Quote of the Week

“Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, some day far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”

Rainer Maria Rilke

Happy Beautiful Spring!

“What happens when the soul takes hold of the eyes?”                            Casey Haymes

When we live solely from our thoughts our emotions are often whirling and we often wonder why we have good days and bad days.  Our thoughts create our emotions and then our behaviors and we often feel like our thoughts are out of our control.  There are tapes we have been listening to for so long we don’t even consciously know they are there. We have ways of looking at ourselves and others that are just habit and sometimes those habits make us feel badly.

Have you every noticed how your emotions can be altered by the minute depending on what is happening around you and then layered with judgment of what is going on around you makes it even worse?  This is a powerful combination that can lead us out of peace and into reaction.  Most of our intimate relationships are lived in reaction to one another because we are playing thoughts and judgments about everything that is going on.  This is how we stay in a cycle of behavior that doesn’t feel great to anyone.

What if we were willing to look with new eyes?  What if we were willing to look through more loving eyes, more compassionate eyes?  How would we feel then?  The answer is more love and compassion which feels better than anger, fear and pain.  So why don’t we do this more?  Working with people on relationships we often focus on loving Self so that we are choosing consciously our path of thought.  Choosing the path which supports our own emotional joy and happiness seems so logical but we don’t always do it.  It often seems easier to be in reaction losing sight of how we really want to feel to how we are used to feeling.  It is the choice of habit over vision.

The work on reprogramming buttons is essential so we are no longer in reaction but in action as in our highest vision of ourselves.  When we do the deeper work of understanding our buttons and where they came from we can then step out of the pattern of reactive behavior and into witnessing what is happening and then making more conscious choices.  When we choose the action that love sponsors we always look back and love how we showed up and there isn’t anyone or anything that can take that away or diminish it in the least.  When we deprogram buttons and step beyond the illusion of not feeling safe or loved in relationship we are able to more freely choose our response in any moment.  We are free.  Understanding how much of our present life is being dictated by the past is key to moving forward and gaining the ability to make changes.

Our intimate relationships are so powerful to help us gain this deeper knowledge of ourselves.  To know ourselves is to love and understand ourselves.  The compassion and love begins inside each of us by our willingness to look again with new eyes; the eyes of the soul.  The Soul is all knowing, all loving and has no fear.  It’s a wonderful place to be and spend time!  Meditation helps us be in that connected space along with breath work and suddenly we see clearly in the most beautiful way the Truth.
