Dear ,
Some weeks ago I, was in a quite bad mood (and yes, this happens also to me - haha).
I felt stuck, full of doubts and there was a deep sadness inside of me. Honestly, I just wanted to hide in some corner and stay there forever.
Well, fortunately I couldn’t, because I had to go to another city. So I got into my car and started driving. And while I was driving, I suddenly had an amazing insight that changed my mood immediately.
Life is in constant movement.
Even when we think we are stuck – life is already moving on.
We might be stuck in our thoughts, in a situation, we might think we are stuck, but underneath things are already moving. Only that often they are moving in a pace which is so slow that we are not aware of it.
So while I was driving on that day, I realized that I was moving through the countryside and I became aware of the beauty of this movement and its changes. Behind every bend something new was waiting for me which I might not have seen, had I stayed at home in my “corner”.
And all of a sudden new thoughts came up, I could feel my body becoming alive again, the smile returning to my face, and trust and joy filling my whole being. I started to sing along with the radio and within less than 30 minutes the deadlock had completely gone.
The lesson I learnt on that day was: Sometimes we just need to trust that – however stuck we might feel - things are already moving, because life is movement. And when we start moving physically – no matter in what way, we align with the movement of life that carries us forward.
For me, on that day, it was driving my car. But you can also simply walk consciously, dance, swim or ride your bike.
In this moment in time many of us feel stuck, life feels stuck and the global situation never ending. This is what I hear and sense in many conversations.
But when we become aware of that – no matter how things might seem today – life is already moving and that we are part of that constant movement, we can come alive again, become creative, get together and start realigning with the movement of life.
So in whatever situation you might be in this moment: just trust – you are already moving.
Sending you my best wishes for a not too hot month of August in the spirit of love and reconciliation
