Oh, For the Love of...

May 28, 2007 by Andre Best

Have you ever experienced the fact of actually enjoying doing something from deep within your heart and yet fighting with actually doing it? Perhaps it's building a relationship. Perhaps it's building a career. Perhaps it's actively playing with your children. Perhaps it's taking the effort to go out with friends to that latest flick. Perhaps it's finding the time and making the effort to write that latest entry in your blog.

Life has a funny way of showing us where our heart strings are really tied to. And where they're not. How? Easy. Watch where your actions go. And notice where they don't.

Do you think that you like doing a certain activity, yet when it comes to doing it you find yourself making up excuses for not doing it when it really comes down to it? Or do you experience yourself joyously jumping at the chance to experience that task and all that it offers you every time that it presents itself to you and our day?

Life is showing you where your heart lives. Life is working very hard to get you to see beyond your mind. Life is working ever so diligently to have you know that it knows where you should be spending your time and not what you think you should be doing with that time. That precious time that you have to make things work.

Life speaks to us all the time.

It's just that we're not listening.

There are so many instances in one's day where Life is working to show us where we really should be honoring our Spirit inside. And where we shouldn't. But, for most people, this is something that we choose to ignore. And sometimes at our own peril.

You know the feeling. That sixth sense. That gut feeling. That sensing that the thing that you look forward to doing at the time that you're not doing it, and yet, when the opportunity comes to do it, you find yourself not salivating to do it anymore.

That's the sixth sense speaking to you, in a roundabout way. It's working to tell you that your mind is playing a trick on you. It's trying to show you that you need to be watchful for what the mind is telling you, and to follow your heart instead.

When it comes to doing what you really want to do, everything inside of you is in sync with that passion. Everything is working with you towards that end, not against you fighting the ending. Life wants you to be happy. Life wants you to have what you want. Life wants to work with you to give you the experiences that you so desire. But, often, one's mind gets in the way and stops the opportunity from taking place and being enjoyed.

Think about what you want to do. And then feel if it feels right. Feel if it makes sense inside to be doing that wanting. And if it doesn't, then just simply don't do it. Don't do it because that was the mind playing you for a sap and trying to get you to once again go along with it to no end. It wanted you to believe that that thing would allow you to experience the joy of what you were imagining. But, we all know that that is most often not the case in instances like this.

But, when the heart is listened to, when the heart is followed, when the heart is honored, then life is experienced to the utmost. Life is experienced as wonderful serendipity and faithful occurrence. Why is this so?

Because Spirit was honored.

Because Spirit was aligned with and allowed to be experienced through to its wonderful conclusion.

Life is speaking to us throughout our days. It's just that we're so busy being mindful that we don't hear it. And when Life is allowed to be experienced, then that task that is so effortful, now becomes effortless, virtually. And you become aligned with your Spirit and Life itself, and, as an added benefit you are also feeding your Heart.

And we all know how one feels inside when that happens. Ain't it grand?

And, there is one more thing that you just might find out when you find yourself aligning more with the inside voice.

You might find that since you are not fighting with life to make it go and appear and run the way you and your mind think it should be, that you are now more happy, more satisfied, more aligned with what Life had in store for you from the get-go.

Just now you're allowing it to just be, inside of you, and that will bring with it a sense of inner peace. Inner peace, something that most of us don't feel too much during our days here on Earth. That deep knowing that everything is going as it should go. Not according to our plans, but according to what it is meant to be happening as, just that, nothing else.

Inner satisfaction.

Inner peace.

Inner happiness that Life is 'working'.

That is what the true meaning of synchronicity is, as far as this writer is concerned. Inner alignment, with what is already and has always been aligned. Sweet.
