What Is Available

​A friend (who gave me permission to share this)
recently talked about an experience she had during a 24 hour period of bliss.
All seemed well during those hours.

It was a beautiful day and night. She swam under the moonlit sky.
The stars twinkled. She was fully relaxed as she floated in the water.

And then it all seemed to leave.

She ended her sharing with
“I don’t know what is required, but I do know what is available.”

And I shared with her –
“What if what is required is simply to be available
​to what we know is available?”

And she responded, “I am bad at channeling that gift.”

And I responded, “That’s not the impression that I got when you were sharing.”

And she responded, “Oh …. I see!”

----------------------------------------------------

We may begin our relaxing into ‘what is available’
with the belief that Peace is merely a gift that is outside of us
and only comes to us in moments of grace …

but the more we relax and ‘see’ again and again
what is now available
all beliefs that what we actually are
is somehow separate from
This that is available
fly out the window.

​If what is available is in fact available then it is available now – no exceptions.
