We may be unsure of giving up our control dramas to get sorted and be real with ourselves. We may be unsure of giving up our insecurities to get okay with being who we are and accepting our ability to be clear. We may be unsure of giving up our demands to have a playful attitude and make living much easier than not.
We may be unclear about why it’s vital we give up the envy (and its polar opposite – overly responsible). We may be unclear about why it’s critical we give up criticism (and its polar opposite – overly people pleasing). We may be unclear about why it’s favourable to give up favouritism (and its polar opposite – overly sensitive).
We may rely on having an off-centre attitude to get ourselves motivated in a world that depends on us having dependencies. We may rely on having bias to get ourselves noticed in a world that challenges neutrality. We may rely on having self-harming behaviours to get ourselves accepted in a world that consumes for a living.
We may change. We may adapt. We may transform.
We may relish change. We may adapt well. We may transform peacefully.
We may relish who we are (without the shield of stupidity). We may be like cosmic chameleons (and fit in without distorting our truth). We may turn away from all argument (with a certainty that it can not end as well as laughing at it all).
May be we are ready to drop the gob and have a free facelift. May be we are ready to drop the point and have a free wake up. May be we are ready to drop the hurt and have a free healing.
May be now is one moment that goes on and we just adjust to the drama or yogi ourselves out of it. May be now is one centre that strengthens itself the more we accept now as worthy of attention. May be now is one icon asking to be held like its own source of wealth.
Giving up the precious for presence may be the backdoor to feeling rich and not having to cling on to false illusion for its promises. Giving up the price for presence may be the frontdoor to feeling in alignment with cosmic timing. Giving up the purpose of pride may be the sidedoor to feeling satisfied as oneself.
The pain of giving up is part of the illusion – it does not really kill us or make evil things happen. The strain of holding on is part of the confusion – it does not really matter if we drop it and start again. The intensity of claiming possession is part of the con – it does not really help to believe in ownership rather than partnership.
The reality of giving up is manageable when we focus on what we’ll be having more space in our lives for. The credibility of giving up is enough to earn the respect lost from dropping the attitude of ‘approval motivates’. The sensibility of giving up is recognised when we play ourselves a movie of what happens when we don’t.
Being clear is a gift – to ourselves and those around us and our environment. Being honest is a gift – to our bodies and our whole arena of experience. Being strong in ourselves is a gift – to our well within and our ability to do our best for whomever, whenever for whatever.
Being open is a blessing that blisses us out of deceit. Being balanced is a blessing that clowns us out of contempt. Being centred is a blessing that consumes us out of consumption.
Being true is a skill that arts us into flamboyance. Being colourful is an entertainment that arts us into nature. Being black and white is a value that arts us into practical resourcing.
Having now as an anchor lets us drop the notion of rehearse for what may never come. Having oneself as a teacher lets us drop the idea of educating for the sake of acquiring knowledge. Having one centre lets us drop the illusion of praying to make things better when smiling into it all is enough.
