Music As the sun rises over the horizon it's a way of announcing a new day somehow as a freshness and a newness and in the freshness there's an appreciation of this moment and in the appreciation of this moment to really fully appreciate it there has to be a willingness to forfeit the previous moment and to allow the next moment to arise naturally and in fact if you look even closer you might find that the sun isn't really rising it only seems like that in fact the sun is simply shining,
Always shining the earth moves,
The clouds move but the sun is always shining like that your own beingness,
Your own deep presence the self that's here is always shining you can check for yourself the body changes,
Friends and family changes work changes,
The circumstances change emotions come and go thousands and millions of thoughts coming and going like waves crashing on the shore like clouds passing through the sky and yet who you are your own beingness is always here and always shining always in this present moment sometimes when we wake up in the morning we start to think about what to do what have I got to do,
What are my responsibilities as a human as a mother,
As a father,
As a son,
As a daughter as a worker,
As a partner and it's possible if you can notice that in that thinking about what to do that we are projecting we are projecting a future world and as soon as we project this future world there's a weight there's a heaviness,
There's a pressure and I wonder what would happen if you would actually let that pressure be here to actually let those thoughts come but what would happen if you didn't touch them what would happen if you let them come but you didn't buy them you didn't get involved with them you don't attach to them so that they can come like clouds passing through the sky you don't fight with the clouds you don't judge the clouds and you know deep down that the sun is still shining even when the clouds are there this present moment is alive and fresh and open and beyond concept,
Beyond thought and so thoughts can come and thoughts can go the projection of the future of the day of the week of the year can come and it can go and you can imagine that you can drop deeper drop into yourself down and in below the level of this conscious thinking mind into the depths of the subconscious into your own heart to discover in this moment what is it that you love and I wonder what it would be like if you were to discover so clearly what it is that you love in your heart and you can just open to that and in opening to that so fully you might feel your heart start to fill and feel your whole body fill with this fulfillment of knowing what you want and knowing what you love what would it be like if you had what you wanted if you have what you love right in this moment what if you gave yourself permission even if you make believe that everything you want is here and now what is it like to be completely fulfilled what would it be like to start your day fulfilled at peace at rest in your own heart with a sense that nothing needs to be done nothing has to be done nothing should be done but that you are free you are free to do what you love even if you have to go to work and you don't like your work what if you were just fulfilled and happy what if you brought fulfillment and you brought happiness with you into the workplace or whatever it is that you're doing today how would that change what you do how would that change your story of your life your story of who you are and what's happening to you and it's possible to actually surrender so deeply and at the same time recognize a certain energy in your body to feel the aliveness that is flowing through your veins flowing through your nervous system that there's electricity flowing through your body and it's possible that what you've been calling fear or calling pressure is really just electricity and just sensation and that electricity and that sensation might not be what you thought it was it might not have any meaning in the way that you thought it was and so what if you take meaning off your feelings what if your feelings didn't mean anything and what if your thoughts didn't mean anything and then the possibility is to meet the moment directly without a story,
Without pressure without any sense that anybody else or anything else is doing anything to you that you're here by choice you're alive and you're happy and you're free and you get to infuse whatever you do with happiness rather than looking for happiness from the thing that you do and I don't know what that would feel like for some radical change to happen in an unknown place inside where somehow things can flip right side up so that you are the source of happiness you are the source of fulfillment and you bring fulfillment,
Happiness and love into your day rather than looking for your day to give you fulfillment,
Happiness and love what would that be like?
How would that change things?
You could be like an island of peace an island of love and fulfillment walking out into the sea the sea of madness of the world where everybody is looking for something,
Trying to do something feeling this pressure feeling needy,
Feeling afraid,
Feeling frustrated and you are this island of love and fulfillment fulfilled just in yourself not needing anything in particular but just finishing the search for something else and in being finished in your search you are deeply surrendered in your own heart and you walk through the world vibrating love,
Vibrating fulfillment so that all those around you can benefit from you from your transmission so what would it be like to face your day excited and curious but with a completely quiet mind and an open heart?
What a mystery,
What an opportunity so you can try that that can be your assignment for the day to meet each moment freshly without a story with a quiet mind and an open heart
