More Then I Expected!

Saturday, June 27th, 2009
 
I was so geared up for this Saturday. I don’t know why but I could feel that I was excited about this Saturday in particular because I planned on going to a Sweat Lodge and connect with others who share a lot of the same positive energy. I’ve done seats before but somehow I felt this one to be different. And Yes, different if was. Got there and the fire was just being put together (that takes at least 1 ½ hrs.) and as I sat there observing everything along with more and more people arriving and I knew we could put 35 in on lodge secession but people kept coming.

So many people showed up that there were 2 lodges back to back in order for everyone to participate. So, I wanted to go in the first lodge. Intention -oops I was saying I don’t want to be in the second lodge. Well as attraction has it – I was in two – because I focused on what I didn’t want rather than on what I wanted. Ok, this will be a lesson on patience this could be a good thing.

Myself and a young man decided to go do some breathing exercises to fill in the time and do something constructive for ourselves. We go so into this breathing exercise and got down to the heart of releasing what was blocking our progresses and in taking what we desired that we were late for the lodge.

Yes, late by two rounds. There are four rounds in a sweat lodge. The thing is all was perfect. Perfect in it’s own right we were right where we were suppose to be at each given moment and when we entered the lodge after permission from the pourer (chief) she said we now have our balance you are here at the right time.

It was perfect and so was the remainder of the day as it unfolded for all of us at the center and how my day continued in flow with each thing in place. I learned about allowing again today but from a different aspect and experience.

People say just allow. Ok, what does that mean just allow. You ask the question what does allowing mean and you get “just allow”. Boy is that really clear – LOL.

So, what is it?

Well, today I believe I experienced the definition of allowing by feeling every moment of a situation by just releasing all thought about how things should or shouldn‘t be. Allowing is letting go; what I mean is allow WITHOUT any doubt whatsoever in any given moment.

Easier said than done but today was a perfect example by letting all things just happen in its own law of perfection. I released any anxiety; my fear or worry about how something should happen and just let things flow.

Synergy: flow at its highest level and the fact that I noticed and became aware of what I was feeling created the beauty of experiencing each moment in its entirety. As the day continued I was in the space to be in a space to allow.

Hello world!

Hello World I guess that says it all!
This is my first comment and though I usually have a lot to say I’m finding this a little bit different. You see I would much rather talk than sit and write my thoughts other than my journaling but my intention is to put it out there. Wherever there is!
 
So, today became a turning point in this adventure totally out of my comfort zone (Yeah). I’ve thought about a blog but than it was what would I say and what would it mean to me or anyone else. Well that is a question I’ll have to allow to unfold for itself and we’ll see where it leads us.
 
 I woke up this morning with a feeling of loss, my strength lowered to pain and as I quickly became aware of my thoughts the gifts that surround me awakened from within to remind me of the abundance that is all around me.
 
Gratitude is my place in the sun today. I changed my thoughts which has now changed my day and I am so grateful for today.
