It's five to one in the morning but quite frankly if I don't write this now perhaps I won't get round to it for another six months. I have no idea where I have been as to not write this, but I have come to the conclusion that sometimes one has to study in life to learn and sometimes we have to take some practical lessons. I think that's what I have been doing actually.....and it's been an inspirational journey.
Our new puppy has been a wonderful addition to the family and I take him out into the fields every morning for a 3 mile hike across some of Suffolk's most beautiful countryside. Perhaps I am just getting old, but I LOVE walking him and the effect it is having on my mind, body and spirit. I often find myself in the middle of a huge open beautiful space thinking how lucky I am to be able to live in such an amazing place. I love watching the seasons change, as so far, I have trudged through snow and rain, picked Spring flowers and of course at the moment during this heatwave I have watched the crops gradually ripen in the sun. I feel fit and healthy and my mind has never been clearer. And I am totally in love......... with our little black Miniature Schnauzer Woody.
The other walk though, the spiritual one, is not for the faint hearted, some find it difficult to understand why I can not simply stop. I have of course come off the path a few times, but it keeps finding me in the end and the draw to continue is extraordinary. I am not sure that even the work I did a couple of years ago has a any relevance to what I am learning and passing on in my teaching today. I have discovered so many new understandings, which have gone on to help other people..thank you universe.
Of course, we must have bad in this world so we can understand what good is. But it's how we approach this that matters. Learning to detach from negative people and those with an ego is tough and can be very painful. It always comes back to the self and I understand that you only attract what you already are into your life. But the ego is, in my opinion, the nearest thing to evil as we know it. A human led by ego is afraid, needs constant approval, is insecure, and will take no regard for others and their feelings.
The human who has let go of their ego, lives from the soul within. The soul knows there is no need to be afraid of being alone, as we are never really alone. The soul does not need approval, as approval from others doesn't exist...after all, who is better than another? The soul trusts in itself and feels at one, it recognises that insecurity is merely a waste of it's energy.
The soul is an extraordinary energy, the ultimate energy, and when that energy is used in the right way then it can heal the body, the mind and your path in life. Those who's lives are spiralling out of control are living from the ego.
I have worked on my energy for some months now and I have watched interesting things take place, I can not emphasise enough the importance of giving your energy away. Life is a series of adventures and moments, some will make you feel wonderful whilst others will be tough. It's how you see them that matters, what you learn from them. Letting go of a situation when it's difficult allows the Law of Karma to take place, let the Universe sort out your problems and just move on. I have found it difficult at times but seeing others wasting their energy on situations is a wonderful reminder that I need to let go too.
I have some wonderful people in my life and I have learnt some wonderful lessons from some not so wonderful situations, now it's time to go and work with those who want to change and be happy and wish goodbye and good luck to those who don't.
Right bed time.....the sun will be rising up above those fields soon and a little dog will be giving me that look!
