What if nothing is a mistake? What if, instead of beating myself up when my plans don’t pan out, I were to accept whatever happens as a gift? That gift may not have been something on my wish list (or I simply can’t make the connection yet), but how can it serve my highest good? How can it, in turn, serve the highest good of others?
I’m not in charge of the form in which my intentions may manifest. How do I want to feel? How open do I want to be? I have preferences and ideas of what those preferences look like, but in the end, how do I want to experience life?
I want to be grateful for all of it, so I make a practice of expressing gratitude for all of it. When I’m feeling a disconnect, it’s time to ground myself, get quiet, and listen to the Inner Voice—my Higher Power in communion with me. When I’m confused, or can’t hear, or can make no sense of what I seem to be hearing, is it enough for me to let it be? I’d like for my answer to be “Yes”. Let go and simply watch what happens. Enjoy the peace of mind that results from losing attachment to the how and what so that I can see the Holiness in the suchness of what arises.
What if I turn my attention away from the immaturity of if only… to the realm of anticipatory welcome of all that I experience as what if this is my current gift of possibility?
May I always remember to say “Thank You” for it all.
