Sweet Surrender…
Focus…
This morning on my bike (Airdyne) this was my view. The water droplets became my focus. In the discipline of yoga we strive to focus. My eyes begin the process of focusing. Then my breath and my body follow. Hopefully my yoga sequence becomes a body, mind and spirit exercise or discipline of focusing on the here and now. Living in the moment.
Trying to carry this yoga discipline into my life in general is a moment to moment task. If I continue to let go and be in the moment, life unfolds as it is supposed to. When I try to control my environment, eventually chaos and discomfort result. It is a ‘sweet surrender’ as John Denver sings about. Surrendering by Letting Go and Letting God show the Way. This song became an anthem to me and a favorite biking song. John and I had mutual friends (Bill’s).
Life can be a pleasant trip down a river. Or it can be a struggle against the current. It is a choice.
After all it is once again how we see things. Choosing to focus on the beauty that surrounds me, focusing on that is the True Reality…
