for so many years I’ve been telling myself that I will be happy once...
...once I move to San Francisco
...once I team up with my dream girl
...once I get a job at Google
...once I have $100,000 in savings
Today, for the first time ever, I started to grok that adage: "what if I already have everything I desire in this very moment, and I simply haven't been able to see it?"
I've been encouraging students, family, friends and lovers to 'embrace the now' for years now... in fact, I've done a pretty good job of it myself, neatly annihilating both past and future in the process. Now I'm taking those acts to graduate level.
This was partially triggered by a dinner conversation with my dad and kids the other night. My dad was making some comment about obesity, and I yelled out: "Dad, don't you get what I DO?!?! I teach people to embody health, to use their bodies to maximum capacity... I throw people high up in the air!" And in that moment, I felt: that's the strongest statement of my Id, of my purpose, that I've made in a long time. And I also realised in that moment: I didn't make a single mention of software, or design, or videogames in that statement.
Let the meditation begin. Let the manifestation begin. Let the thoughts stew.
Let us see what spiritual harvest Thanksgiving produces.
