Mary O’Malley – Imagine a beautiful meadow where there is a rainbow of wildflowers, along with the heart-opening music of birds. The smells of the heather and the pristine beauty of the surrounding mountains all bring forth a deep sense of peace. In this meadow, everything is energy, everything flows and is at peace.
The same is true for you. You may have no memories of this kind of well-being but there was a time when you were very young where there were no thoughts in your head. Past and future had no meaning for you, so this moment was all there was. Because you weren’t searching for a better state, you were open to it – all of it – and life was okay exactly as it was.
Mary O’Malley – My life seems to be filled with cancer lately. I have been diagnosed with a rare form of blood cancer, and I have a couple of friends who are also working with cancer. Needless to say, it is very intense, not only for those with cancer, but also their families and friends who walk the journey alongside them. Yes, it is a fierce process, but I also experience it as a benevolent process.
Mary O’Malley – If you could watch the storyteller in your head that talks all day long, rather than identifying with it, you would see that it truly believes it has to do life and do it right – even being in the now! So it plans, judges, fixes, trying to get rid of what it doesn’t like and get to what it does. As you step back and watch all of the busyness, you can see clearly it is simply struggle. And that struggle cuts you off from being fully alive.
The Angels – We wish to be very loving with you today as we address a sensitive topic– one that if properly understood can grant you great freedom and grace, and this is the subject of “control.”
The Angels – You don’t have to struggle with your lives. You can relax, breathe and trust that the power which creates you, also guides you. To the degree that you surrender to your own hearts in each moment, you are being guided. To the degree that you resist your authentic self, you feel exhausted, stuck or in pain.
