I Give You My Word

Happy New Year! Here, we are at the threshold, in the blank slate of what will be. The new beginning and the letting go of the old. But this is not just what happens at The beginning of a year.  This is happening all the time. We are always taking in and letting go. We are all on the eternal Hero’s journey, leaving the ordinary and being called to the adventure. This is not a choice; this is life, it’s like a river that refuses to be stagnant. But we do get to decide how gracefully we will navigate these changes. Will we row row row the boat gently down the stream? Will we go with reluctance and rage, shaking our fists to the heavens and demanding an explanation for the changes occurring that were not on our vision board and so, therefore, are a horrible injustice? Or will we suit up and show up to our lives on life’s terms and attempt with a tumble and a twinkle to toss ourselves into the Void with empty hands?Basically, Will we be pushed by pain or pulled by vision? The optimal way is to make no plans. A Course in Miracles tells us, A healed mind does not plan. Place the future in the hands of God. This is the optimal suggestion, but it’s not what we do. We are curious cats and want to know what the year will bring for us. We want to make plans, and we want God to produce those plans, and we want God to do it now… or actually yesterday.Enjoy the talk and find out more at MaureenMuldoon.com and SpeakEasySpiritualCommunity.com This is a public episode.
