I was meditating the other day, and dropping in, I thought of a mantra about being open to all the good that wants to come. But on the heels of this, the thought popped up to exchange “good” for “blessings.” The idea being, I have a fixed expectation of what “good” looks like and feels like. But, “blessings” to me, feels more open and I’ve often been on the receiving end of blessings in disguise. So, being open to all the “blessings” that want to come, means, to me/ for me, being willing to allow space for a deeper internal conversation/ give permission for a broadening of my perception to that which shows up — particularly those immediately categorized as difficult. In the case of the feelings that lead to the perception of difficulty, absolutely honor that this is how its shown up while, at the same time, being open to any blessings or paths towards blessings that could be connected to it.
