Do you ever feel like your mind is a Circus?
Sometimes, it feels as though my mind has become a circus. Random tunes occasionally play in my head all day long, as though the Universe wants to get a message to me with fun lyrics. "Then I saw her face! Now I'm a Believer! Not a trace! Of doubt in my mind!" "Whisper words of wisdom -- Let It Be...." "I'm pickin' up good vibrations. She's givin' me excitations. Good ... bop em bop...mmmm... good vibrations..."
Rather than ignoring the tunes, I find that when I stop and listen, I can meditate on the meaning behind the lyrics. Sometimes it is just nonsense. (That is why I call it "circus mind.") Other times, the lyrics speak to something specific I am going through at the moment and offer me wisdom I had been pointedly avoiding.
Do you ever do that? Do you ignore that still small voice that encourages you to let go of an old resentment that continually pops up to bug you or that asks you to look at some deep-seated anger?
We all do it, no doubt about it. So this is our challenge, mine and yours: Start listening. Breathe. Take steps in the direction of your dreams. We are all on this path together.
Life often seems like a circus. When things are crazy, be sure to make time for yourself. Meditate. Pray. Go within and love yourself.
Very quick, very potent message. Thank you.
The obvious thing I suggest, is that a person needs to be as much as possible aware of their personal direction and what they want in life, and to do that or have that in a good way.
Being aware of what kind of emotion or suggestion is coming into our consciousness and even maybe why or from where it is coming, and then, deciding what the best thing to do about it, is truly central to having a great life.
Of course, we belong to the universe, it does not belong to us, and it is very big with a vast and super incredible amount of resourceful benefits we can take advantage of, and as well, we know ourselves, or it is healthy to be aware of ourselves and our weaknesses and strengths, and what we want or where we want to get to.
So one part of the mind, or consciousness might be going in one direction, while another part is aware that there are options, and correct and incorrect ones. Change is constant so why not improve instead of stagnate ?
Long term and short term decisions. Dream the dream of the perfect life you would love to live, and stick to that dream, and let the universe help you, and listen to the truth when it pops up in your mind, and avoid the incorrect information.
Learn. Live.
Lori,
What you spoke about love is so true. It is a force and a beautiful "state of being." This post is your best yet, truly. (It is a copied keeper.)
The universe seems to be a fabric of connected energy. A fractal of an atom is a universe. It is all a cosmic tapestry that you mentioned.
Thank you, Lori, thank you.
