Sometimes, it can all be said in a song…
In this moment I find courage
Face my fears and I let go
In this moment I let go
And jump into the well
There will be moments there will be times
Life will seem crazy like life is on fire
I can go running I can go hide
Or I can choose power and dance in the fire
Oh I’ll take what I’m given
I’ll whirl and I’ll twirl and make it all mine
Oh, I’ll never be shaken
As long as I face life And dance in the fire
Be here now right in this moment
This is where I Am
Be her now willing and open
Boundless and free I Am
Moments
Lord, you give me this moment
And I see as I believe
I have but this golden moment
From it my life I have weaved
And if that life is not
the way I have dreamed
Then, I must see it differently
For my days reflect the ways
I have been thinking
Creations ancient forms of a frightened me
My attachment to my favored forms of thinking
Keeps me locked away
from my Divinity
And so I throw away convention
And the fear that’s held on
I let the Spirit flow through me
Be still within these endless
golden moments
And listen for the Holy Voice of God
I will trust the light and
Wisdom of these moments
And my Love will be
an instrument of God
Unlimited by space and time
I Am the Light and
I shall always shine
For me for you

Reflect back on your days as a child and what the flow of the days were like. Remember how time floated. Think of some pleasant experiences and notice what time did there. Notice some challenging experiences and how time did her dance. How is it possible that this rigid framework can float like that? Ponder this and see what arises…
Tonight, set an intention to remember your dreams when you awake. Set a pencil and paper or a recorder nearby and force your self to make some notes. Perhaps this will usher you into a dream practice that will lift you into active lucid dreaming.
Take a Nature power walk. Feel the Earth and call upon the existing connection. Use the stones, the plants, the air, the water to assist you in connecting deeply to your physical self.
For an hour choose to keep the higher perspective on everything that arises. Bless it and give gratitude for its arrival. Notice how this feels…continue and begin to see how your reaction to life’s moments can ease into a responsive action that let’s you walk with how things show up…
