Day 11 ~

More on deserving. In my experience, an open mind to the unknown possibilities of goodness, and a belief it happens for everyone, anywhere is the most powerful energy we carry within ourselves. Your experience with life may tell you otherwise and I understand that.

A very real natural law in life, that can't be beat, shows us that we must "do something good" to deserve more. And don't expect it happens like one reward for every one good deed. But what you "put out" (even in thought) does return in one fashion or another. We don't have to be perfect of course, just doin' our best. All I'm saying is we can't expect we deserve better.

Today, there's a pretty endless number of things we can do to improve our receptivity to the goodness available to all. Meditation is the first thing to come to mind, because it is something anyone can do, anywhere, anytime and it cost nothing, but a little time. That time is well spent just to practice feeling the calm of "everything is as it should be". I had to keep repeating that to myself if I found myself concerned in any way.

I resisted practice because I'd expected more than just to feel peace inside, which I never got to anyway. My mind wouldn't shut off until I learned to feel the feeling of "no concerns". It's not like concerns don't cross my mind ever. It's what I do with that thought that matters. I shut it off as immediate as I can because I know I'm doing everything I can, so "no worries". It works.
 
Once you're familiar with the deep feeling of "no concerns", sustaining that feeling does take consistent practice to master. I just felt people laughing as a response, because so many people can't have faith everything happens as it should. That takes a giant leap to believe what cannot be proven. But it is possible to prove it to yourself.

What have you observed and felt in nature? Stay open, stay observant and you will become aware of your personal abilities and how to use them.

Always ~ LL
