Interruptions. Intrusions.
Distractions. The unexpected…will happen. It
always does. Yet we respond as if it
shouldn’t. That the disruption is an
insult to our being. As if we are
assaulted, pushed, or pulled out of our place of comfort or knowing. We may think, “How dare you?” or “Why
me?” And yet, it will happen again and
again. We know life is change, life is
moving, and always shifting.
And we also know that
stability is enhanced with flexibility.
Ask an engineer or an architect.
Like a bridge or building, we are stronger when we are flexible and
practice allowance. We are stronger when
we allow interruptions to our expectations and experience. We are stronger with allowance and when we
decide with love how to respond…how to be.
Each time there is the unexpected,
the interruption or the irritation, we can practice allowance. We can allow an opportunity to strengthen and
possibly to discover something incredible about ourselves and others.
