I’m Having So Much Fun – A Lesson in FREEDOM
Yesterday I went for a New Year’s Day walk through my local park. The sun was shining and the temp was a balmy 50 something degrees which was such a gift for January in New England!
As I walked, I prayed for freedom from my own self-limiting thoughts. I prayed for my complete awakening to the truth of who I am – the beloved child of God; holy, whole and at one with God and everyone.
On my way out of the park, I ran into my next door neighbors who stood at the base of a snowy hill watching their two grown daughters and their six precious granddaughters sledding and snow tubing down the slope.
As I stood there watching, I became filled with an experience of pure bliss and in that holy moment I knew this was His answer to my prayer. I was totally at one with the joy and love of that beautiful family.
It was such a simple lesson in the power of intention and deciding what I want to experience. I chose the peace and love of God and that is what I saw before me.
As I turned to leave the park, one of the little girls stood at the top of the hill and shouted at the top of her lungs, “I’M HAVING SO MUCH FUN!” I cracked up laughing at the sheer genius of that statement and once again I knew that I just got another answer to that prayer for freedom and in that moment I WAS FREE!
Try staying in worry, fear, anger and depression while proclaiming “I’M HAVING SO MUCH FUN!” You can’t. Go ahead, try it! What have you got to lose?
Teachers come in all shapes and sizes and sometimes in our search for Obi Wan Kanobie-esque gurus, we can miss the little souls on a mission for our healing and salvation.
This year, I resolve to proclaim daily I’M HAVING SO MUCH FUN!!!!
