A life is comprised of endless chapters and seasons I am discovering. To be filled with curiosity, an openness and to understand that perhaps we are the ones placing the kibosh on those places, people and things we are desiring? This can occur when we’re living from within the ‘Ring of Fire.’
This ring can become a self protective mechanism that we have constructed, often not consciously, after a trauma, a crisis as a means of self protection. Not wanting to subject ourselves to that kind of agonizing heartbreak ever again. However, what can occur is that the ring of fire can also hinder and keep out the positive aspects that are trying to enter within. Those things filled with love, healing, light, awareness, choices, a new path to name a few.
Reminding ourselves that the Universe has a long list of all the things we don’t desire, yet what about being very clear about what we do hope and wish for. Not a shopping list for Spirit, yet part of this human existence is to have preferences and that’s okay. Just as long as we don’t become too invested that it must look and be delivered in a certain way.
I ask Spirit to surprise me daily as I trust that my finite mind simply cannot comprehend at all times what is in my highest and greatest good. I wonder why this is not our default and go to mode? Because in the end is so much easier to live this way, than by trying to white knuckle and ‘control’ it all with expected outcomes.
There is a part of me that wishes I had caught onto this vital life hack decades ago. I was inching toward it, yet still living within the trance of believing I had far more influence, control and power than I ever did. Awakening from the stupor has been an all encompassing movement towards living with more freedom, ease and staying in my own lane just where I belong.
I am plunging fully into the deep end with an earnest commitment to clean up all that I possibly can now. Tomorrow is never guaranteed and I cannot bear the thought of having to lug any of this a moment longer than I need to. I’m noticing and witnessing the ongoing effects and delighted with how I am feeling. I understand that it if the situation is with a person, it requires both of us to be willing. If it’s just me who is chomping at the bit, and the other is not, I cannot rush the process, nor will it to make it happen.
Sometimes the healing cannot be ours while we are earth side, even though that is always my preference. This is a work in progress and forever will be. However, I’m keeping any self imposed ring of fire doused regularly. I’m immensely grateful to Tosha Silver, for first introducing this concept in her teachings to me. www.toshasilver.com
