And The Beat Goes On!


Here we are in this most unbelievable time. I am inspired and flabbergasted by the things I see and hear.  Years ago, I chose not to participate heavily in the news, for the negativity was not healthy for me. These days the news is everywhere so I am not missing much. I am cautious not to catch the energy of things and take in anger, hatred, fear and panic.

It reminded me of what a guy friend said to me once, after I blasted him about how rude his behavior was. (Not my best expression.) He simply replied something like this, "I messed up. I've done it before, it won't be the last time and the beat goes on." It was the perfect reply for whether he cared or not of what he did, he was moving beyond. I see of the landscape of the world and his words come forward. The beat does go on..,

The sun comes up....the birds chirp....we have life to live. I have chosen to continue living life fully and enjoying every moment that I can, regardless of the world around me. I have my causes, put forth my positive direction towards the things I believe, being an agent of change in peace and continue my optimistic way. There are many times, I thought something was too big to handle, yet I have always made it through.  I have no doubt that we will survive this one as well.

Others may say, "How can you not be upset, worried, offended and involved in all of this. It is our future?" I am involved for I live in the world. I am doing what I see best. It does not involve getting riled up or emotionally charged. It is positive action towards the things I can influence and inspire. I have seen far too much in life than to allow the outside conditions run my inner world and miss out on any speck of deliciousness I can find. Life is too short to give my life force to fear, panic or anger. I don't want to use my powerful imagination to create doom and gloom either. I see it all going in the highest good, whatever that is.

We can chose to get thrown off course of our loving way, get side tracked by insane behavior of others, or we could just continue on finding joy and purpose as the larger picture plays out. I am all for action in the right direction if I see any ideas that involve solid action. But to just get all emotionally distraught over things that I see can't last long is senseless to me.

I am a educator, minister and light worker. We find ourselves in all kinds of outrageous situations and remain calm, loving and clear. I will continue forward that way and educate on the Art of Relaxation, Woman's Health, the Eastern Arts and the healing classes at The Room at Meadowbrook. These things help and support humanity to live rich lives through whatever occurs. This mission is most important at this time. I will collaborate, educate and get involved in peaceful ways to add to the our rights.

Lets all remember that daily life is still going onward. We can still smile at others, lend a helping hand, inspire joy and live our lives. We can cook meals in cheerfulness so our food is healthy and healing, create new connection and do what we were doing. The beat does go on and so should we. We can forgive ourselves and others at the dawn of the day and move forward with peace in our heart, ready to jump in and add unto a better world.

This is my nature. This is how I see the most positive direction for myself. This is how I must move in the chaos so I have health, happiness and participate fully in the moments I live. It is not healthy to be in fear, panic or anger for too long. I empower woman to have greater health and personal power and these emotions don't create that.  My work is the yoga of living, finding presence when I can, being graceful and sharing support. I know of no studies or situations where feeling like a victim, shouting or reacting emotionally has worked for us to create power or change.

You see by how my friend reacted to my outburst....
"and the beat goes on......."

So the story continues.....
and I go forward....
seeking what joy, peace and happiness I can find.

You get to chose what works best for you!
