For so long, you relied on your head. Now it's time to make the shift-- the great leap into your heart.

Are you beginning to see how your head gets in the way? How it creates so much noise? The chatter, the limited vision, the fear? 

Are you beginning to see how what you've relied on--your intellect, your assessments, and sometimes your logic---has complicated your life?

It isn't the head that sees clearly, nor does the head always see with love. Often, it sees with eyes of fear. The heart sees clearly. It balances the mind and emotions. It takes what's real and processes it into truth, then into action. It takes into account all that needs to be done, then draws a map, an itinerary, for how to accomplish that. 

Yes, you say, but my head does that too. And then I don't need to feel ...

Your heart can do it better because it maps the way in love.

Learn to listen to your inner voice. Listen to your heart. It's your connection to God, to people, to the universe, and to yourself.

Melody Beattie

So the goal than is to learn to love everyone around us uncondititonally and drop the judgements.  Forgive. let go, start  again fresh everyday. Sounds hard? No.  Living stuck in crap is hard.  Holding on is hard.

I have business work to do.  That is where all of my energy and focus is going to be  when my attention is not on my kids. I will probably keep my mind on spiritual lessons as well. I really want to do better with this life.

This is it. THis is what life is. Might as well wallow in the ISness of it and be grateful for all that is going well while I reach for my next dream. 

Receiving the Grace of God's love has nothing whatsoever to do with the conditions of our life. It has everything to do with the condition of our heart. ~Mary Manin Morrissey
