In Many Ways We Already Know...

I find that having and being patient means to have an absolute knowing within you that you’re in harmony with the force that placed you here.  In fact we are the designers of our own life. 

You already know that the right people will show up on a schedule that really hasn’t any pre-determined schedule at all. You already know that there is something that will be taking place regardless of what you do. Sometimes when we attempt to rush the schedule based on you timetable is the same as getting down on you knees and working something in which over working it will impede accomplishing what will already take place and hence become.  I sit here writing about this as in the formation and the creativity of producing something. Most often I have found that regardless of what I do, it may happen when the time is appropriate.  When and how it happens is something in which I regard with an inner respect and an inner calm.  As I realize that changes do happen, regardless of what they may be.  Ins some way shape and form I have total faith that within this thought - things will happen.  This is where I often refer to the idea of allowing things to flow.

We live in a world in which we can extract ourselves from our own self's for the sake of - or we can just accept and understand deep within that there is something that is within that regardless of what we do they will take place and will happen.
 

If I am asked to do a task within work or within my personal life, I usually will just acknowledge it, because I realize the worthiness within it, but there again I wont make a judgment on it - I will come to it when I have the time to do so.  Within all the areas that take up my day, there is a synchronicity of how all the different things flow. 

Accomplishing it is really merely being attuned to several things but most importantly being attuned and within a spirit of harmony with myself.  Realizing possibilities and carrying out desires and understanding that regardless
of how much I work at it, or try to do several things would never accomplish anything at all.  Therefore I just allow my own cadence and let things flow....
I think there is certain assurance and then there is a faith of sorts pending on what you believe in, as everyone does believe in something regardless of where they come from.   Which would lead to the very same thing as an inner faith is in the realizations of what can be completed rather than what MUST be completed. 

For within that areas of accomplishments each and every person that we regard in history never lived to the cadence of the society that they were immersed in, they lives in accordance to there own way.  I do believe that many of them lived attune to their own self while merged within their societies. 

But understanding, that they were not in need of changing for their society but rather making their own significant imprint within their lives in the way and manner they desired.  I think there is a little harmony with that taken into account.  And not only into account but also actually within ones own self.

This is a writing I found from long ago and when I read it still does apply...

  1. Yessssss..........this reminds me of ST. Francis of Assisi and his struggles to do and be what was right for him. It is a wonderful story. Someday I will find a statue of him to put in my garden. I am not Catholic but really appreciate this man's story of his struggles. He was very human.

  3. I found this on my old blog of y360 - now and then I look back at in and see what I wrote and it's very interesting to see the changes and similarities in my own mindset as this really is some of the writings I love to write and they are authentically inspired.
    Thank you all...

  4. Yes Jack, just go with the flow, I have always found that is best for me anyway.
    It is amazing how when we go back & read some of our writings from years back, how we still think & write in almost the same way. One would think there would be a LOT of changes after living through many more new experiences, but I find there are not as many as I would have thought there would be, in my own writings anyway.

  6. Jack...as I reflect on old journal entries, I often look for patterns to emerge to help ensure I have some actual "momentum" in my life. After reflecting on 2008, I found that at times, my "cadence" was actually in tune with some positive, proactive steps that aligned with my faith; other times, I used "cadence" to my detriment, allowing myself times of unfounded apathy that produced nothing actually noteworthy or helpful,a nd left me feeling quite defeated. I believe that we all win when we see a balance between performance and simply "being" what God created us to be, one moment at a time. If I allow for too much "time off", I find that nothing gets done, and I fail to value my time or anyone else's. Conversely, if my identity is caught up in how busy my calendar looks, than I have a false sense of who I am and what I am "being"...since I am myopically focused on "doing." The balance of creating time to be and to do helps realign me with the cadence God created in me...and allowing for serendipity in certain "planned" moments may frustrate me at times, but often, end up being the most rewarding moments of entropy that I can indulge in! My point is that if we can simply remain self-aware enough in most of our moments, and not insistently submit our agenda to God requiring that He merely sign off on our desire, we may in fact receive His agenda for us in a way that, (although may NOT meet up with our timetable), somehow provides us with a fulfillment that no plan of our own making could ever create. Just a thought...

  7. G'day Jack,
    I feel that in being true to oneself, we can sometimes forget that others have that right as well, this can lead to conflict, hurt feelings etc, we tend to forget that our right doesn't necessarily make it another's right, from their point of view

  8. Others certainly do. Everyone has a perspective that is different, and I think that in writing what each of us wished to write on is for what it just is. Our own perspectives and the views to realize what is of of value. Within a car accident if and when the people that have witnessed something each one will have a different story pertaining to what had happened - each one had seen exactly the same accident but each one viewed it within a different manner.

    So if we all were exactly alike it would be a rather "black and white" view point.

  9. It's one thing being true to one's self and another to be insensitive to others, there is a balance between the two that is important to maintain.

  10. Mais oui, and this was a picture that YOU sent me a while ago before I returned to Canada. To me that indicates that even though we have never talked, we have been good friends - I think in many ways there is balance and we examplify what that meaning is as the picture that you had sent me, I did keep and back when I was in Edmonton, and now I am in Saskatoon - you knew without there being anything said but the words gave the examply.
