I find that my mind loves to interpret things as cause-and-effect. If X happens [cause], assuming x is something I don’t like, then I experience upset [effect]. My mind is so quick to judge the reason for my upset and assign blame to the reason, as if it has the power to upset me. And yet, I find myself in upset when my computer misbehaves or someone doesn’t return my call, or a project doesn’t come through as expected. Each of these upsets is really about challenging something I value. Perhaps my value for being productive, for connection, for co-creation, for fulfillment.
But when I dive even deeper, each of these upsets is rocking my boat – and even capsizing it – because I loose connection with feeling PEACE. Peace of mind – peace in my body – peace from my heart.
That peace from my heart radiating out, informing me that all is well. The up-set is now a set-up to inform me of the misalignment I’m experiencing now – i.e. separation from peace.
