Week 2.
So...is anyone else a slight control freak?
Wanting to have a death grip on every single moment, so that things are comfortable, predictable, self-gratifying?
A predictable life is not a true life.
Life by its very own nature is insecure.
Life by its very own nature is temporary and fleeting.
When we try so hard to run the show, we forget that this life isn't necessarily "ours". It is the greatest gift, that we must savor and perhaps later return. There are greater plans attempting to work through our beings. Plans that are nourishing to the whole of humanity once fullfilled. Nourish the whole and each part is nourished, too.
When we boss around life, giving it a name, and putting it on a leash, we are no longer in free relationship to it. We close off the open communication between ourselves and our experience.
Planning requires a future mind.
Of course, there is some practicality in making a plan. However, I'm learning as I go that I can plan all I want, writing the most amazing story for myself, only to continually find myself at point of realization that the best plan is to plan on being repeatedly surprised, shaken, and recreated.
Quit stressing out over your story line, and just live the story with as much heart as you can.
It's heart that ties you too this moment. The richest experience of NOW ❤️
Can you think of a time when you crafted a perfect plan, dotted every -i and crossed every -t only to find out that life decided to unravel in a completely opposite direction?

I'd love to hear from you.
This week, I had the perfect plan of hopping off of my parents' phone plan and joining the big girl world of having my own phone bill. I had every step planned out, polished and smooth. Turns out the company I'm switching too doesn't consider my phone compatible, which is a whole other can of worms. This leaves me phone-less for the week….not what I planned.
BUT, no phone/internet requires a greater demand of creativity and present-mindedness, qualities that enrich humanity as a whole…it wasn't my plan, but it seems like it is working out for the greater good of things.
Perhaps life is really calling upon my heart to come out and play a little more this week.
Until next week loves. <3
