Appreciation, gratitude & balance

When you appreciate, you recognize the nature of unconditional love and how allowing yourself to feel that increases the intangible value of an experience.  Appreciation is like the absence of doubt, fear, negativity, and all those things that have no relevance to the energy you are vibrating when you feel good.  Consider thoughts of fear do not cross the mind when your focus of attention is on the frequency of love.  You may sense selective awareness, as if the lens of love only sees mesages of love.  As you find the silver lining, see something good in others or in every situation, you appreciate or, make the most of where you are.  You know resistance cannot emerge in allowing.

Gratitude resonates a slightly different energy.  Gratitude is a feeling that emerges as part of the process of sensing accomplishment, like after you overcome an obstacle.  It is then you feel grateful to be where you are after hard work or struggle.  You may feel grateful to be alive after surviving an accident or health issue.  In this way, choosing to feel grateful brings balance.  It brings you from a state of fear back to the inner knowing of the love that is.  A spark of doubt still resides within you about the possibility of having to endure pain and suffering again.  You recall what unwavering acceptance feels like by feeling gratitude, but do not dwell there every moment. You falter slightly.

Hi Liara .. so true ... gratitude balances us back, then we need to appreciate that balance in life, the fact that we can take time to appreciate, to be aware .. so important these three attributes. Thanks - Hilary

Therefore, in Appreciation, one is in connection to that which we are aware of. Balance has not been lost, where one is in perpetual flow from one moment to the next. The energy of the moment is thereby energized with our loving attention..... and so there is value and appreciation beyond form and the physical.

In contrast, gratitude brings one back into balance from a place of lack and disharmony. Gratitude then is a relief and release from resistance into a state of grace. Through gratitude, one gets back on their feet after they have fallen or one learns to fly again after their clipped flight feathers grow back. Therefore, to feel grateful, implies one has been suffering where one is lost in form and the physical.

So by recognizing that we have become grateful for our new perspective and state of being, we can intend to appreciate and bring value and authenticity into every interaction where gratitude then is replaced by a graceful attitude.

Hilary, you are deeply discovering the idea that you need not look for what you want but rather notice who you are. Innocently open to the moment. Appreciate it as it is. You find more that can be wanted because more than you can fathom is who you are. If you give up gratitude n favor of being now, then the next teaching or experience is irrelevant. All of it is you. You are travelling in a directionless direction. As you feel grateful for who you think you are, deep down you doubt thought. Acceptance is given. It is the mind that resists for its own reasons.

Bern. teaching is illusion. This is an invitation to allow life to reveal itself through you. Investigate for yourself. The truth speaks most loudly when you look for nothing. Trust the feeling of unconditional love and appreciation. The heart knows.
