I’m finding it sort of nice that it’s raining. Gives me a little extra time to reflect on things in a slightly different, more subtle and subdued energy than the typical sunny Los Angeles days.
I’ve spent a lot of time being lately. Just being. This week I’m not worrying about anything anymore. Not like last week where there was a slight undercurrent of angst or anxiousness at the beginning for a few days. This week, that’s not there.
Yesterday I had the glorious opportunity to sell about 1/3 of my CD collection. I had recently decided to sell the whole thing cause there’s no room for it in my 3 remaining bags. I still need to whittle down my files a bit more and find a efficient way to carry them with me. But all in due time.
Selling the CDs was fun. A dance friend came over and we previewed alot of the music on my iTunes, since I had imported all the CDs into my computer. It was fun to hear alot of my music again in a more deliberate way. I often listen to my iPod when I’m out on LA public transit, but not much at home. I think that comes from habits with my old computer where it was hard to run too many intensive programs at once. And also, I’m on WoW and skype alot these days. So not alot of space for listening to tunes as well.
So it was nice. So was the $90 for roughly 50 CDs!
Other than play time and fun, sleeping and eating, my thoughts are often of a curious, light-hearted nature concerning where I’ll be living next. I can feel how wonderful it is and that it’s an upgrade from where I am now. Definitely by the ocean. And I’m looking forward to living in Santa Monica.
My thoughts also turn to how my work in the world will unfold. I’ve recently come to the conclusion — with some guidance toward this notion — that I am my work in the world. I don’t DO my work in the world, I AM my work in the world. I still don’t completely get this, nor what to do with it exactly. But my other recent awareness about saying “I’m a joy and freedom seeker!” when people ask “What do you do?” seems to coincide with this quite well.
I was also very moved by the Love Project video from Starbucks, of the people from 150+ different countries all singing the amazing Beetles song “All You Need Is Love”. I felt powerfully compelled to travel the world channeling the message of love, freedom, joy and abundance.
I still don’t know how or when.
Thankfully, the hows, whos, whats, wheres, whens and whys are not distracting me from the moment. Dr. Peebles has made it very clear that right now we are only being given the very next step to consider, not the entire big picture — one marble in our hand, versus the whole bag.
So I continue to pursue joy, freedom and fun, while staying excitedly open to see what unfolds for me. I trust that all is being divinely cared for and managed.
There really IS something to that sond, “All You Need Is Love”. It really can be as simple as being in the moment, loving powerfully and allowing things to be easy. Easy. Easy Breezy.
I like that.
P.S. The rest of my CDs are still for sale for an average of $2 per CD. And also, I am still looking for a house sit starting Feb 1st.
