THROUGH US, NOT TO US

(c) 2009 Howard McQueen

The belief that the physical world
is happening to us,
rather than through us,
creates a mountain of mischief.

The perception and interpretation
of what is happening outside
is all a matter for our interior
to shape and decide.

Our emotional discomfort is the lens,
the pain body, the active agent
that hi-jacks our awareness
and our thinking mind make-believes
the physical world
is out to get us.

Hey, the evidence is like everywhere, right?

Our work is to be present to whatever is arising
especially those emotional discomforts we've hidden away.
In reclaiming these hi-jacking energies,
we return to ourselves the original gifts
to tune into the vibration of un-filtered,
unconditional Love
and be living in Grace, completely grateful
for all of living, all encounters
with whatever life is serving up in this moment.
