HOW DO I GET TO LOVE-BREAKING OUT INTO FREEDOM OF BEING
Mon February 15, 2010, 10:28 am

We have all been disappointed over and over again. Life is like this. We want others and the world to match our needs, values and expectations and they have their own agenda.

We know how it- life-relationships-jobs-health-happiness-more - is supposed to be, according to us, and life takes it’s own twists and turns. We even miss our own mark for ourselves, and then get down on ourselves as well.

For life to be magical it must be free and so must we. Getting to that freedom is the adventure and the journey to being fully you and understanding the truth of universal laws that govern our worlds.

Life is just life, as one wise student once said to me. The law of attraction brings you things that are not on your conscious wish list to experience. People, issues, relationships, losses, pains and gains that are not in your control, show up and you wonder-why me?

Becoming conscious is to be open to the spiritual journey of our lives. Why are we here? What do we have to learn? What do we have to teach? Some of us are born masters to teach and learn deeper lessons, as examples and for our soul growth.

Each one of us has a path of wonderous possibility to experience. All are equally important. We choose each moment how, when or where? Honoring our journey and not taking it so seriously, and at the same time being aware that every action and reaction counts, is something to learn.

When we awaken from our personal perspectives of roles, rules, separation and inner dialogue of expectations every moment, we can be free to experience life with appreciation and possibility.

To let go of societal expectations and rules allows you to discover your truth. Caught in the wheel of unconscious have to’s and shoulds keeps us stuck. Our wounds from the past keep us in patterns and beliefs that are self-fulfilling prophecies.

We cannot see these from the middle of the muddle of our unconscious minds. We believe what we hear in our head, and have challenges knowing how to get out.

Fear of living outside the box of our families, friends or current world keeps us stuck. My path has been to break out of the walls or roof of any box I find myself in any moment, and breathe.

It’s never quite as scary as we think. Actually there is more air and we did not realize how much we have been holding our breathe before. It is actually quite comfortable expanding into more of us.

That is correct we have been holding out on ourselves in the boxes of illusion we were trapped in. In our more expanded state we see and feel more of truth and illusion and it is so much more fun.

Seeing a life of becoming more us, is much more fun, than thinking we know it all.

Placing rules and limitations on how it is done keeps us in boxes of limitation.

Healing and becoming is messy and not always easy. Do it anyway. You may look or feel foolish before you feel comfortable with the freedom of being. Breaking out causes cracks in the structure to allow a new true structure to appear.

Like a baby bird cracking the shell of the egg to be born, so each one of us need to crack long held ego structures of the past to allow new birth.

Staying attached to being accepted to others keeps us from being and accepting ourselves. Others judge you whether you listen to their loud or silent expectations or not. What is more important is your own self-acceptance and respect.

Dis-ease comes from living against you in myriad ways. Each day of this life is a new adventure in discovery, action and being.  Loving your life and being your truth is a journey worth exploring.

Love comes from giving up the ghosts of supposed to’s and opening your heart to what is and finding the beauty in everything.

So much more to come

Enjoy the journey. Or not!
