Hello Sweet Beings
Have you noticed how heavy, slow and stuck the world has become over the last 3-6 months?
Do you feel like you are holding the world of doom, gloomy and worry on your shoulders?
It seems that no matter where we look there is bad news – be it of the economy, loss of jobs, companies and people going in liquidation and the global situation be it economic or environmental.
I can see people around me feeling like they are swimming in a pool of murky treacle and the fear that they will never get out!
So maybe the answer is not to worry, not to let the news make you dreary with its negativity and cut us off from being about who we really are which is LOVE.
Atlas who held the world upon his shoulders, soon got bent for his trouble. I wonder -
Did he love what he was doing? Did he love holding the world up on his shoulders?
If the task was filled with love and made him feel great then maybe we are wrong to be sorry for him?
We know enough about emotions to know that good ones create more good ones and bad ones create even worse.
For most of us we cannot change the current situation, we can only weather it, come through it and look after our families, friends and communities – and if we do this the nations will look after themselves and the world will be a better place.
I can’t help thinking that not matter how grim things are we can laugh.
That when things are tough the entertainment industry does a very healthy business in film, live shows and concerts.
That when we are feeling down, we yearn for things that will relieve the constant drugery of it all.
Maybe, this sense of coming to a stop financially is about having the time to see what is really important to us?
Maybe who we really are, how we really relate and what really makes our heart sing is not success, but love.
And if that’s the case then many of us are already blessed.
And for those of us who are not?
Time to dust off our heart muscle, open our eyes and
get our blood singing to the tune of love.
Now that sounds like a great task to be putting energy into don’t you think??
Till next time, may you find love Sweet Beings,
Melody
