Me First

Being the change we wish to see

Life is so full of meaning and purpose, so full of beauty beneath its covering, that you will find earth but cloaks your heaven. Courage then to claim it; that is all! But courage you have, and the knowledge that we are pilgrims together, wending through unknown country home.

What Renaissance friar Fra Giovanni Giocondo wrote back in 1513 is encouraging today in 2020 as we struggle with what happened in Minneapolis and how to make it right. We do so by making it right first within ourselves.

We know about putting on our own oxygen mask before helping another with theirs but let’s take me first to a much deeper level.

I love the barter system. I trade with a massage therapist: a life coaching and energy session for her and on another day, a massage for me. Pre-pandemic, I closed her last session with some energy balancing.

“What magic were you working? I never felt that way before. It was amazing!” she exclaimed.

Here’s the secret. I didn’t “work” on her. I worked on me. As I focused on myself raising my vibration, she entrained to me. And at the end of that session, we were resonating together and I received a healing as well. It happens every time.

Extrapolate that to the world at large.

Let me take you next to a situational scenario of ‘me first.’

Turmoil ensues as in the unfair directive of a supervisor at my job. I can’t change him so I work on me.I calm down the sad not-feeling-understood-appreciated-loved-or-safe child within, every time she got upset.

And since I felt anything but, I silently wished this person peace while I held myself there as well. As many times a day as I got distressed about him, I took an opportunity to stop, find the smile within me, and bring him into that space until I could relax and smile again. I looked past his heavy persona to the lightness and innocence beyond. Then I let him go.

Peace be with you. I wish you peace. Go in peace.

It took three days but my buttons weren’t pushed by the thought or sight of him anymore. Nothing was arising. I knew my inner work was done. This situation was an opportunity for me to burn off emotional weight by developing spiritual muscle.

And here’s the kicker.

At a staff meeting on the third day after the inciting incident, a colleague entirely in the dark about what I had been through asked a related question of his supervisor and that erroneous directive was undone. Just like that.

More magic.

The Takeaway

Justice prevailed for me because I was in just the right place, the inner space of peace and nothing arising, even though it took a lot of effort and angst arising to get there.

And I learned the lesson. My integrity does not depend on another’s approval.

Now this lesson, as most lessons of an emotional nature, would come around again and again as deeper layers of the psyche emerge in the future. For now I got this layer. And I got it good.

Some Science

As the science of physics demonstrates, energy precedes matter. In the same way being precedes doing in its importance. The space we do things from is paramount to and influences our activities.

It’s not what are you doing but rather where are you…within.

And sometimes it can take some time to get into a better space; but relate this to takeaways for being part of the solution, Minneapolis or otherwise.

A POI: Person of Inspiration

A poster child for the magical lightness of being, a sweet friend of mine in England creates delightful artwork, full of color and whimsy and life. She emailed me today and in part said she feels embarrassed to be filling her home with food and flowers and creating an Eden for herself. This is a woman whose husband passed away suddenly from a heart attack about 14 years ago. She was homeless for a time and lived on social assistance raising 3 children on her own.

I wrote back.

You are worthy! You have manifested these things to support your vibration, which supports the entire planet. It is the greatest singular thing you can do. Be joyous.

Dear Readers

I leave you to be the magic.

I wish you peace.

And I wish you joy.

Fill your home with food and flowers or whatever feeds your soul and create an Eden for yourself. You will find that earth but cloaks your heaven.
