One of the challenges of being a spirit living in a human body on planet Earth
(that in times of irritation I refer to as planet P); lies in the tenet that earthly perfection exists in it’s asymmetry and imperfection. One only has to closely observe nature to verify this statement
Now, for those of us who are very “sensitive’ and or carry a strong remembrance and knowing of who we are as a spirit; our earthly experience can be fraught with heartache and disappointment until we accept this tenet.
My challenge lies in that often I imagine things occurring seamlessly, however, the reality of how life unfolds is replete with bumps and rolls. This creates a perfect opportunity for the Eeyore mind chatter flooding in -“things never turn out as I envisioned them”. This blah, blah, blah… ignites the ensuing avalanche of feeling compromised and disappointment. What a limiting loop!
Expect the unexpected.
Sort of like Murphy law- If anything can go wrong, it will.
When taken at face value without cynicism Murphy’s law is sensibly true.
(Check out http://www.murphys-laws.com/ for the laws and its many hilarious corollaries.)
So, if one is not stuck in a needing perfection, then the unexpected brings with it, additional depth, wisdom and gifts to the unfolding experience.
Then I thought, where did that whole invalidating tape start.
Yes, of course the template became neurologically hard wired during my in utero and birth experiences. However, if I want to be painfully honest, this all really started when I was a spirit trying to figure out which body I was going to choose for this incarnation and what did I want to learn and accomplish during my time on Earth this go around.
I strongly suspect that as a spirit, one of the skill sets I was choosing to refine within my human resume, was how to turn lemons into lemonade.
Or another way of putting it, to cultivate and refine creativity and adaptability within the confines of my human experience
Over the past weekend, I had to remind myself of all of this, as my new website www.LivingIntuitive.com got launched and I found myself going into “why does everything I embark on not turn out like I imagined… why do I always have to compromise my ideal vision and end of feeling disappointed?”
For example, I did not envision the extra 3+ hours it took to re edit the site once it was live! I thought once it was live I was done and on my merry way.
However, how could I have imagined, that the gift of going through the site for the final live edit was the gift of validation? I didn’t expect the different vibration of editing a live site. The scouring for errors and dead links, actually created for me the opportunity to really appreciate what worked well on the site. I came to realize how proud I was of what I have co-created along with my Virtual Assistant Laura Jo and Web Mistress Mary Geitner.
All of that being shared, I invite you to check out the new site for yourselves.
Within Living Intuitive you will discover the new updates to Birth Intuitive.
