Speaking from Stillness is a fun series transcribing unscripted thoughts while on morning dog walks in my jungle valley. I walk in stillness, then allow whatever arises to get recorded and transcribed. I try to keep them short. The transcript is lightly edited for clarity.
This Existence is Fabulous when you wake up covered in dogs.
Three dogs squished up against you, an expansion and an extension of Love.
Love coming from them to me, content, secure, saying, ‘If I’m going to be somewhere, it’s right there.’ Love coming from me to them, a warmth radiating in both directions, and a sense of safety and stillness and sharing.
In these days, it does feel like the boundaries of this One have expanded.
The five circling balls of fur, who are part of me, who are of me, as we meander the blossoming garden paths of the valley, searching for water and adventure, and a good place to sip cacao.
It’s interesting how altercations do arise and do appear, when it’s time to protect part of the puppy family. There is no question, there is only action, as aggressive as is required. When it’s time to reprimand one of the family for actions unbecoming, the same.
Insults, aggressive actions towards the extensions of my Love Bubble, cause some of my most aggressive-intent. The identity-creation-mechanism extends to, ‘They are part of my identity’…as I suppose any family is.
In those moments when your mind races, and your heart beats faster, and you want retribution, and that aggressive-response is repeated and ruminated on, in case that situation arises again…
That’s energy. That’s emotion.
The trick is…how fast can you feel it and sense it, and see the mechanism working.
And then hit the off-switch. And smile.
And realize the story is, My puppies are fine. I am fine. We rectified the situation.
The others have the problem. We deal with ours in a most calm and respectful way. And knowing that we will…again…is enough to satisfy the rage-mechanism of the moment.
And a great little joy (appears) over the top.
Don’t despair over the past. Don’t micromanage the future.
Respect what you have, in The Moment.
And Enjoy Every Moment…
When you wake up in the Puppy Love Bubble.
