“To succeed in your professional life isn’t that hard, but to succeed in your personal life is a lot harder. To really be a human is a lot harder. We forget about that.”

These are the words of Yann Arthus-Bertrand, director of the film Human, from which the clip below was taken. The gentleman in the clip is Jose Mujica. Dubbed ‘the world’s poorest president,’ he recently retired after a five year run as the president of Uruguay. In the 60’s and 70’s, he was a Tupamaros freedom fighter, and was subsequently detained and put in solitary confinement for 13 years. After holding several positions within the Uruguayan government, he eventually became the president of his country, serving from 2010 to 2015. Over the course of his life he has endured the unimaginable, and he offers us today some wisdom borne of his incredible experiences.

“I dedicated myself to the struggle for change, to improve life in my society. And now, I am the president.” 

What is beautiful about navigating your life expression through a surrendered state of flow is that it takes all the guess work out of things for you. When you are surrendered into the flow, your highest self, your guides and helpers, are taking the lead. The flow will take you, in the fastest, most efficient way possible, to the exact experiences and connections you wish to have that best honour your soul’s desires and highest purpose. Your job is to cooperate by staying out of resistance. It is very difficult to assist a resistant human being!

Through the knowingness that you are being lovingly guided, from that space of faith and trust, you can then move into a deep state of acceptance that everything is unfolding with divine perfection. When your focus is freed from worry and anchored with faith and trust, you can then start to notice the magic that abounds all around you, and how unconditionally loved you are by a universe that only wishes to serve you. That, Dear Ones, is when you will fall madly in love with life and your experience of co-creator. ~Archangel Gabriel

God said:

What is distress but a pulling tight of your heartstrings? Language sometimes describes tension as getting wound up. Distress is a contraction of your heart. It is your heart that you are pulling tight, as if your heart were the bow of an arrow you get ready to let go, yet never do let go. You keep tightening your heart as if to make life taut and fraught without cease or release.

Language also tells you to unwind.

Your heart is like a violin string.

You are pulling your heart back too far and tie your heart up in knots.

Your heart is restrained with fear. What terrible thing would happen if you would release all your built-up tension and untangle your palpitating heart from tension?

Freedom would happen.

You have been breathing too much air into your heart as if your heart were a balloon. Let some of the air out so your heart can be a viable heart and not a heart squeezed tight.

You don’t even know what you are afraid of. Your fear is generalized without demarcation. It is an unknown overwhelming fear that leaves you jagged. Jagged fear presses on you, oppresses you, represses you. Fear is like a tourniquet you wind too tight.

You are like a runner who cannot seem to stop running. Even in sleep, your legs are churning.

You may fear that you would be undone if you were not wound tight. You may fear, that you would collapse, relapse when you have a lapse in tension. Of course, this relaxation is exactly what is required.

What is tension doing as your long-lived companion?.

Continued from part 1. Read full post here.

When we understand and embody love, we’ll see that unity isn’t as much about being the same as it is honoring individuality.

The very idea that unity should mean conformity says something about the human condition, and love will reawaken the understanding of what unity is supposed to be.

We can then share this understanding with those who’ve been in the dark about love, unity and respect, and if we work hard enough and share our truth with everyone who’s willing to listen, the influence of love and genuine unity will spread like wildfire.

The world will finally have the collective awakening it needs, and even more important will be the social action that results. We’ll finally care enough about each other and our planet to take a stand for the environment and the human rights that are denied to us, and the work will be easier because we’ll do it all together.

by Zen Gardner

It’s such a remarkable time we’re living in right now. All of this going on both within and without us is happening almost before we can even begin to identify what it is we’re going through or where we’re headed. It’s very much like we’re flying over and around new rocks in the stream of life and shooting down even more unexpected and sometimes seriously daunting rapids.

There’s not much else to think about while body surfing this incredible current.

I’m hearing from so many this sense of being in limbo and having to deal with unforeseen and quite immediate obstacles and issues that seem to be draining their time, attention and energy. Things arise in all of our lives that have to be dealt with, but so often the next move or decision seems to escape our awareness and it can make us feel confused and powerless.

It’s certainly not a time to make rash decisions. In fact, it’s important to stand back, observe and wait for the answers to manifest as much as possible. In the words of Ponka Chief White Eagle:

“When you are in doubt, be still, and wait; when doubt no longer exists for you, then go forward with courage. So long as mists envelop you, be still; be still until the sunlight pours through and dispels the mists — as it surely will. Then act with courage.”

Freedom – the freedom to grow and expand in the ways that are divinely perfect for you is an essential need for the soul. The greatest way you can support that freedom is to allow yourself to be the wise and qualified expert on you, and leave old outmoded belief systems and conditioning behind. You are on the planet to walk your own path, as your own distinctive and glorious flavour of Source energy. ~Archangel Gabriel
