“Let nothing perturb you, nothing frighten you. All things pass. God does not change. Patience achieves everything.” – St Teresa of Ávila
I know that I need to be reminded of this often because it is easy for me to lose perspective. It is easy for me to lose sight of the big picture.
Today we tap to keep things in perspective which will keep fear at bay.
Let Nothing Frighten You
(audio 3m17s)
There’s a part of me that’s frantic…There’s a part of me that’s overwhelmed…There’s a part of me that’s quickly moving through the day…Worried about what will happen next…Worried about what is to come…Worried about who is going to overwhelm me…Worried about what is going to overwhelm me…And as frantic as my life is…Moment to moment…Day to day…In the big picture…Things are calm…Things are smooth….When I look in the big picture…The frantic up and down…Flattens out…Over time all is well…Over time all is good…I give myself permission…To see the big picture…To have patience with myself…To have patience with time…I give myself permission…To be easy with myself…To be easy with time…There is no rush…To be who I am…Because I’m already there…There is no rush…To get to this moment…Because I am already here…I give myself permission to be easy…I give myself permission to be easy with myself…I give myself permission to be in this time…In this moment…Patient and gentle.
I live in the big picture and this reminds me that there’s still unhelpful emotions I’m ignoring or avoiding around the overwhelm which is there! Just today I DECIDED to do something that’ll begin to ease up that negative energy. Thanks for the reminder Gene.
good stuff! just what I needed!
