Cultivating Clarity

These March days, Ben’s excitement for our garden is fun to witness.

He added manure during the mild winter, and he’s purchased seeds locally and through the mail.

We’ve had seeds germinating in pots and other containers for quite a few weeks.

And this morning, Ben said he’ll plant peas after work. The onions already are in.  I smile and thank him, practically salivating as I imagine the bounty of fresh vegetables we’ll enjoy in the months ahead.

Woo hoo!

And then there are the flower beds.

Last year, our first living together, Ben commented that although the flowers looked great, the second year would be wildly better once the beds have matured.

Really?  Wildly better than this?!

So as I write, given that memory, I smile…imagining those warm, sunny days I’ll hang out with the presence of our flowers.

Sacred.

Did you ever think about a cucumber or a pea pod, a daffodil or a rose….that they CLEARLY know who they are.

Given good earth, sunshine, and water, they grow into their radiant selves, clearly proclaiming who they came here to be.

I am a Cucumber.

I am a Pea Pod.

I am a Daffodil.

I am a Rose.

A cucumber doesn’t grow to be a carrot.

A Rose doesn’t grow to be a lily.

How many of us are able to boldly proclaim who we came here to be, beyond the fact we’re human beings?

How many of us have that kind of clarity?

You do?

Congratulations!!!!

Way to evolve into a high-functioning version of your sweet self, dear reader.

Or…

Are we instead filled with blocks, resentments, and egoic noise, keeping us from becoming our best selves?

Are we confused, distracted, overly busy?

Are we exhausted, highly caffeinated, managing dis-ease?

Humbly and gratefully, I’m pretty darn sure I’m living into the CLEAR goal of my soul, which was to heal into peace and joy (after heaven knows how many lifetimes), and to be one model of CLARITY.

I’ve been told that this website filled with articles, the ezine (Go In Joy!) I create each week, and my presence CLEARLY communicate lots of peace and joy, and point to ways of healing into our best selves.

Hallelujah!

Gee whiz.

After all, it’s ONLY been a few thousand years for me to get to this place…this place of BEING myself and Myself, the I am presence of Joy.

Truly, this is humbling and almost difficult to accept.

Except that I’d LONGED to heal into my radiant, soulful self all these years, and I’m relieved, grateful, and joyful that I’ve landed in this place.

I’ll continue to heal and evolve, as I live deeper into my soul’s journey here.

And let me say that the vantage point after healing into this version of myself is kind of interesting.

I see more CLEARLY why lots of folks aren’t their radiant, soulful selves, how they’ve gotten stuck, or off the track of believing in themselves, or worn out from trying to be all things to everyone else.

I see more CLEARLY that our biggest work is to prepare our own soil, just as Ben has prepared the soil in our garden.

We need to do inner work, journal in solitude, surrender our lives to the One we believe in, cultivating the soil of our beings.

When we heal our minds past egoic noises of comparing, berating, and whining; when we heal our bodies of trapped emotions, alignment issues, and dis-ease; and when we heal our Spirits by communing in silence, we live into the CLEAR, amazing versions of ourselves we incarnated to become.

May you cultivate more and more clarity on your way to being YOU!
