Don’t look down!
Oh I’m tired. Tired to my soul. I have so much going on, all of which seems to keep leading along a path which I am trusting is my dharma, but I do need a break I reckon. I have not had an actual holiday for a few years (and I am aware of the double-standards – I always insist that my clients take a break and I am guilty of “do as I say . . . .” here!) and I could do with a week on a beach, sunshine cocktails and company. Still, Summer is here and I will soak up the rays as and when I can.
So, whinge over for today.
I have had an interesting couple of weeks; periods of energy and creativity regularly broken by periods on angst and weariness. A test of my resolve or a message to shift track? I am leaning towards the former – I have to! I have received a couple of those spooky coincidences too. Both messages have emerged in different guises from disparate people and circumstances and, as usual, I ignored them the first couple of times. I know, what an idiot!
The first concerns variations of the theme of “he took us to the edge and told us to jump”. This has recurred many times to me. I am not a practicing Christian (and I understand that this is the acknowledged source) but the essence of the message is profound irrespective of this. Cutting to the chase, my integration of this came when I met a new business contact this week. When we chatted about this (and that) she smiled “knowingly” (if that’s possible?) and said
“I don’t know what you are worrying about; you don’t have to jump or be pushed, you are already flying you just have not realised.” Mmm – don’t look down PF !
I know that these are just “words” but I think that my view on theses messages and coincidences is clear from past entries – they are “sent” to prompt and remind us of issues/situations that need to be addressed. Excellent for me then – just keep flapping and don’t look down!
The second involves the monkey and the trap. You know the tale where the monkey will not let go of the nuts in the trap and so cannot get its arm out to free itself. All it has to do is let go and he is free. I know what my “nut” is and am trying to feel secure in letting go of it. Like the monkey, my grip is tight on the “known” and despite the risks and dangers and the inability to be “free”, I cling on for dear life. The fact that my life is at risk (metaphorically speaking) and I cannot move on UNTIL I let go has obvious relevance to me. I must let go of the nuts! And, I guess, trying to fly whilst holding my nuts is not going to be effective either!
So, for everyone that I meet that says “What are you worried about? You have a great message and the time is right. Step into the light.” I AM trying. I still feel that I need a week on a beach but at least I am more energised and comfortable that I am on the right track. I am not sure who pushed me and I am still emotionally attached to my “nut” but hey, you can’t fly with a handful of nut so I must let go completely and not look down.
Tired but energised.
