Travelling at the Speed of Love
This week marks the final chapter in our 10-week Awakening in 2014 newsletter series. And it’s here that we learn what awakening actually means.
Lying deep within us is a pool of love, light, playful creativity, grace, peace and unconditional love. This pool can be hard to locate and take a swim in due to the stressful interference that gets in the way.
It’s challenging for us to connect with this special place when our thoughts are being pulled in 1,000 different directions every moment of every day. How will I pay the bills? What time do the kids need to be picked up? I’m tired of feeling tired! I wish “this” was not happening in my life. I can’t wait until “this” happens in my life. Remember how great “that” was? This feels good, I want more. Etc. Etc. Etc.
All of this seemingly real stuff interferes with our connection with this pool that I refer to as Pure Consciousness. Others may call this pool God, Source, Unified Field, Allah, Light, etc.
Important Pool Rule
These newsletters have been about clearing out the stressful interference in order to pave the way for a deeper connection with the pool of Pure Consciousness.
By putting these newsletter tips into practice we “awaken” our connection with this pool and realize something very special. We aren’t a human looking to take a swim. We’re the pool itself. With this realization the waters of the Pure Consciousness pool and the qualities that come with it (see paragraph 2 above) become a bigger part of who we are and this leads to the ultimate benefit.
The Ultimate Benefit: Discover It Forward
By taking the time to meditate, pray, communicate with love and more we discover the “It” within which is the pool of Pure Consciousness and its qualities. At this point our life begins to change in a very beautiful way.
This rising up of positive energy naturally bursts out from us and graces our friends, family and pretty much anyone else we come into contact with. Doing this work is the most generous and supportive thing we could do for us, our loved ones and the world. Keep it up!
One Final Awakening Strategy: Miracle Journal
The first thing I would do is review the Awakening in 2014 newsletters and choose a place to get started. I would highly encourage you to start with developing a daily retreat centered around mediation and prayer (see Newsletter #1: Daily Retreat).
My final tip would be to keep a miracle journal. Every day miracles happen. From getting a good parking spot to having time to take a break amidst a crazy day to a good talk with a friend, the list goes on and on. Finish your day by recording and savoring the miracles you were gifted with that day.
