It has been months since I wrote....on my blog and in general....writer's block? Perhaps. Things shifting and energy being required elsewhere? Feels that way. I feel like so many of us are used to life unfolding and unfolding and unfolding...in certain, predictable ways. However, what happens....what do we experience....how do we feel...when things shift and our "norm" doesn't occur as we feel it should?
Many of us would feel frustrated. Uncertain as to what is happening. Why are things slowed or stopped? Why do I feel so unproductive in this area of my life? We ask all the "whys" as to what isn't happening and often miss what amazing things are instead occurring for us! It may all look and feel different and perhaps has shifted our gears, so to speak. And if we really stop for a moment to take in what is REALLY occurring, we begin to see that EVERYTHING is in DIVINE and PERFECT ORDER! That life is still unfolding for us....just in different ways...changing the scenery for us....to keep us exploring news areas of this wonderful life that we are here experiencing!!!
For me, I had that moment of frustration...wondering why no writing was coming....nothing.....................for days............................and days....................................and days......................
And then.....when I let go of the expectation for any writing to happen....I saw that other areas of my life were opening and unfolding and happening in ways that were so beautiful and inspiring!!! That I was exactly where I needed to be....it's just that it felt different from the "normal" flow I was used to.
It's important for us to follow the natural flow and rhythm of our own life and the cycles that we flow in and out of. Some days or weeks or months you may be on a creative high........other times you may feel tired and can't keep your eyes open.....and yet other moments you may feel the need to travel and be adventurous.....If you feel you want to sleep, sleep. If you feel inspired to write, write. If you want to enjoy weeks with your lover in bliss land, bliss out. Whatever the cycle is that you are in, fully enjoy it! Ride it out! Each of these cycles and moments are unique and will pass and will change. And when a moment passes, things will never unfold exactly the same way as it did ever again.
Instead of judging self for not being creative or not feeling inspired or not being more active or for resting.....enjoy the flow what is occurring, often the down-time and really appreciate WHAT IS happening right then and there! That's when we can fully step into our lives and appreciate each and every moment, cycle and event that occurs!
Just like the leaves that turn from bright green to crimson shades that seem to glow in the fall season....enjoy the transformation that is taking place before your very eyes. Breathe it in! I promise you, life will begin to feel more fulfilling and enriched because you are being present to what is instead of what isn't.
Ride the waves of life and flow with the cycles of change.....
