There are two different ways to live life.
Most of us live kind of a mixture of both of them.
The first way is the way that is very highlighted in the West and it's the way of doing.
It's solving life through doing.
You know,
Waking up,
Having a to-do list,
Meeting our obligations,
Doing.
The second way is,
It's more the way of the feminine,
The instinctive feminine and it's the way of being.
It's a lot like pregnancy.
You know,
A woman,
You know,
Allows the action to get herself pregnant but then the pregnancy takes over and she waits and observes and steers her thoughts to thinking about the baby and just gently daydreaming really in lots of ways.
But the pregnancy gets done as a byproduct of her body and her psyche.
So these are two different ways to live and it's possible to live in the way of being and accomplish everything that needs to be accomplished.
It's the way the sages live in the East.
It's the way any wise person lives and it's very much like the pregnant woman which she,
So the way of being has one eye on the inside and one eye on the outside.
You know,
So when I was raising kids I would get up in the morning and give the whole day to the Creator and ask the Creator that everything I needed to do would get done and then I would just kind of flow through my day and what would happen is I'd just be brought to do my tasks.
I wasn't forcing myself or regimenting myself.
It was just that everything got done kind of organically and in a flow.
So when we're in the way of being we turn our psyches to more all that is to the Creator because that's what's really steering this show here on earth and the way of being it's more conscious.
The connection between the Creator or the universe and us is more conscious and it's followed.
In the way of doing it's much more,
You know,
Like the male energy exerts its will on the earth and you know for good reason.
I mean in the old days the men would be keeping the female safe as she raised the kids and providing for the food.
You know it's all it's all good but it's more task oriented.
It's more exerting willpower and force and it's just that I feel we've lost sight of the being aspect so we're really getting caught in this doing to such an extreme and you know my experience lots of people are feeling lost with this and you know the end result is depression really because we end up just burning out with the way of of doing.
You know Joseph Campbell who wrote the you know the hero with a thousand faces said when cultures get so busy that there's no downtime left they fall.
They fall really because nobody's taking care,
Nobody's doing any work nobody's time or taking care of the values or thinking about their lives.
Okay so I just wanted to spell this out because almost as a way of giving permission to turn inside and maybe explore the way of being a little more because I'll tell you you'll be more productive.
I got more productive,
Happier more in the flow.
I mean it can be hair raising sometimes because it's the culture isn't going this way but if enough of us do this you see the culture will go that way.
I mean this is how cultures change.
Okay good luck with it bless your hearts
