I thought my inner GPS was sending me on my way to a roaring party, and in contrast I have found myself very busy avoiding all sorts of crazy potholes, unexpected obstacles, old patterns and thorns on my path, having to focus carefully on where I put my little feet. I suddenly landed in the wrong film, 'When Harry met Sally' turned into 'Apocalypse Now' and I had to regroup really quickly. Luckily this lady has a bit of a warrior spirit behind the pussycat facade and I am negotiating the way just fine. Don't know what happened to the GPS, alias my unfailing intuition, but clearly a little blip in the system. Will let you know once I hit the freeway again! As they say, 'all roads lead to the same party'.
A friend sent me an email last night which reminded me so much of this mindblowing quote from The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying which I immediately would like to share. It will keep you going till I am back in full swing.
1) I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost... I am hopeless.
It isn't my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.
2) I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don't see it.
I fall in again.
I can't believe I am in the same place.
But it isn't my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.
3) I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it is there.
I still fall in...it is a habit.
My eyes are open
I know where I am.
It is my fault.
I get out immediately.
4) I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.
5) I walk down another street.
Wishing you all to leapfrog over the holes of your old habits and find a beautiful new road to explore.
