Every moment of your life, you are making a choice. I’m not talking about the kind of choice that says breathe or cough, wake up or sleep. Your body’s consciousness is also hardwired to keep you safe and out of danger. It’s the warning that fires off that alerts you to something you need to pay immediate attention to, and do something about it right now. Since those basic navigational guides are already at work on your behalf, it leaves the rest for you. These live-in-the-moment choices have more to do with your desire to create than the need to steer away from danger. There is a higher power, a higher universal river that supports you too, and your full immersion into the creative flow is what brings great joy and happiness into your life.
In this age of mass media, phones, schedules, and the big push to keep up with the race, going with the flow can be challenging. We are by nature multi-taskers and doers. We have been taught that we have to survive to thrive. Pushing your will seems like a natural thing to do, but think again. Consider the idea of changing both your inner view and the world that swirls around you. Like the movie, The Matrix, when you practice allowing for the greater universal flow of grace to be your guide, you begin seeing your day-to-day reality from a very different perspective. You see the holes in the illusion of stressors, the things you feel you must do to stay in the game.
When engaged in the fine art of allowing, you are sensing and feeling your way toward the people, places, and things that truly invoke that inner glow of joy. Your heart—not your head—tells you that you are in the right place and showing up at the right and perfect time.
By discerning when to make those moment-to-moment choices, you are actively engaging with the very source of who you are. Rather than pushing to keep up or protecting your turf, you are allowing yourself to receive universal guidance, which is accompanied by a deep sense of peace and a wellspring of spontaneous joyousness, wonderment and gratitude. Pay attention to when you are in the flow, and the moment you feel yourself pushing, stop what you are doing and drop into the stillness. Learn to make all your choices on the basis of the opening that occurs when you are sensing the expansion of the energy field. Then all that you do is step into the creation. All that you desire is already there. Your task is to stay in the flow of your heart’s desire.
Compassion and gratitude is what amplify this source energy out into your world and create a grid of consciousness that is palpable. The practice of allowing changes everything. Rather than expending emotional capital on bending your will to fit in or pushing for outcomes that don’t even serve a higher purpose, allow yourself to be guided by the universal flow of love. All your choices made this way will find you living more passionately and with a greater sense of purpose.
Just a reminder too: Life is all about the journey and not just about the destination. Your soul has a higher purpose than you can even imagine from your current vantage point. If you are listening to your heart and allowing yourself to be guided, you’ll be delighted and pleasantly surprised as you go. Enjoy the flow of your life.
