Sometimes I think, “I don’t have to do this, right? I’ve been doing this so long, been at regularly, who is going to notice if I skip a day or don’t give my ‘all'”? Then I get into a conversation with myself about giving all, not giving enough, taking the steps that I am able to and forgiving myself if I don’t “do more” (otherwise I feel guilty). Thankfully, this conversation has not been constant recently, as it has been in the past.

The answer to my question is: I notice. I notice when I don’t give my all, and–yes–I do often feel guilty if I don’t do more. All this stuff is on the surface today, and I want to back down. I want to recede. I want to just not do it. So today, I dig deeper to break through, and am thankful for being able to choose.

Guiding Thought

I lift my mind and heart to the Truth of Being, to all that Is, to All I Am. I accept my Self in Truth and offer my Self to All in gratitude for Its Being.

Reflection

All I have to do is do what the Guiding Thought says to do. I don’t have to think. I don’t have to wonder. I don’t have to figure it out. Just…

 lift my mind and heart to the Truth of Being

>visualizing<

I don’t have to know what the Truth of Being is. All I have to do is follow directions. 

I lift my mind and heart to all that Is

>visualizing<

Lifting my mind and heart to all that Is brought up pictures of rabbits, trees, grass…and then the entire cosmos. ALL that IS!

I lift my mind and heart to All I Am.

>visualizing<

Lifting here, feels like a descent. There’s an inner feeling about “All I Am” that touches me unlike the All that IS, and yet, I can’t help but think: they are the same.

I accept my Self in Truth

>visualizing<

Accepting myself is difficult at times. But in Truth? Yes. I can do that. 

I offer my Self to All in gratitude for Its Being.

>visualizing<

In this moment, “ALL” was too much. For now, just for now, I offer my Self to this moment: to my breath, my sight, my emotions, my energy, my body. “All” is just now. Only right here. This. And that’s enough.
