I love you because you are.
I love you the way you are.
I love you for Love itself.
There is no purpose behind it and there is no end to it.
Osho
A dear friend of mine sent me this.
It moves me to no ends.
She moves me to no ends.
In her quest to peel herself from a life time built up of being in control, seeking approval, being strong, protecting herself from hurt, she is now learning to love, be love and receive love.
She is a child-woman, on this new path to reveal herself to life and allow life to reveal itself to her.
She is for me the embodiment of courage, beauty, aliveness and love.
Thank you Supriya for your love and your inspiration.

Like a spider
I heard this from wayne dyer on a podcast the other day, who in turn got this from Lao Tze... (forgive my loose paraphrasing)…. Everything we need to learn about enlightment we can learn from a spider.
The spider weaves his beautiful web and then sits and wait for life to come to it. It doesn’t rush around to look for food. It trust that its mission… the beautiful web will bring to it what it needs. Isnt it a lovely analogy for life.
This came to me as I stood in creating flow in my life. I had a deep intuitive feel that my life lesson this year was to embrace whatever shows up and learn to flow with it. In the past, flow to me has always been about optimal condition and operating, creating magically in the zone.
Since the beginning of the year, I learnt to flow with upsets at home. I learnt to flow with criticisms at work. I learnt to flow with uncertainty. I learnt to create despite the lack of creative inspiration flowing. I flowed with work stress. I flowed with tiredness, feeling overstretched with the different projects I committed to. I flowed with not having things my way when my Chinese New Year holiday was not filled with fun or R&R but instead hospital and vet visits as well as a grumpy and sick husband. Like the spider, I learnt flow may not means movement. Flow can be found in stillness and acceptance despite the part of me that rages on and find action a comforting way to barge forward.
In doing so, I now realised flow is a matter of choice in attitude, in trusting life, in not trying to control everything. Flow is about staying light and limber around whatever shows up. Flow is mostly about what is going on inside.
