I look into your eyes,

I can see you live your truth. 

You step lightly through this doubt- filled world,

not needing any proof.

 Your a warrior and a leader 

and I hope you get it all. 

I pray your days are filled with light

and your  obstacles always small. 

Possibility

When a possibility comes,

grasp the fragile instinct,

behind a hesitation, 

without tipping,

the balance. 

You'll See.

Remember God always and
Surrender to God always. 

Give up,

on what's in it for me 

and God will help...

you'll see!!!!!!

Abandon

When there is no judgement,

there is no fear of being judged.

You set the heart free to dance,

with pure, sweet, unadulterated... abandon.

Spirit

Body will always follow,

mind and emotions. 

Mind and emotions ,

will always follow spirit. 

So Spirit must speak the loudest 

and Spirit is you in me. 

Spirit must be soft 

and sweet like icing sugar,

that will easily dissolve into me. 

But it must also be strong of will 

and discipline. 

Spirit must lead 

and set the example.

Humanness

Religions come out of our humanness...

they flourish only as long,

as they are nourished ,

by our humanness. 

Humanness is the soil

and religion is the tree,

that grows in that soil. 

Some take care of the soil, 

others tend the tree

and some fight,

for possession of the fruit. 

                                     Mahatma Ghandi

Desire

Desire,

then Commitment,

then Determination,

with Surrender, Faith, 

Patience and Confidence...

total acceptance of Gods will

with no attachment,

to the fruits of our labor.
