Decisions:

today I will make no decisions by myself, and how freeing I’m finding these words, a declaration of freedom that’s bringing a brand new sense of spontaneity and trust to my life. In chapter 30 of A Course in Miracles we’re given the rules of decisions, and at first this may seem just another practice added to our spiritual list of things we need to do — yet really, once clearly understood and tried with only a little effort of remembering to check within for guidance…

it’s completely freeing.

so it’s with this these words each morning that I free myself of the burden of my own worst decisions. I begin the day with gratitude and then an immediate surrender. My only practice here is to remember that I am guided to the experience of love throughout the day, and if, or rather when, there is forgetfulness, my discomfort with any situation will guide me back to surrendering again. This is where the spontaneity begins — letting go of my every demand for how life should meet my ego.

and simply trusting in the unfolding gift…

a life of love now offers.

~

I love you, Eric
