Stories and Distractions

When we know we are energy beings we begin to live away from the fear-based stories our minds create and begin living from the other option that is available to us-the perspective of our true, eternal nature of the Soulful Self.

Oh, this eye is annoying...so much "in my face" ...lol.  I can see well and everything but there seems to be so much pressure on the inside...like in and around the orbit itself . The eye feels heavy.  It is hard to keep the lid opened wide. This is a trigeminal nerve thing, I think. I hope I do not end up with a Bell's?? Oh well...if it happens it happens, I suppose. I would really have to say that the universe was trying to have a talk with me then. Wouldn't I?  Seriously, I have been complaining about the intermittent pressure feeling in that eye for years, even before the vessicles started popping up, and I have been fine: no drooping faces, no loss of vision etc...all good.  

Why did I share that?  Still looking to create story with what unfolds in front of me or in me, aren't I? Instead of simply allowing the felt experience of the eye thing, and what it triggers in the form of stuffed emotional discomfort related to past health seeking, that is probably crying to be released...I am resisting it all by skipping out of the physical and energetic body to hide in the mental one.  It is such an automatic habit.

When exactly, I wonder, will the need for building story end in this human I call "me"? At what point of my journey will I finally realize, "Oh my, I am completely empty of the need for story!" 

I take a big leap in my thinking to, "What would life be like to be out of the head, completely embodied, and living in each moment, constantly experiencing the flow of shakti?" 

I can't even imagine.  I am so far from that point, it is too blurry to see. I know that is the direction I am heading in but, like too many humans, I still suffer from spiritual  ADHD, despite the treatment I began years ago. I get so distracted, again and again. I get pulled into this human's dramas to the point I find myself  waking up in the middle of the night in the strange bush not knowing how I got there.  I then have to stumble my way back to the path and start again. After a few more steps, I realize I have wandered off once again. I am constantly wandering off the  path into story. There are so many distractions. And when the end point of the hike is so far away you can't see it...the distractions can have more pull then the end goal does. Sigh!

I guess, we just have to keep letting go of what is distracting our consciousness as we move forward one step at a time. 

 The highest path is learning through your daily life to gradually let go of what is distracting your consciousness.

All is well!
