Recognize What Makes You Truly Happy


February 5, 2010

Ahhhhh, it starts for me today. This meditation really resonated with me today. I can tell that it has before, at least two times – I have underlined different sentences in two different colors.

On this brisk but mild February day, Ms. Ban Breathnach counsels us to wean ourselves from outside input for a week or so, suggesting that often we are surprised that our opinions aren’t so much thought out as they are adopted from others – media, relatives, friends. She says, “Listen to the whisper of your authentic self telling you which way to go. We are always being shown the next step of our uniquely personal journey.” (I so love her writing – that sentence is just loaded with rich value and meaning).

If we are listening, if we pay attention to our deepest self, we can start to hear things we may have been ignoring in the past.

Sarah says, “Listen Carefully. Spirit is playing your song.” Now, that is music to my soul.

Love to you all.
