Awakening to the Moment

As we go through life we are often not aware of how very much we are asleep. Our eyes may be open, and we may be going through a whole host of different daily activities requiring motion, but the truth of the matter is, we are asleep.  That sleep began a very long time ago.  A time when we entered the world with a "forgetting" of who we really are.
But that "forgetting" was all a part of the plan, for without it, we would not have been able to create our own fantastic journey.  Life is after all, a journey, is it not?  It is in the moments along the way that we find out who we really are, not in the arrival, but within the individual moments that lead us moving forward. This is where we find our strength, where we grow, where we expand our consciousness. It is how we begin to awaken from our slumber. 
Some of us take longer then others but that too is all a part of the plan. Each soul at a different point in their evolution, providing spectacular contrast for the beautiful souls they encounter along the way.
The incredible challenges we encounter within our journey are all there to assist in our growth. 
As we stay present in the moment during these difficult times, we allow for solutions to unfold, trusting that there is always a way.  Aligning with your intuitive knowing through the present moment keeps you in a place of open hearted awareness. Without resistance you allow the flow of life to move through you and you in turn are going with the flow!

  1. This is a beautiful essay on 'the way it is.' I so relate to your observation that most of life, for many of us, is like a 'sleep' and we are in various stages of waking... Also, often in dreams we find valuable clues to what comes next, and where our 'resistance' may be, so that we can enjoy the wonderful flow that you speak about here. Love you Laura, you have a beautiful mind... Peace,
    Susan
