Why resist the inevitable?

Many people resist their feelings, resist their impulses, and resist those things that enable them to add meaning to their lives.  You may be surprised at how many times you have resisted your better judgment.  It happens often. Your awareness is still growing.

Reflect on when you last crossed your legs to postpone going to the toilet.  You had other things to do, right?  And what about how many times you have ignored your growling tummy in favor of finishing some project, television program or, other distraction? What about ignoring yawns from your mouth? Just stretching facial muscles? Squinting for fun? 

Physical examples lead you to grasp that you also resist on spiritual and other levels.  You resist things you do not see.  Part of you is unaware of what you do. Part of you resists reminding yourself of the truth.   Pace yourself. You develop and expand understanding.

Raising self-awareness is inevitable.  It occurs in stages. It helps explain why you begin to recognize the things you do not as you do them, but before, as you conceive of the very ideas.   This goes a step beyond anticipating.  You move toward stepping outside your physical body and sensing who you really are.  This is deep.  Lying to yourself only postpones the inevitable.  Resistence defines your learning curve. Let go.  Unleash soul.

Hi Liara. Ahh resistance! Know it well. I'm in a letting go phase, but there is a grey area I realized. I can't tell anymore if I'm letting go, or so attached to letting go that I'm "trying" to let go rather than allowing. Does that make sense?

Yes, what we resist persists. We could give ourselves as much time as we need, it's not going to go away.

Miruh, wheneer you feel a heightened sensitivity to a particular feeling, this serves you. To feel a magnified sense of fear or joy or whatever is an invitation to shift focus to what this is teaching you. NO place is better for you than where you are. Cherish that.

Davina, as you evolve to permit energy to flow in its natural way, you will no longer question whether you are allowing. When you question, you lack faith. This is an invitation to build faith and trust. You decide the path and stages of your journey.

Hi Liara. Thanks for your reply to my comment. That turned on a light...

So I told my on-line producer, exactly what I thought of the modified procedures...I unleashed soul

Although I have written the above rather 'tongue in cheek', that is exactly what has happened. (actually I did it before I read this post)

I'll let you know what transpires. (it feels good tho')

Henry, nothing compares to being true to yourself. You know it when you do it and it feels right. You feel this in every cell of your body, your mind and your spirit.

Davina, great to hear you notice new stages of self-awareness. May they continue to flow in ways that enable you to reacquaint with spirit.
