Wednesday is my birthday and was sharing with some of my girlfriends how I am choosing to make this my 'new year'.
Since the beginning of 2016 has been riddled with challenge, loss, change, and confusion, I am choosing to enter my 36th year by choosing joy but I know that on this path there is no promise of a happily ever after.
Life is full of success and failures (and sometimes super successful failures!), pain and beauty, unbearable suffering, ordinariness, challenges and grace.
Life happens but it is up to us to make it Holy.
It is my view that we can take each day as an assignment.
When we commit to taking responsibility for what we put into this world, to pause and breathe and let the vast space of Presence embrace the stickiness, our daily assignments can be experienced as opportunities for greater growth and discover our Truth.
And in this willingness we come to feel more free, happier, and at peace.
Our lives have meaning beyond the soap opera our mind can create.
Throughout the past couple of months this mindset has helped me to face each challenge with grace, have faith, and subdue my suffering.
The suffering, loss, and challenges that have presented themselves, although not necessarily welcome, have been accepted and honestly, I felt as though I was being tested.
On what?
My commitment to Truth.
This is not an easy assignment but through my studies in A Course in Miracles, my daily meditation practice, and vulnerably sharing this journey with you, I have been repeatedly reminded that I am not alone.
And even if we stumble and fall a thousand times, or fear failure of these life 'tests', we can turn inward and remember who we are and what we are here for.
So here I am again sharing something very vulnerably with each of you but it became clear to me that I do because not one of us is immune to suffering.
I am gifting you with meditation from my future book.
It is a ten minute meditation that begins with a prayer to the Divine Mother.
It is a meditation for when you are going through a challenging time, feel doubt, fear, or worry, or have suffered a loss.
This is vulnerable for me because it is very private.
The prayer is one I wrote the day after Lola passed and the meditation is the one I have been practising each day since.
It has helped me tremendously.
In any moment that has arisen in my day where I feel the suffering of loosing Lola, these are the words and one minute moments that help me get through and return to joy, peace, and freedom.
I hope it serves you as much as it has me.
And, behind the scenes while away in Nica, I worked on getting the Movement + Miracles Online Forum up and running.
The irony is not lost on me that they are all about cultivating Joy and many of the practices and teachings have been a rock in getting me through the past couple of months and continue choosing joy over fear each day.
And that is why I am super stoked to open them up to You now too!
