Reality Check (5/27/09)

The denseness of this world is pretty convincing. We have created a 3D world that has everything - beauty, bleakness, drama, joy, lightness. We have it all and sometimes it is easy to get caught up in the physicality of it all. We get a foot caught in a crack in the concrete or a finger tangled in the thick brush and for what can seem like forever, we are unable to move. We feel trapped, stuck and panic may set in. It seems so real and we forget who we are and what we are capable of - pure energetic beings, pure creation. We are organic, with no limits on what we can be, do or have. It is so simple that we try to make it more difficult, more challenging, so we can justify all the hard work we put into freeing ourselves from the trap. There are times when I feel caught that sound can soothe me and other times when silence is necessary to loosen the ties of reality. I welcome it like a beloved returning home from a long trip, as I open my arms, pulling it in close - with complete knowing of our dependence on one another.

It's a balancing act, isn't it? To notice our surroundings, to, as Eckhart Tolle says, feel the sensations of washing our hands, taking a step (which is, of course, the sum of all the steps that came before). To be present but not "caught up," to surrender but not be pulled under. I love your reminder to remember our less tangible selves, "pure energetic beings, pure creation."

Lovely post! Thank you!
