Living the dream doesn’t come without its hurdles. It’s slightly before 10am. My view from my camp chair is a 360 degree panoramic display of incredibly mountains, high altitude beauty, blue skies with passing clouds. Monsoon season here has been plentiful the past couple of weeks. A wonderfully, heart warming visit from a very dear, old friend of ours and his mini-me of a daughter; lifted our spirits tremendously.
Lately, Drew and I have begun fantasizing of the human amenities that we miss. As we have been living in our pop up for over 3 months now. Our list includes, running water; which is our most used necessity, bath tub (epsom salt soaks), anything kitchen (Vita Mix, Crock Pot, Juicer), we miss growing things (sprouts, cultured veggies, kefir), things that require temperature control and proper storage space.
The concept of hurdles can certainly apply to those human things that we miss. The hurdles that go unseen and are by far the most life changing; are the private moments in a growing marriage. Communication gets muddled, emotions come unhinged, and then the truth unravels. These are the hard moments with golden outcomes. Listening, shifting our awareness, de-programming, re-programming all require the act of letting IT go. IT can be anything, old wounds, negative mind talk, setting aside un-useful patterns of single minded behavior trading it in for a group mind partnership and experience.
Less than 36 hours ago a rainbow appeared over our campsite as the sun was setting and the monsoon was dissipating. Yesterday, a snake slithered across my path in the early evening. During the darkest hours of the morning, under a star-filled, milk way sky...the music of a coyote pack filled my soul with deep comfort.
I feel a kinship with the energy of the Coyote, I believe the teachings I am to gain from them is vast. For optimal survival they are reliant on a group-mind. My brief snake encounter felt like a symbol of remembering the global shifts on this planet, as well as my own personal growth and transformation as the Kundalini continues to awaken in all of us. Rainbows are created from a perfect harmonic unity that produces a symbol of supernatural beauty, promise, and enlightenment.
Awakening the heart, embracing the group mind, flowing with the divine.
Gifts that come when acting from a place of devotion, surrender, and communing with nature.
Much Love to All!
