Oh, Elektra, sweetie! I admit I felt the same thing about 2 months

ago or maybe more when you and Katerine and Sarita were on fire and I

wasn't doing much of anything K-wise. It goes in fits and starts,

like watching a race where one is ahead for a bit then another

overtakes, then a different one and so on. I know this isn't a race

nor do I think of it as a competition in any way but that's the sort

of image I have when someone goes gangbusters while I sit idol. Now

things may be starting up for me again and I am grateful! But I'm

more grateful for all of you out there as you say, lighting up the

world. The more of us that light up the world, the more we are going

to bring people that are ready along with us. MHO, not that it means

much. But in my eyes, where even one of you is gaining in K, so am I

in a sense and I'm very happy. Recently, Becky and Scott, my

goodness, you guys light up my day! So we can all really be one for

all and all for one here. It's who we are, and a family of kindred

souls most of all.

 

So keep your chin up, sweet fairy, you will burst ahead again and

we'll all be sitting here going " Mother, thank you! "

 

Love and gratitude, all around,

Valarie

That sounds like excellent progress Elektra! It would not surprise

me if Shakti starts moving inside after that epiphany, not to mention

that neat dream you had!

 

Hugs!

You're right, it's not about a race. Since we are all connected and

all one, if any of us progresses, we all do! This is not a me, me, me

kind of process. Important lessons are being learned in our " down

time " . Everything moves exactly as it should.

Thats just it Valerie, I need to stop wanting for

myself, thats the realisation I had, this feeling of

selfishness was really icky feeling inside.

Focusing on something as if I don't have it is not a

" good " thing to focus on, it also takes me into

dreaming of the future instead of focusing on the NOW.

So, from NOW I am going to focus my attention on being

grateful for all of you!!!

 

Thanks my sister

Love Elektra x x x

Beloved Elektra, when I read your post what came to

mind is that we are all a part of one big Snake...each

part of the Snake's Body is developing. We're each

cells in the Body developing in our own way, at our

own pace, manifesting our role as it comes. The deeper

Intention is there within us -- growing us -- like the

acorn and the tree. No one can get left behind on the

Shakti Express!

 

Hugs and love, dhyana

I second that. It was helpful to me, too. Reads like a prayer of thanksgiving.

The first part reminds me of a song, I used to sang at church.

 

Love & Blessings,

For those of us in the US, it is almost the holiday Thanksgiving.What are some of the rituals and traditions people on the list use to honor the goodness in their lives (wherever you may be)?After spending time with my family, I will be teaching a class where donations for a local food bank will be the 'cost' of the class.What are some folks favorite sets or meditations that might enhance the spirit of gratitude?Sumpuran KaurAlbuquerque, NM
