A Cherokee Legend

A Cherokee Legend

His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him
alone. He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove
the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He
cannot cry out for help to anyone.

Once he survives the night, he is a MAN.

He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must
come into manhood on his own.

The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild
beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some human might do
him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat
stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he
could become a man!

Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his
blindfold.

It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.
He had been at watch the entire night, protecting his son from harm.

We, too, are never alone.

trusting, and not reacting to a crisis

Had two "near crisis': one found out someone had charged over 5000$ on my credit card and two this morning i went to pull up this power point presentation i had spent hours working on and the majority of it was not saved. Both times I let go with in minutes.. well actually it was an hour with the credit card thing, and i breathed, and i trusted, and i let go, and in both situations there was a good outcome. Bank of America (God love them) credited us with the bad charges) and I found the file hidden off in my computer (and i am computer illiterate.) It is all about trusting. (And praising and celebrating) and being connected inward and upward. Wow life is good!

It all is as it is suppose to be

So I have been journaling a lot lately as you read in the last blog. Today I just sat at the computer with a blank mind, and trust me that is a good thing from time to time.

And then an email came in with a link to another blog, and I read it and went wow, that is exactly what I needed for today.

Especially about intending our future, which implies we want something different than what we have. And as long as we want something different from what we have.
We will always be in a state of want.

So today: for me it is all about it being exactly as it is suppose to be, and being fully and completely in the present moment.

PS that email had to come from somewhere. And that email came from someone who understands the power of collective energy. Sharing and being connected to others is what changes the energy of the world. Thank you to her. And may you as the reader share something of yourself with someone else today too.
