Contemplation by a. siqueiros 3/9/2011 |
Contemplating always in thought of current & passed events we spilt right down the middle. The events that have taken place in my life may be something you too can relate to. That too familiar feeling of sadness. I realized that my inner knowing had told me to say something, and I did not pay attention. I thought, with regret, back to other times when I had heard that voice and ignored it. The simplest yet most elusive lesson in life is learning to listen to that guiding voice. I've learned to respond to it more and more, yet the times still come when I admit that I have just missed some extraordinary experience because I failed to catch the message fast enough. And when that happens, something irrevocably lost. It is vital at such moments to learn how to forgive oneself. Perhaps the awakened state means being ever ready to respond. Something that no one can be all the time. But we can approach it! And we can learn to listen more and more reliably. Mastery means responsibility, ability to respond in real time to the need of the moment. Intuitive or inspired living mean not just passively hearing the voice, but acting on it. Learn to respond to your muse.
