As the wind blows, as the tides turn
As the sun rises and falls
Everything is in flow, everything is moving
Allowing, passing by, waxing and waning
It is only when we grip tight to something
A thought, a feeling that this flow seems to be disrupted
But, in hindsight, everything is still in flow
It is just our perspective that has stopped to contemplate
To focus on that thing
Our ability to move back into flow
Is paramount to life and its forever changing nature
To fixate is to stop the flow
To simply allow what is
Releases us from the resistance to the moment
If we were to do one thing today, this would be it
Simply surrender
To release the control we think we need to have over the moment
To allow this moment to flow into the next
Without pre-conceived ideas about how it should be
Simply relaxing into the fullness of life
Simply aligning to what is
Living life’s fullness
Sometimes quiet, sometimes noisy
Sometimes peaceful, sometimes stormy
In each moment
Holding ourselves in what is
Relaxing our whole being in allowance of ourselves in full glory
All of it….the good, the bad, the ugly
Sure…we may stop to contemplate
Simply allowing those thoughts and feelings in to pass by
In our dance of life
Allowing ourselves to experience without resistance
Allowing our thoughts, feelings and emotions to move through
Like the waves of the ocean
They too are forces of nature
Our human experience
To be lived, to be breathed
To be felt as us….in this moment
This is us
I am that I am
