7. Day 5: Honesty Is Instantly Grounding
This blog is calling my bluff. Or rather my heart is. I was truly called to begin this daily blogging practice of extending love to my epic fears and writing about my experience. I have, obviously, been practicing a great deal of honesty all along these past months by virtue of the fact if you write every day it is hard to avoid honesty. But I still fear honesty in certain situations. Honesty is a very simple way to “BE HERE NOW”. We can get very fancy and write blogs and books about Being Here Now but honesty does it for...

My daughter asked me recently what my blog was about. I faltered a bit because I thought she was reading it, therefore already knew. There I was caught in the headlights of a moment that called for honesty because I instantly was feeling less-than (no fault of my daughter who really only knows how to be honest). I was a bit annoyed that it wasn’t obvious to her. Because of my commitment to honesty I had to ask myself, firstly, why was I annoyed with her not knowing? Why did it matter to me? Did her not knowing what my blog was about...

Of course my pension for people pleasing will not disappear overnight, nor will my desire to practice honesty on all levels appear magically. I found these quotes at the perfect time in this month of extending love to the fear of honesty. This first one seems to be a direct path to honesty with regard to people pleasing. Rather than people pleasing, heart pleasing is the way out of pain and fear. What can I do to let those around me sense their innocence, purity and beauty? Pleasing someone in order that they not be un-happy is not the...

Holy Spirit, I step with some trepidation into the light with honesty. For some reason my looking for and at honesty in myself has highlighted my great skill in people pleasing, rather than honesty. Could you clarify honesty and this second cousin of pleasing others. It feels false, or at least, not the whole story. HS: Precious One, There is nothing wrong with pleasing yourself or another. It is often great joy to give that very thing another is desiring. Where pleasing disconnects is when pleasing becomes the goal and end. Allow the...

Whoa! As I keep walking this path of a twelvemonth of self love, the fear of honesty just appeared on my radar. I feel like a deer caught in the headlights of an oncoming coal truck. This must be what I most need to extend love to next because my heart clenched and I thought “NOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo………..” and then I thought “But I AM honest, aren’t I??!” Holy heck, my heart is racing and I already feel guilty. Guilty of what?? Being dis-honest?? I am honest to a fault in my outer life. I...

In this month I have spent with tiredness (extending love, honesty, understanding, awareness and trust etc) I can honestly say “What was I afraid of again??” I now know, down to my [still occasionally weary] toes that tiredness is but my reminder to pause, breathe and go within. Immediately if not sooner. I can see that tiredness covers a multitude of sins of love’s omission. When I think about, worry about, brag or complain about tiredness, I am missing its precious gift. Only when I stop and really notice, welcome,...

I was looking through an old journal and came across this yummy quote from A Course In Miracles which is a wonderful way to describe seeing myself as I really am, not just as one wearing the tiredness cloak of my creation. “237. Now would I be as God created me. Today I will accept the truth about myself. I will arise in glory, and allow the light in me to shine upon the world throughout the day. I bring the world the tidings of salvation which I hear as God my Father speaks to me. And I behold the world that Christ would have me...

My list continues to make me aware of my self, and isn’t this the beginning of self love? Indeed, it is the beginning of awareness of love of all kinds. Oh wait. Isn’t all love a form of self love? This is the key to “love thy neighbor as thyself” isn’t it? All loving feeds, awakens, reminds you that you ARE love. That I am love. That we are all love. We just, each with our own reasons, keep forgetting. I suppose that we are all trying to both remind ourselves and one another to WAKE UP to that beautiful,...

Yesterday I shared my list of 100 Reasons Why What I Want Can Come To Me Easily, Fast & Harmoniously. A list of 100 anything is impressive. Mainly when we sit down to “make a list” our ego mind starts winding and wants to tell you this is too hard, there doesn’t need to be too many reasons (3 is enough), “STOP NOW! I’m bored”. When you persevere with a list of 100, inevitably Holy Spirit and your heart gets a look in. The day I wrote my list I wrote the first 25 easily and without effort, the next...
