Evolutionary Tip – Conscious Confusion
There's a lot of conscious confusion "going around" these days, so I thought I would share the following from my most recent newsletter. If you've been feeling this way, you're in really good company! It's part of the shift in consciousness we're all experiencing, and I think it's a good thing :-)
What I call "conscious confusion," Zen Master, Osho, calls "no-thingness," that fertile place where we feel no toe-hold, see no light, and experience disorientation. As uncomfortable as this can be, it’s the place from which all things are possible, if only we may honor our journey, go into the darkness, and await, ever so patiently, the cosmic clarity that's but a breath away. When we hold this space, our lives are bound to change. As needed, engage a trusted friend, coach, or counselor in your process, while holding faith that the place you arrive will set you more firmly on your evolutionary path. Old dreams may make way for grander ones. We may gain insight that our current life patterns need cleansing and repair. We may sense a discord between our heart- and intellectual-wisdom, and the reconciliation will allow for a clearer path to follow. Breathe… and allow for much needed changes to emerge.

Thank you Denise. What you said really speaks to my condition in the last few days:) In my head, I have been holding on to what I thought success meant in building Conscious Community---that it had to look a certain way. People can feel that, so unwittingly I have gotten in my own way. I didn't realize all of the small and incremental ways I have been doing some positive things. I have come to a place of acceptance. I am so grateful to you and all of the other inspiring people who are walking together on this journey.

Richard, I appreciate your words so much. More and more I recognize the need for community in navigating "the shift." What you're creating in Conscious Community is essential to our thrival, indeed! How it will ultimately look, well we'll only know as it magically unfolds. In that unfolding, I have ultimate faith!

Denise, thanks so much for such encouraging and inspiring words that are so timely in my interpersonal evolutionary process. Thank you all for creating this opportunity, and giving to one another, so I/we may receive truth, enlightenment and some peace of mind amidst the conscious confusion that change, and "the shift" invokes. I am already truly grateful to have discovered and become part of our wonderful CC-R community!

we are water
its easy to forget,
we need to flow freely... and yet,
we are taught to hord and dam when fear sets in
and only when I lose can someone else win
to manage for abundance is native at our core
it keeps our water fresh and clean to flow forever more
