‘Sometimes surrender means giving up trying to understand and becoming comfortable with not knowing.’ E. Tolle
Not knowing has actually been the longest companion of my life; it used to be a torture. Thinking of it now, I realize it’s a space, actually. A space where anything is possible.
Do you have a lot of not knowing in your life?
Congrats, it is a space in you, it’s the welcoming space – what else is possible space!
That is a lot better than defining your life as that or your relationship as it… Can you feel the difference? It’s like dead and done, boxed in perspectives. That is never true, by the way; there’s always more possible, always. Even if it’s insanely good already! 🙂
Of course in this reality we’ve always been made wrong for not knowing (nagging school teacher), not to mention empowered to let on what you do know. A lot of wrongness and making wrong for many things.
I remembered the question: What do I know about it? Stay in the question. Clarity will come. Clarity is the best thing; more of that, please! Every time you want to ask advice from someone, ask what do I know about it?
I’ve been contemplating what’s next for me; therefore, at the moment, I’m doing some of the things that you do in between times, but I thought, what if these in-between things are The things? The things I am doing today, including posting here or writing for magazines or modelling or take a pick (by far out of any comfort zone of mine), I didn’t think I would do in a million years, and yet it’s here, and I am doing these things. The list of these things is long; for the last 10 years, I didn’t know I had bravery or strength for many things.That makes me wonder, what else could I do that I always thought I wouldn’t? And you? What else could you do that you always thought you wouldn’t or couldn’t?🙂 Just do it!
Everything is possible. I might re-join the corp world for a bit(doesn’t feel light really), or actually I had a thought the other day that I would love to teach Access Foundation Class; it grew out of the situation that here in Australia there are no teachers I’d like to do it with. These 2 amazing people that I did my previous classes with aren’t doing it anymore. This is the class where every person will experience the Space within them in the grand way. All irrelevant falls away; clarity, calm, and possibilities replace the monkey mind. Your spirit is spacious, and there in this spaciousness is a happy in it. You’ll be smiling, and you do not know why…
You actually do not want to leave that space once the class is over, being afraid to lose it. You simply ask, How can I have more of it? Show me, Universe! That’s why I’d like to repeat it. It’s so gentle, coming home within yourself. Your life will unfold differently from that point on. Bars is like a mini version of the class every time.
That thought is a surprise for me, as I do not like the word teacher or teaching, even. I do not even enjoy people who have that ‘teacher’s voice’ (commanding, demanding, judging). Despite that, I am teaching sugar- and gluten-free cake making, but everyone who has attended has reviewed it with everything else other than the word teaching, so I guess I am doing it differently.
However, the pathway to become a foundation teacher cost is $25k. I still have migration to feed a little bit…so the world has to wait or what else is possible with it that I haven’t considered?
It’s ok not to know 🙂 It’s a Space of all possibilities!
You can try Access Bars this coming weekend at the Mind Body Spirit festival in Brisbane. I’ll be there for a little bit. Country girl gets to the city! 🙂
And a happy song! 🙂 So 80s.
