Truly letting Go

Abandoning yourself to the stream of life - A radical trust-fall into the hand as of the Universe. The Mighty Rhythm that underly all. You know the song right? “He’s got the whole world in His Hands. He’s got the whole world in His Hands.” Cute jingle right? I can hear you scoff! “Yeah Scott, that’s cute for a child. But life ain’t like that. It’s cold, rough and tough; mostly tragic. That childlike faith doesn’t apply to ME.” Okay. May I ask, why not? Why can’t it be simple? Why can’t it be found in truly letting go? Why must we make it complex? Why cant we let it come and let it go? Take a moment. Stop reading. Ask “why”.

If you’re honest with yourself you may have answered “I don’t know”. GOOD! That is the first realization upon which every other wall of your spiritual structure will be built. That’s why God/Life/Universe etc Begs us to stop F**%^&$# resisting and LET GO. A word from Mr Joseph Campbell: 

“We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned in order to receive the Life that is waiting for us.”

 


This - among a few others - is my life quote! I encourage you to find a life quote to write on the tablet of your heart. It keeps me grounded. It gives me a baseline to drift upon. I want you to take look at your life right now. Step back and look at the blessings. Can you see it? Good. Me too. That very life that you’re standing on is PROOF that God is going before you; preparing your way. Your Spirit begs you to step into that. “Let your soul and Spirit fly into the mystic” says Van Morrison! Conceiving to your innermost self that you simply “don’t know shit” is the catalyst to truly letting go. Letting go of the twisted parts of your character that cause you harm, letting go of self-condemnation, setting fire to all your rigid plans and designs. Find your fucking breath. Stop. Breath. Watch it and feel its effortless intelligent purpose. That my friends is what we want to trust-fall into. All the intelligence to live a life of freedom and joy is there. It is taking care of you every moment. We need to step back and witness it. We must become smitten by its love for us. Then finally we must let go and let its love do its thing! Finally, inescapably to belief will come that the Spirit of God moves in mysterious ways! Our job is to learn how His Spirit moves and grooves within our life and fall into that Spirit! Yahuurd?

From Darkness to Light ~ Mike F.

“But if you will seek God earnestly, and plead with the almighty, if you're pure and upright, even now he will rouse himself on your behalf and restore you to your prosperous state. Your beginnings will seem humble, so prosperous your future will be”. ~ Book of Job From Darkness to Light....~ At a very young age I felt a disconnect spiritually. A lot of times I felt less then or that I didn't quite fit in. I would use sports to compensate or lose myself In collecting baseball cards. I started experimenting with weed and liquor in middle school. When I was a freshman in high school my step father passed away. That crushed me. The disconnect I felt as a child got worse and there was a void inside me that I could not fill. The pain led me to use drugs and alcohol on a regular basis. I was addicted by 16 years old; selling to support my habit. During this time I put myself in some horrible situations. I was robbed at gun point with a shotgun put to my head; not something

 The Tides of Life  tide /tīd/ Learn to pronounce noun noun: tide; plural noun: tides the alternate rising and falling of the sea, usually twice in each lunar day at a particular place, due to the attraction of the moon and sun. The tides of Life flow endlessly for better or worse - to rise and fall - to live to die. The current hurls the tide. It is the currents function to move, to throw, to float, to create and the tide to lift the sea. Mother Nature has her function and it is always fulfilled. The Sea, void of tide and current is an abyss of stillness and would be a horizon of glass. It sometimes looks that way! That’s when we dive in and lift the weight of gravity off our shoulders! Hopefully swim with some sea turtles. How cool that we oppose a universal law - Gravity - in the ocean!? Gravity doesn’t go anywhere. It still has its hold on the Universe. It just simply doesn’t control us to the degree it does on land! Suhhh hahhh dude. Okay, back on script. Ocean void of tide; remem

How to step back and gain perspective

1. YOU HAVE TO STEP BACK I must remember that I cannot see my ears. If I can digest this fact then I can agree I don’t always see things as they are. Let “Collision” be your guide. If you face collision with other people, circumstances, feelings, relationship etc (which all points to internal conflict) then I must first step back and quiet the conflict. I will never find solution with a disturbed mind. 2. HAVE SOMEONE WHO CAN SEE YOUR EARS Seeking council with others is a practice as old as time can reach. If you’re doing life by yourself I feel bad for you. An open book policy with one other man/woman in your life will yield countless benefits. I must be able to lay myself out; insecurities and all before another human in order to gain proper perspective. Absolute vulnerability is a treasure chest that continues to give. It never hold back. 3. LOOK IN THE MIRROR Have to courage to know you are literally the creator of your life. You are 100% responsible for your collision. You are als
