Should I Trust Life or Not?

Resisting life is resisting what you really want. So how do you know when you are resisting what you really want? You already know the answer to this question.....

You know when you're allowing what you want because you feel completely at ease. When you are not at ease, resistance is present. You are either moving towards one of two things. What you think will bring you happiness, or true happiness. Happiness is Life itself. So we ask ourselves are we flowing with life or against it?

Lets take a look at what happens when we chase after what we think will bring us happiness:

1) You are often nervous and anxious because life won’t cooperate with your plans
2) You're willing to sacrifice whatever it takes to get what you want, to include your integrity
3) You're usually scheming in some way to win your next victory
4) You are in a battle or recovering from one
5) You are unable to rest quietly when you need to
6) You are easily angered when someone or something gets in your way
7) You are forever driven to want something "else"
8) You are certain that what you have is who you are
9) You are certain that how you feel and what you think is who you are
10) You're always trying to convince yourself that you got what you wanted even when you are not happy.

Now lets take a look at what happens when you want what life wants:

1) You are never disappointed with what happens
2) You are always in the right place at the right time
3) You are quietly confident, no matter what the circumstances
4) You are out of the reach of anger and anxiety
5) You are awake and sensitive to your surroundings
6) You are free of ever feeling as thought that you've missed out
7) You are never thrown by a loss
8) You are in total command of events
9) You are mentally quiet and happy
10) You are eternally grateful

Relax, LIFE which is a constant stream of well-being, is flowing to you and through you. What you really want is here now, welcome it in! There is nothing to be afraid of.

"The moment you stop looking outside of yourself for happiness, is your happiest moment!”

What To Do? The Emptiness of Busy-ness

As I sit under the trees, birds, and, bugs, green all around, I can easily see the abundance of life. I ask myself, why do I worry about what to do next? As the answer surfaces I feel present....

I am amazed at how powerful it is to live in each moment. You don't know what will happen next, but you can expect that at each turn you will be given a gift, and the direction to know what to do. By not worrying about the future you are better prepared for it. By being “aware” right now means you know when a decision is to be made, and how to make it. I have learned that if you don't know what to do in any moment, then there is nothing to do, until you are inspired to act. End of story! When it is time to make a decision you will clearly know! How many times do we spin our wheels doing something useless, because we feel compelled “to do” something rather than trust each moment?

You are a being with no future! Each moment will reveal itself to you perfectly "sit still and the world will roll at your feet". You are a human being, not a human doing. What to do will effortlessly flower right in front of you while you are being presently aware. Your obvious next step will present itself to your feet from who you are being. It is that simple! Just BE!
