Can you simply relax and allow this moment to be? 

Can you let go of evaluation and judgment, and simply accept that this is what is happening?

peace in darkness
“Between Darkness and Light ” by Pure Poison 89

Remember it is only our resistance to the present moment that causes us to feel any pain.

Acceptance creates the inner freedom and inner peace that we are all yearning for.

So take a deep breath… and then another.
Relax.
Be easy on yourself and others.

Instead of wishing things to be different, focus on expressing the love that is within you.

Get out of your head and open your heart.

Namaste

    Very much easier to read your wise words than to act upon them!

    You have written exactly the same message as in my lesson (Course in Miracles) and meditation this morning. Synchronicity is the little push pin on the map of life. Thanks Val.

    Wise words, Val.
    I’m fine on my own, but admit to being a wee bit irritated by others from time to time. It’s a timely post from you as I’m having one of those ‘why can’t you’ moments with a family member at the moment.
    Anyway, I finally was upfront today and said why I can’t be the way he expected me to be. I am who I am.

      Allowing others to be themselves is powerful Vicki. After all, what we all want in our heart of hearts, is to be accepted and loved just the way we are. 💛

    Indeed Val, the breath is the beginning of all there is for without it we are no more. Breathe in deeply to a count of 4, hold for 7, breathe out for 8 … repeat … repeat … Love, David
