Dear One,
Have you woken up this morning
unmotivated
resistant
bored
Not wanting to get out of bed?
So stay and be
Who says you have to get up to
meditate
make breakfast
exercise
clean the house
Is it?
your mother
your father
your partner
your teacher
Are they here now?
Or is it just some remnant of the past…. the “shoulds”…. or else….
Or else what?
What would happen if you just laid here in bed?
breathing
feeling
not feeling
letting the mind do what the mind does
Taking in the entire moment
How good it feels to lie here warm and protected
How uncomfortable the inner division is
(I should but I don’t want to)
And in the midst of it all something moves through and you find yourself
Sitting on the edge of the bed
Starting your day
The birds are singing, the wind is breezing, the sun is rising, the grass is growing
We think we’re making decisions
But Life is simply moving through us
Relax, be and trust
All is well.
