Your heart wins out every time!

I am amazed at how my heart always come out on top every time I am going through a mini-crisis.

Recently, with so much going on, I was beginning to shut down, drop balls, not show up for classes, not answer phone calls, blame, etc. And I realized, that the more I add to my plate  the more I become over loaded with fear. The more fear there is, the more I want to shut down. It’s a messy vicious cycle.

For instance, I see all of these things before me that I want to accomplish in my life; Take my singing to the next level, study Sufism and build a successful coaching practice/business helping single guy men who are successful in life but who struggle in love. I also want to write a book, become a well known speaker AND move back to NYC.

And in between those delicious ideas, I rush to fill the cracks with distractions. Over eating, taking too many naps, watching too much television and not making enough money to make ends meet.

Like a dog chasing its tail; round and round I go. For the dog it’s fun. For me? Not so much.

What I realize is, the more I get my heart involved with the Divine, the more centered I become. Allowing the Divine, (God, Buddha, The Earth, Oneness), the LOVE flows endlessly. Like a river that flows through many towns and villages. Each claim it as their own, but it’s all one flowing stream.

Today, I feel more grounded and again, I am closer to my heart. My heart wins out every time if I allow it to. And the funny thing is, these little crisis only last a short time. A couple of days. Seems longer, though. Well, that’s what fear would like me to think.

Today I am grateful for: The Remembrance, my heart, friends, my pets, singing, family and LOVE.

So, what are you doing in your life that is creating distractions and taking you further away from your HEART?
