Life on Life's Terms from addiction to recovery
Fear of anything makes me want what I don’t have and feel like everything will be ok if I just get whatever it is that I think I need. When I am connected to the Power in the Universe I am at peace and ease, realizing that all I need is around me. In times of the “I wants” I am blocked from the peaceful solution that lies within and I am looking for external means to develop a sense of security. When I am open to whatever the Universe brings my way and can respond with circumstances instead of reacting from a place of fear and insecurity I can see every moment for the gift that it is. I am not assigning my own meaning and judgment to every circumstance but rather just experiencing the full range of life. This is not a place I have been able to visit often or arrive at to stay for any significant period of time yet I know it exists and when I am there I feel oh so wonderful. It is these experiences that allow me to know that there is a state of true peace and what blocks me from it is my own internal perceptions and the meanings I assign to circumstances.
Today I will strive to just be with the flow of circumstances and when I find myself reacting I will make the effort to pause, relax, and allow the flow to continue.
