Expecting Nothing
It is a fine line of balance to create your reality and
remain detached. You are a being of
creativity, thus all that you do, even in the silence of your meditation is a
seeking, a creating. You seek that core
of peace, the peace that passes all understanding. It is exciting and palpable. You seek it as you meditate, you seek it as
you relate with others through intimacy, business and family. You seek it as you create art, create a
wardrobe, create a living space, create a charity, create a goal – all the
while creating a new you, living in a new world that has changed from the new
vibration of you. You create Life. How then,
with all that creation, do you Expect Nothing?
It seems so opposite.
Nothing is not
just nothing. In this inclusive universal experience, it is a potential of
All, yet unformed. It is the equivalent of everything,
as one end of the perspective is everything, it’s opposite nothing. The no mind of Buddha led to the inclusive
mind of All. It is the integration of
All through the opening, allowing and receiving of the yet unknown –
potential. As you open to potential
rather than limiting your experience to the control of expectation, you open to
a flow of potential not previously available in the restricted flow of
control. Your creative work is the constant balance of flow such that limitation
becomes a freedom and each new experience of freedom leads to new parameters of
limitation that serves growth. From
one perspective your planet is limited by the locked orbit to the sun, yet
those parameters provide the environmental structure that supports life within
a certain framework. Within that
framework, life changes and the cycle continues, spiraling to a new experience
again and again. Expecting Nothing is
the challenge of looking past the limitations and seeing the freedom as you
push past a structure that was, into a form that is becoming that which it is.
The paradox of Expecting Nothing is that the potential of
everything is within it. You are merely
opening to that full potential. As you
expect joy, excitement, love, peace, creativity; you may experience the
opposite, but in the opening to allow the flow of opposites, you incorporate
All into you. To experience the opposite
of joy and Expect Nothing, you release your grip on the opposite emotion and
flow through the experience stronger, wiser and more able to experience that
which you seek. Your perspective is now
broader, deeper and more Wholistic. Your
compassion is now more resilient. Your
fear is dissolved. Your experience has
broadened your Being. You, like the
universe, have become inclusive in nature.
Seeking Life and more Life through its many facets of potential.
