I just had an \u2018AH-HA!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The family &#8216;Sunday text&#8217; is about having friends with different ideologies, perhaps not even believing in God. The conversation was well along when I read it. My mind\u2019s response was \u201cI\u2019ve got a friend in Jesus.\u201d It made me look up my blog post of this title to check on the song lyrics I had posted there. I found I posted this on <a href=\"http:\/\/triciabatessmith.com\/index.php\/2014\/05\/11\/may-11-14\/\">5-11-14<\/a>. Of course I read this old post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This happened to be one of my BIG AH-HA days. The post told of my interaction with Jesus, accepting him as my Guru, as well as some other fabulous spiritual tidbits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had the thought that rather than just posting the song\nlyrics that I should post the link to my 5-11-14 blog post in the family text\nthread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I kept going back and forth in my mind. I had also just read\nmy conversation of last week and saw this as an opportunity to be vulnerable. I\nstill felt scared. Then, I thought \u201cI know what will happen, a few will look\nand comment on how good it is \u2026 others will be quiet\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ah-ha came in the realization that I am thinking about\nme, what my experience will be. I am not getting that reaching out to others is\nnot about me! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why do I feel I want to share this blog? There is Great\nwisdom in it from TD Jakes and Marianne Williamson. I also had an amazing\nexperience (boost to the ego) and some pretty good insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Is it not a benefit to\nothers to see the documentation of your experience so that they get validation\nof their own<\/em> (just as I received many times as written on 5-11-14 about the\nsong \u201cI believe I can fly\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Yes, just the same.\nYou\u2019re not sharing is blocking, restricting the flow of light through your\ntribe.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I just tried to send the link to the page \u2013 wimped out but\nnow I\u2019m mad at myself re-reading about blocking the flow. I know I need to let\nit go. Let go of the need to control the outcome!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>How could you possibly\nknow the outcome? It\u2019s just seeds you have nothing to do with the nurturing and\ncultivation of. Its work for the Other and the fruit will be theirs. This is\nyour cultivation work for your own blossoming and later fruit.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am so afraid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Of what? Let it go.\nPass along the gifts. They are not meant to be held onto. Trouble if you do. &nbsp;Light\/Love energy needs to flow.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve seen a couple references to spontaneous combustion this\nweek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>It happens.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am trying to make lite of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Light is not lite. It\ncan move mountains \u2013 in your reality. Let it flow. The lessons are not yours to\nkeep.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why is it not enough to have written it and posted it on the\nblog for Others to find in their time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>There are those who\nseek; those who are guided who will find. But what of YOUR guidance today? What\nof the lesson that it\u2019s there to share with the Other who wants answers.\nAh-ha\u2019s that your experience can provide?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I just need to do it, but I don\u2019t want to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>How is this future of\nyour\u2019s supposed to happen? You need to enter the arena. Everything doesn\u2019t have\nto be perfect, that is your perception of what is there and not \u2018the thing\u2019\nthat the Other will take from it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Me, me, me!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ok, I did it. I have to leave the room now to escape and\nhide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Sit. It\u2019s out there &#8211; No\nlonger yours. Do you think Marianne Williamson goes through life thinking and\nworrying about her famous quote or any of her works are received by\nindividuals? Brene\u2019, you quoted her several times last week. Do you think she\nreally gets how each thing she introduces is received by individuals? All are\njust seeds to be sown. Be like Johnny Appleseed and move on, don\u2019t look back,\nit is not for you.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you. I feel very blessed right now. (weepy.)
