This morning I was remembering something very helpful about Enlightened Living...
(To the Self) I keep my focus upon what I can effect now. π
I remember I use to only address what came up in my immediate experience. This was my guide to what was important, and I knew better to stay out of things that had nothing to do with me or what was important to me. I was present in Love as others talked about Life, but I did not get involved unless it brought me Joy. There is an efficiency of Being available as I chose only Joyful interactions. In Christianity this is known as going from Glory to Glory. In normal daily living it is known as having a Good Day where one good thing leads to another which leads to another. For those on a Spiritual Path, it is known as being in the Divine Flow. For those who are Mastering themselves, it is a process of active and Aware choice moment to moment. π
My energy and time is my own, and I have priorities as I consider where I invest it. This is Enlightened choice. Choice with self respect, self Love, good boundaries, and Awareness. Balanced healthy Love and care for others blossoms from this solid foundation. π
As many Teachers share the βBe Here Nowβ, βThere Is Only Nowβ, and βNow Is The Only Thing Thatβs Realβ Teachings, I want to offer my own Perspective that will be helpful to do this and really walk it out in it in the World π...
Everything takes care of itself, if we take care of what is in front of us right now. Things get done moment to moment no matter how good at multitasking we are. One thing is happening at a time. If we slowed our roll, we would see this. Do what we ~can do~ now. Focus upon what we ~can do~ now. This will feel like we are clearing out a Beautiful path in the Wild Forest of our Lives and Minds. Anything else is only worth our time and attention if we care and really WANT TO TAKE ACTION. Everything else is everything else. We are here to do what we want to do. Letβs get focused and get started. π
Action can be anything from sending money to help a child in an impoverished country get an education to addressing an issue at your childβs school to becoming active in politics to working out to Praying. Enlightened Living means we are at One with ourselves and all of Creation...thought, word, and action, and this is a tiny bit of guidance about how we can do it while being in the World. π
Brightest Blessings & Love!!!
