July 1, 2018: Accepting What Is

With this podcast reading I felt compelled to explore the concept of "accepting what is". Too often we spend exhausting amounts of time and energy resisting what is, saying things like "I don't want this", "I'd rather be someplace else", "I don't like what's happening to me right now". All the while forgetting that what we resist, persists, thus creating a catch 22. Along with receiving insights about "acceptance" and the intriguing imagery involving a flashlight, we are reminded that in order to move forward we need to accept and know where we are right now so as to determine our next step, and then our next step, and then the next ones after that. I created this digital collage art piece to represent the essence of this reading. Blessings to you on your journey. joyfully, Maureen The Mandala Lady
