Since the morning of the 19th I have been challenged once again by what I like to call “the trap of boredom”. This is a human affliction, as Spirit is never bored. Spirit knows only the moment and so it does not compare events of the past with events of the present or the future. Boredom only exists when one is not in the moment.

So there it is. My current struggle is with being in the present moment. When I find it, I am happy; content. When I leave it I feel lacking, as if I need to be doing something different.

Herein has been my struggle for the past couple of days. I have been seeking to create something new and different from what I have. I feel a need to do this. I have tons more time on my hands than I am use to, even at work this has been my downfall. Yet really, honestly, NOTHING has changed except my perspective. I suspect this change is linked to the current chakra adjustments.

In this boredom I often try to create something new to fill my time. It was made very clear to me in the last message I received from the Council that this next stage requires nothing of me – no action, no creation, no effort. My only task is to be. I thought little of this when I received the message but now I understand.

I am actually wondering if Mercury has gone retrograde without me knowing because what I try to create is almost instantly crushed. My job now is to be still. To let others come to me. To accept with grace my purpose of helping others. While I do this, I am also helped.

Focus on Blessings

It could be worse. I could be fighting with myself or in a major depression and dealing with health issues or relationship issues. In all actuality, everything is good. Everything is just fine.

The key here is to focus on one’s blessings, to not fixate on what one doesn’t have or on material possessions. This is what the Ego latches onto.

Today so far has been wonderful. It is the anniversary of when I met my husband. 8 years ago today he came up to me and changed my life forever. When I saw him, specifically his eyes, I thought, “He is my angel”.

Today he forgot it was our anniversary as it is not the typically celebrated marriage anniversary. But for both of us it is our true anniversary. I set up the delivery of a present for him to receive at work. He called me to thank me. He was in complete shock. We will be having lunch with two of our kids this afternoon to celebrate.

Celebrate the relationships in your life every day. Celebrate the joy of living in each breath you take. Give of yourself and you will receive abundance.
