Embrace self-reliance

Notice the world around you is giving you signs that all you have come to rely on outside yourself is unreliable. Patterns in the weather, in economies, in geology, in human behaviour, no longer exist as you once thought. In fact, all you are taught to believe is systematically revealing its not what it seems.  

How you delegate authority, how you earn and where you spend money, is changing based on changing values and priorities.  One perspective is that people are growing more conscious of how they give their power away and how this can be reclaimed.  A shift in awareness or consciousness is triggering other shifts.

Amidst all the curve balls that you do not control, you have the choice to love and accept all that is happening or to resist, disagree and be in conflict with it.  You have the choice to notice the sources of your food, the choice to be more self-sufficient and healthier.  You have the choice of where to live, how to live, and how to spend your time.  Recognize what you have done to this point matters less that what you do right now. Be willing to recognize what does not resonate or feel right.  Let go of attachments.  It is always possible to find the silver lining. 

The scriptwriter emerges

Notice how you attribute responsibility to what appears to be happening, right here.  Notice if you attribute events to God, the universe, Higher power, or something else. Is that so? 

Imagine that wider awareness is revealing itself by part of self that is not yet fully clear.  Imagine that you cease resisting the heart, spirit and choice of being the scriptwriter and architect of life.  What happens as you begin to recognize not-knowing of something at any given moment is a choice of the wider you? Be aware of the page you are on.  A page lasts only as long as you allow it to hold attention. The book of life is constantly unfolding.  You are the camera, writer, director and single actor playing all roles. Every event is of your making.

Be aware.  This book of energy is constanty flowing, changing this is not a matter of a higher being who is not here, creating.  Some events that arise are judged and resisted.  Other events are embraced and loved as they are. The ups and downs of a movie are part of what intrigues you, fascinates and inspires you.  It is all you. 

Like Harry Potter, you are the invisible magician, who is forever changing the story, creating every aspect of the illusion you call life.  Although you script events, you do not script how you respond and feel.  See the same movie or read the same book again, and experience it again, as if for the first time. Diverse experiences exist by choice.

Notice what occurs as you begin to flow with life without wishing to change anything.  You grow detached from the plot and appreciate the wisdom of your scripting. Let go of the pain and never a dull moment. Every moment is a vital part of the unfolding. Trust yourself more. The higher power is you. Love life fully.  Love yourself fully. Embody joy.

Nothing knows everything

Life is not speculative. This experience has a tangible element to it that appeals somehow.  You are a sliding scale of possibilities.  You either limit or expand into nothing and everything. How does it feel to know you are never something, but always nothing? That which knows is the silent everything. It abides in the timeless, spaceless now. You need no thoughts.  They mean nothing. You are never what you think.  You smell the odorless.

Everything is temporary

Everything is temporary.  You can choose to make the most of where you are or not.  You can choose to feel satisfied with the nature of your current experience and retain some meaningful lessons or forget it all.  Nobody but you is responsible for what is happening, for what you are thinking and feeling.  You can stop and rewind the tape or let is continue in another direction.  Play it backward, sideways, even fast forward. What is it to be? What if revelations about what is temporary help you feel your way through what is unreal to sense the real?

"Everything [unreal] is temporary. Everything [unreal] is bound to end." -Keren Ann 

Choose not to doubt

Step back from your current focus and perceived conditions. Know where you are and how you feel is a choice. Many ways exist to see and experience energy or unfolding events. Notice your focus grounded in fear and vulnerability or love and acceptance. Everything points to a higher purpose. Feel blessings and revelations unfold. Imagine a world where fear does not exist and simply abide there.

"Love and doubt have never been on speaking terms." - Kahlil Gibran
