W.O.W. Wednesday...When Things Fall Apart

“We think that the point is to pass the test or overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don't really get solved. They come together and they fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again. It's just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy.
~Pema Chodron

Happy Wednesday beautiful hearts.  I often look at these words pasted above my desk.  They serve as a reminder that life is constantly calling us to the heart of each moment.  I returned home from a very powerful healing weekend and I am again reminded that life isn't to be solved, it is to be experienced.  Sometimes the experience calls us to batten down the hatches of our heart and other times life invites us to dance in the very center of our being. How many times do we miss experiences because we think they have to look a certain way?  Most of the time this way needs to be orderly and convenient for us.  But what happens when life doesn't go according to plan.  How can we live well in these moments?  

In the tender corridors of our house, joy is waiting to be awakened.  Grief lives just down the hall, cloaked in memories of days gone by.  Fear rears its head as the tides of our lives change.  Love abides with patient eyes.   All of these emotions share the house of our heart.  It is through acknowledging them that we heal.  Space and containment.  Containment and space.  Day after day we dedicate our awakening to the dualistic nature of living.  

May you be inspired today to grow the spacious nature of your hearts awareness.

May You Sweetly Seek:)
In Gratitude,
