An Ordinary Grace

"It is not the me looking for freedom. It is freedom appearing as a me looking." This from Lisa Lennon on the landing page of her website . Scroll down.....and then enjoy the liquid movement!

I liken current living to schizophrenic episodes one after the other of active remembering and unconscious forgetting. There appears a struggle to keep "the knowing" at the forefront of mind. 1) "Will it ever not feel like work" ?   Like when you decide to actively take over the breathing process....it is labored and generally uncomfortable. Thank goodness attention gets channeled elsewhere so autopilot can once again establish equilibrium. 2) Is autopilot God? 3) Who is working so hard (to remember that what is happening right now is all there is)?  There is no "I" here to manage this daily living, and believe me "I" have looked for a solid me. This is the kicker for us all....the punch in the gut... that it all just happens and any idea of remembering or forgetting is life dancing the dance of you. How frightening! How maddening! How freeing! There is no control over anything... A beautiful example of this dance is a child. Wa
