Vancouver is in a fog. For the past 10 days or so a blanket of white mist hovers over the city. I wonder if it is an indication of the murkiness of the global Human condition. Are we all in a daze?
I write these words today, January 20, 2009, a day of history making and resurrected hope. Today we are presented with a choice, a challenge if you may: Will we notice only what is mirrored back to us, a state of life suggesting uncertainty and impending financial gloom; or will we see beyond the surface, past the temporary circumstanced fog, and trust in the invisible force, a higher intelligence, that is always working alongside us…
And will we remain asleep and detached from the collective, from one another, hiding our authentic self behind a concealing veil of pseudo-living in our search for happiness and More; or would we step up and out of the haze let go of our longing for excess and greed, reach out to those who have much less, and shed some aspects of what we hold on to that no longer serve us in our current situation…
And so here’s my provocative invitation to you:
Can you still hold on to your dreams, aspirations, and core essence despite all real or perceived external threats to your wellbeing? Can you still see with utter clarity that you have emerged into this physical life to be in a state of bliss and joy, to accomplish greatness, to connect, to be of service to yourself, others, and the animals in your sacred journey…? Can you still see this with your inner eye despite the temporary fog??
If so, ask yourself (as I ask myself daily):
What does it take?
What must I become in order to birth this vision into creation?
Am I willing to let go of control for a desired outcome and release it to the light?
Am I willing to trust that I am the author of my own story and thus I can count on the divinity within me to provide me with solutions when I ask for guidance?
Am I willing to ask for guidance??
I hereby make the decision to come out of whatever fog I may be living in, and embrace life in its fullest. No matter what the consequences may be, I thus commit to each and every moment of joy, bliss, pain, or grief that may present themselves in my path; with humility, compassion, and tenacity for the sake of growth and of being of service for the highest good of all!
Join me if you wish, I welcome your company!
