sandcastles1Are you ‘doing’ your life or experiencing it ? Most of us fill our day with apparently vital activities, acting and reacting to the world around us with a set of made up rules, regulations and habits.

But this ‘doing’ is NOT true experiencing.

Doing is based on an assumption that life needs you to ‘FIX’ it, in order for it to be acceptable

We DO, because we are in a constant state of judgment. Usually from within, about how things ‘SHOULD’ be.

As long as this exists we can never FULLY EXPERIENCE how things ARE. And hence the great beauty and lesson in what ‘IS!’

Like creating a sand castle most of us are constantly running around all day maintaining the walls of our illusion

We don’t see that these walls of ‘safety, familiarity and habit’ we are hiding behind, stop us seeing the truth about ourselves and the bigger picture for our life.

Whats worse. The frenetic ‘doing’, fools us into believing that activity equates to meaning. And distracts us from that niggling thought that maybe our life has none.

So why not take a moment to STOP today and EXPEIENCE.

Don’t fix or judge or plan or do. Just EXPERIENCE WHAT IS and the wisdom waiting in that moment for you to shut up and pay attention.

Some of you might panic at this thought. Thinking the sky will fall in or the earth will stop!

But trust me it wont.

And you might be AMAZED at the paths life reveals to you, when you stop believing that you know best
