Become one with the stillness
Hello Friends…
It’s been quite a while since I have written anything in my blog ,and since I am not working for a month (due to shortages of stock) I find myself in the stillness more than ever before.
definition:
Stillness:
stillness the absent of movement or sound/silent; quiet; hush
I decided to write about stillness, for I believe most of us have no true idea how to be in the stillness; until these unprecedented times we been forced into.
Stillness can be a blessing and curse because of the uncomfortable ways it eludes us into thinking that it is detrimental to our entire being. What we are so comfortable and used to being; we now must decide to make stillness a positive or negative experience.
I must tell you; I have experienced both.
It is only through all these lockdowns, that I have started to ’own’ the positive side of stillness.
You might ask … how??
My reply is that (and I quote from Joseph Campbell)’ you must find a place inside where there’s joy and the joy will burn out the pain.’
So how do I do this ? you may ask.
and my response is…’ Be in the moment.’
Easier said than done . But if you try to be still for a moment, your mind will be going a mile a minute …I promise… but if you continue to be still, you will find that you will feel like an entirely different person.
My stillness is a challenging one for there are no distractions. I’m not running to work selling products ,talking to various different people .I’m just being in the moment.
The most difficult part is; to face your demons and we all have them lurking around just waiting for the opportunity to Dance with us.
I wrote song once many years ago its called ‘Dancing in the Light ‘
It’s just about that; how when we are still’ Darkness dances with us and the Carousel
goes round and round so many times’ (copyright all writes reserved)
So basically what I believe about, all this time that we have now; is a gift ,though I must admit ,it is taking toll on me a great deal at times.
I’m no expert .I’m just trying to share my awakenings to you all; so that we can find a way together to survive and heal all our challenges that has bestowed upon us all at this time.
These are the times that we may never get back again once our Lives become “normal again.
If we can hone our gifts and ‘dream our dreams awake ‘ we will become much more free in our Spirits and fuller in our hearts then we can achieve and survive anything.
This is the time to reach within and grab the opportunity to delve deep and heal our emptiness and become better human beings.
God bless my friends
Stay healthy and happy
be at peace
