Allow















The more I let go and allow, the more things just seem to work themselves out. Sky does his thing... and sometimes I laugh and hug him, and other times, I feel totally perplexed and unsure how to proceed. I can see Life working through us....and that how whatever happens is not personal. I am becoming more a witness to this play and it is more beautiful and fulfilling than clinging to the assigned character called "me."

I thought I'd be bored! Totally the opposite.

And now I've got to get the cutie pie off to swim lessons. To watch the waves and the light...

those little ones are anything but boring. and i think if we are watchful they really do teach living in the moment and being present. who's more in the present than a toddler?

Oh, my - didn't mean I thought I'd be bored by a toddler! What I meant was that I had thought I'd be bored by allowing life to be. Just as it is.

Instead, when I can drop into the witness state, I find myself more entertained and fulfilled than I've ever felt trying to control life (which doesn't work I've noticed).

Toddlers boring?! Oh no...
