Close on the heels of my army boots post , I had another positive experience. Here it is with a bit of helpful background.
Earlier in My Simple Identity, I had seen myself as a room with four walls and an open ceiling. I suggested that orienting within that room would be guided by two statements:
- I am an individual and I am in relationship; and
- I live in the present moment and am also in some manner, eternal.
Now what I find is that the room is no longer static. Instead of two statements about orienting in the room, the room itself has become a working compass with four cardinal points, autonomy, relationship, the present, eternity as directional markers.
Presently, I am exploring how this works in light of the impetus provided by My Simple Image. Thus far, I have two observations:
- when I take a small action in any given direction, there is a clarity and a confidence that is almost effortless; and
- when I move in any given direction, there is a tendency for the other three directional arenas to be strengthened simultaneously.
It may be that I will shortly begin (pragmatically, mystically) walking down that street from My Simple Image, army boots on, long hair and outer coat flowing as I move.
I trust it will be a Simple Matter when I do.
