Feelings.
If we truly get present,
The feeling,
The sensation will pass,
Dissolve,
Like a snowflake hitting your hand,
Like a wave in the ocean.
The feelings come and go,
In and out.
We must have the courage to sit with them,
Be with them,
Allow them,
Not resist them.
Resistance only creates more pain.
Ride the waves of feelings,
Like a seagull floating atop the ocean,
Bobbing up and down,
Going with the flow.
Allowing the feeling to come and allowing the feeling to go.
No resistance,
No attachment,
Freely,
Graciously.
This is what we must do.
Connect with that vessel of feelings and surrender to it.
Imagine yourself floating on your back in the warm,
Vast ocean.
Whatever allows you to feel and to free yourself from them.
I know it may seem difficult.
I know it may feel difficult.
Focus on how you will feel after riding the wave.
Light.
Free.
Flexible.
Joyful.
Proud.
Each wave of pain,
Emotion,
That we surf successfully,
Is another opportunity of letting go.
Lightening the load of the heavy density of the past.
Friend,
Spread your wings and fly.
You will be okay.
May you be safe.
May you be happy.
May you be healthy.
May you live with ease.
And may you ride the waves of feelings and be okay.
Namaste.
