"Sky Being", by Bettina
Things seem
to be pretty much out of control right now in my life. It’s not that
crazy-frenzy-type-out-of-control, but more of a wide-open-space-out-of-control.
I cannot even imagine what the next three months will be like. I have no
idea what I am going to create. Nothing seems solid, and anything seems
possible.
Do you have
that in your universe too? It could be easy to go into freak-out about that.
Yet, what if, instead, we were in wonder? What that means is to not make this
space, the out-of-control-space, wrong. What if it is the mind freaking out,
desperately trying to figure it out, to decide and conclude? What if, at this
point, our minds don’t work any more? I ask “Is this part of the change I have
been asking for?” And the answer is “Yes!”.
Another
wonderful tool to use is “What’s right about this I’m not getting?” I just
introduced this tool, this question, in a class yesterday, and it opened space
for everyone, and joy was there, and excitement. What if we don’t make the
un-solidity wrong? When I ask this question, my entire universe opens up. There
is only wide open space. There is infinite possibility. So, with that space, I
keep asking questions. Such as “What would I like to create now?”, or “What can
I create that will be so much fun and such a contribution to consciousness and
to the earth?”
Guess what,
the space opens further and there is no freak-out!
Now, I
wonder, what if we all have opened a door to a new possibility for being on the
planet? And, more even, what if we all have stepped through that door into wide
open space of infinite possibility? There is no solidity. Solidity exists where
we have made something solid, where we have decided what has to be, what better
be, what must be. Where we have concluded from past experience, which is always
finite. What if there is no past? Do you also get the sense of freshness and
excitement right now? What CAN we create from here? What would you like your
life to be like? You as infinite being, yes YOU, what would you like to create?
What vision do YOU have of a possibility for being on the planet that includes
all, that includes you, that includes the earth? For a sustainable future on
the planet?
And what if
this knowing of a future is not solid, as it is not yet? The ‘whispers from the
future’ are like a feather touch. A breeze. Light and motion. What if the wide
open space is an invitation for us all to create something different? Where we
don’t lock the energy into a conclusion, an outcome, a result? Instead we stay
in question. “What do I do with this?” or “What can I create here that I have
never created?” “What else is possible now that I have never considered? And “What
can I choose today that I have never chosen?”
What does
this create for you? For me, there is such joy of possibility here! There are
infinite colors!
One of the
things I’m really good at and have great fun with is painting. And I have
always wondered what more colors are available that I haven’t seen yet, touched
yet, bathed in, enthused about, played with, feathered, danced, laughed with,
explored, enjoyed, sung with, breathed in, exhaled, marveled, mused, birthed?
Oh, my
friends, what if we all say yes to the invitation to a dance beyond this
reality, and we composed the "Infinite Greatness of Living" Symphony?
Are you willing to spread your wings and fly?
