Who am I under pressure?

Day 62: Diamonds

Who am I under pressure?

This past season has really shown me many things. It is easy to do your daily work and it is easy to not do your daily work. I have learned that my living love on a daily basis is one of the greatest gifts I have ever been given. I have learned that regardless of what others do to me, or say about me it is what I say to myself that matters. I have learned that holding my intention in a trying situation is a great gift and keeps me in balance with my highest self. I have learned that rest is key when a stressful situation arises. I have learned that it is the little things we do each day that creates the life we want to live. I have learned that when I do my daily work I am indeed the sparkling expression of love that is more brilliant than a diamond.

During the past season of my life experiencing being vandalized at Amor Spiritual Center was transformative. It allowed me to see where I was in my personal work. It allowed me to live in my highest consciousness and more through it with ease. It allowed me the opportunity to see how much this daily work over the last three seasons has really transformed who I am. It reminded me that self care when under pressure is key. It reminded me that living under pressure requires that I live in a state of fight or flight and that I would best serve myself and others to release that as quickly as possible.

Over the past few days finding my center and moving forward in self love has been such a gift. What I realize today is that finding my center came much easier this time than in the past. Why? It is living proof that this daily work makes a difference. I talk with clients and friends about this often. We want to do the work once and get the benefits of the accumulative effect. Setting up a daily practice is really about building the life you want one block at a time. It allows you to root and ground yourself in such a way that you are able to not only weather the storm. You begin to welcome them as living proof that you are evolving. Saying that doesn't mean that gee I hope someone will throw a rock through our window again. What it means is that when life shows up I have some options. I can take it personally and suffer. I can also see that had a tree fallen through the window I would most likely not be angry at the tree. Having that consciousness allows me to live in that consciousness with the individuals that did in fact throw the rock into the window. It allows me to see suffering in their lives and hold them in love. It is in moments like these that we see the brilliance of the investment of loving ourselves most brilliantly.

Thank you,

I love you,
