The "R" Factor

Hola Gentle Spirits,

Wow! Taking total responsibility for my world, when it is swirling around me with all of its color and activity is ,well, not fair--initially. In meditating on this, I find that I am indeed responsible for my own perceptions, responses and upset-ness with life on life's terms. My choice--my power--is in developing a peaceful, embracing attitude with which to respond lovingly to the "drama soup" thay often swirls around us. I can choose to feed into it, to throw small rocks of blame, or I can muster up a smile, shoot a thought of gratitude (for other peaceful moments) to the Universe, and not add my own human "seasoning" to that drama soup. I can develop an alternate perspective that this "soup" is just the "river of life" I manifested, or that I stepped into, and I can choose to just let it flow.I truly believe that people do the best they can with what they have, and I know that I have so much more than that that supports drama! I am more. I struggle at times to get to that "place" where I can nonjudgmentally examing the "boo boos" and not want to blame the one who "inflicted" it. Even that language perpetuates an other focus and a limitation. I am carrying wounds that I need to tend to, ans also, to lovingly allow others their wounds and healing. "R" for responsibility is very freeing. So much less in the big bag I sometimes carry with me. Manifesting responsibility means that I own mine, and let go of the need to exact explanation, change, or hold on to the drama-energy that may be around me. I need to remain "in the flow" and allow Spirit to guide, nurture and direct my thoughts and actions. So much easier than participating in the "ego wounds" of the drama soup.
