inner presence

Inner presence inner power

We rush past the door of our peaceful inner place, everything else is so engaging, the distractions of the outer world and the dramas of our inner world.  The door into this peaceful place is always open, but we are less inclined to go in,  as it is not attractive or alluring enough to spend time there.

For many, it is only when the outside world gets too much, or the inside world gets too chaotic, that we find ourselves looking for another place to be. It is then that we yearn for the long-ago feeling of peace and ease and innocence of life. 

Those who live a slower life are frequent visitors to their inner peaceful place.

Re-opening the door to the peaceful presence within.

This silent place is always waiting for us. But many of us have spent a lifetime being apart from this inner place, of being overstimulated by the outside world so much so that this inner place has lost its appeal. A bit like a room that has fallen into disuse and disrepair, and that we quickly shut the door on. Not wanting to be reminded of the dull, messy, ignored part of our house.

When we wait until we have no place else to go, it can be a difficult place to be. We will resist that it has come to this, that we don’t seem to have any other place to go, that we are back at the beginning, back in our inner place, seeing all that is wrong and needing so much attention. 

But it is our refuge, and it can once again become our most radiant part.

There is, however, a reconnecting phase to this place. 

The welcome is always there for you, but you will not truly feel it until you humbly acknowledge this deep part of yourself, till you feel deep compassion for yourself and your journey thus far in life. 

Then it will soften and start to feel warm; you will feel the warmest welcome from your most precious companion. You will truly begin to feel like you are deeply at home in your life, and the more acquainted you become with your inner space,  the brighter, warmer, and more vibrant it will feel.

Wishing you the blessing of being fully connected to your beautiful inner place.
