dancing from my soul

Something is opening…dancing from my soul. Can you feel it,  too?

Quiet expectation. That is how I describe that feeling. My life is opening. I can feel the rhythm of my soul feet moving.  Have you ever felt that? Or, maybe you yearn for a melody to pick you up and twirl you around. Perhaps you sense that something is just beyond the horizon. It’s coming. Or maybe you are heading toward it. No matter the movement, this change is coming nearer and nearer. You just cannot gain clarity about it!

So, I have had changes in the last couple of months. But, they have not been THE change that dances in the margins of my consciousness. I have this feeling of dis-ease. An itch just below the surface of my being that I just cannot reach to scratch. I just cannot figure out if this illusive feeling is good or bad. Maybe that is it. I need to be nonattached enough to realize that it is neither. 

Nonattached. What if we acknowledged that whatever is just beyond the horizon is another opportunity to live within the pockets of possibility without any expectations? Because, really, isn’t that what life is? When we are aware, we awaken to life’s offerings. With that knowing, we can not only see the pockets of possibility, we can actively incorporate them into our path. Some may say those pockets are luck-filled; I think they are filled with the magic of discovery. 

So what do you do in those pockets of possibility? Well, begin with getting quiet, embracing peace, being open to whatever percolates from the pocket. Don’t get caught in the emotions that are triggered. We can call these feelings good  call them bad — but defining them only brings your further into their grasp. While we want to experience the emotion, we most definitely do not want to get trapped by it!

These last few months — if we are honest, all of our life — calls us to experience life without become attached to it. What is attachment? The best way that I can describe it, is to be objective. Don’t cling to what you find; don’t shove it away. Be in each moment in order to experience the moment knowing if you hold too tightly or shove too hard, you lose the magic in the moment. 

Non-attachment invites us into a gentle conversation with the moment. Through this dialogue we hear the message. Learn from the message. Understand the message. Lastly, and perhaps the most difficult act, is to move on to the next moment. Because each moment has a message for us. If we cling to one (or push it away), we miss the potential message in the next and the next and the next.

As I write this I am not sure that any of this makes any sense. But, what I do know is that something is coming. That something is always coming. As we move on with purpose, taking each step on this path of who we are, we know that whatever we find brings us closer to an understanding of, well, who we are. Whatever we find is opportunity to resonate with our true self.  We connect to that spark as it bursts forth from our center and shines light on the path from here to there.
