SURRENDER



What a big word huh?

Just seeing it makes you question, hesitate, resist.
What do we think we are giving up?
Is it control?
Is it loss of control?
Is it an act of believing something has greater will than we do?

Are we revealing that which we think is a secret when we "surrender"?

Could we be relinquishing something that is or that we perceive as power?

I have come to learn that surrender is a good thing.
Doing it without expectation of what comes next is satisfying.

Therefore, it is not I surrender because X or Y will happen.
It is in fact the truth that I surrender because I can and the ability to just do that is what it is to really harness one's power.

Surrender. Do it now.


It is for me ...picking up my camera and heading out to point it at whatever I see in the world. TODAY

I have not done that in too long. I love my own photography.

It is dancing on the street without the permission of a street festival and with a friend who feels old and necessary while the rhythm is brand new.

It is liking the work I do and the people I do it with. Seeing it rich with possibility because I come in each day with new eyes and that so do they.

These are the gifts of surrender. I get all of this ...because I did, I do, ..you could too.

SURRENDER.

LETTING GO....

  L-E-T-T-I-N-G    G-O You have seen these words before..yes? Very simply written in nine letters. “L e tting  go .” Why does it make you uncomfortable?  It is simply an action that you as a human being experience every single day, just by physically and chemically existing.  It is an action that occurs when you have complete trust in your intuition ; that heaven sent voice inside of you. You know the one you may not always agree with, but the angels are so fond of you ..they send it into your ears, head, heart , and sometimes your eyes? If you are reading this your eyes open and they shut very quickly ..it is called "blinking" but in fact it is letting go and it happens very quickly. As we blink old light goes away and we allow new light to come in …seeing the next moment. As you turned on your computer or device you may have pressed a button, touched the screen, flipped a switch. As you clicked on your mouse, stroked and released keys on the k...

Like the things around us ....

Early last week I got to thinking about how egotistical we all are and how the dominance by the ego drives us straight to hell or rather hellish experiences. The downfall of personal relationships, the global economy, spiritual failures, professional and even physical failings are all the result of ego being in full play. Every bad thing that is happening in the world now can be attributed to horrific egos and disregard . Suffering in all of its proportions are a result of the ego on over drive. I am convinced of this because of things I have learned through my own life experience, quiet observation of others, and also from practicing and following A Course In Miracles over the years. I had someone tell me last week that he was 'looking for clarity in (his) life.' It is such a common thing to hear. People are often seeking either clarity or closure. In this case lack of clarity seems to be a reason to stay in a personal situation that is not exactly the best thing for this ...

Does That Wound Still Hurt?

Anything of trauma left unresolved and not addressed will produce mental, emotional, physical disease in a person, the work, the family, the society at large. Wounds that are not attended to delay us each from allowing and taking hold of the path to our best selves and our divinity. We are in a state of urgency now. If you find someone who offers you the path, take their hand and honor their love and instruction so you may heal the wounds you have which hurt so much...
