Allowing  08.19.15

 My wife and I like to start our day with some spiritual reading.

We’ve both been discussing this one we read recently about allowing.

How often do you find yourself wishing, hoping, or frustrated

with something that’s happened or what someone did or said?

That was the gist of this whole piece we read.

What if you just allowed life to unfold?

Not to pass judgment all the time applying labels such as:

good or bad, happy or sad, wonderful or depressing.

The list could go on and on.

What if we just witnessed it and allowed it.

We like to think so very much is under our control.

Especially with those very close to us. 

We want the best for our children, we want to guide them,

nurture them, not let them make the same mistakes we made.

But isn’t that how we really learn? 

Mistakes and hard knocks are our greatest teachers.

So that’s what we’ve been working on this week the art of allowing.

Make the choices you feel are the best and then allow.

Allow yourself to accept life as it unfolds.

It is an art form since we all seem to be trained at a very early age

to start judging and questioning outcomes.

Try it, if you are like us you’ll see an awareness arise in you

of just how ingrained the judgment habit is

and how freeing it is to release it.

All My Love Always, Keith

From Love Beyond Words by Suzanne Giesemann

Peace lies only within yourself… with the realization that you are

the creator of your own reality.

If you wish to find that peace, allow others to walk their path in peace.

The art of allowing is your path to the same destination.
