I am having a busy day working in Spokane after working in
Utah and Idaho. It is in moments such as these that I reflect with gratitude on
my friends and clients with whom I have walked along this pathway to
consciousness.
I am in Spokane for a family reunion after being in Idaho. The
drive northwards and then west through the beautiful scenery of Idaho, Montana,
and Washington took my breath away. I feel the beat of my heart in the
mountains, valleys, and rivers of the west. I love the wide spaces, the fresh
air, and the energy that engenders expansion that is this beautiful country.
In my work I travel a lot and yet I often get startled at
the raw beauty that is America. What a wonderful free spirited place is this
country. I look with wonder at the amazing gift it has been to be born into the
place of freedom, prosperity, wealth, and abundance. Despite the hardships that
all of us have experienced since the downturn of 2008, this is still the most
amazing country to live in. Even
with the problems I marvel at this country. Regardless of the ups and the
downs, we cut our way into the world’s view. Everyone sees the challenges that
this country faces. It is our freedoms that make us unique and special. We are
the battleground and the proving ground to allow everyone to have a voice. That
makes us unpopular and it makes us have to take a look at what we believe to be
true. That makes us not always look the best but it also is very real.
Everyone’s perspective is valuable from the angle of his or her experiences and
choices.
How do we find balance and peace in a world where everyone
is potentially correct? How do you choose a path when there are so many
perspectives? That is what we will constantly grapple with. If we cannot find a
way then no one can find a way. It is as if this country was created to make a
pathway through the jungle of beliefs and somehow find a way to make sense of
it and to align everyone into one voice of clarity.
Clearly, we have a ways to go. Clearly, we are in a place
where the many voices are being raised in a simultaneous call for change. Where
we go from here is hopefully based on patient listening, calm understanding,
clear sorting of the essential messages that serve all, and the momentum of
action taken to create change. That is my prayer and hope for all of us. So I
attempt to focus on the divine beauty and energetic hope that is what makes
America great.
I look at this beautiful country and have to see that in
many ways we are doing something correct. It is not an individual person that
makes the difference as much as it is a person who can inspire others to work
and come together to make a difference that allows for a growth that leaves
something better for the next generation.
I know that we cannot do it alone. I know that we all need each other to
open to the next level of awareness. I know that together there is something
that can be created that will be amazing. We may not even know what that
creation will look like. We may have to make a thousand adjustments to find the
right way or doorway that will give us the opening that will work. That is
okay. But to begin there has to be willingness. The more that are willing the
more things can change and come together. We have to be willing to look bad,
make a mess, and do it wrong. We have to try on different perspectives in order
to find out what will work in this time and place. We have to be open to
options and possibilities that we may not have thought of. That is why we need
everyone’s help.
Without my clients gifting me with the incredible twists and
turns that is their life, I would never know some patterns. Without my friend’s
realness, I might never understand the power and impact of friendship. Without
the love of my heart I may never know true joy and bliss. Without the touch of
so many souls I might never know who I really could become.
