The more awake you are for life the more it cooperates with you. This doesn’t mean everything will be as you want it, but what happens is the opportunity for there to be cooperation increases…
Life will occur whether you are awake to see what is happening or not. What an awakening affords a person is the opportunity for a different reaction to what arises and thus a different outcome. It’s a given that what arises arises, there’s no much that can be done in that regard, but with how it affects has presents different opportunities. Years ago there weren’t many opportunities for my reactions to be different. They were all based in a very limiting self serving perspective; this was just the way I was conditioned. I wouldn’t have allowed anyone to do half of the things I did to myself, but yet because I didn’t know any better lo and behold destructive reactions were normal for me. Without an awakening of the conditioning in place the opportunity for anything to be different was non existent…
Although today life is still life and what arises, arises, without the self serving view not being as prevalent as it once was, it has opened up so many more opportunities in my life. What’s truly beautiful about this is my destructive reactions are less and less; on their own. Being aware of the way you react to what happens is where opportunities to be different arise from. When you’re stuck in one view, you‘re limited to that view and the opportunity of reaching your full potential is iffy at best. The more you’re in harmony with life the more life cooperates with you. This doesn’t mean everything will be perfect or go the way you think it should, but the imperfections (only because of a self serving view) won’t limit your opportunities…
The more we grasp for answers outside ourselves the more in the grasp of fear we are. When we look outside, its only because we are fearful of what we might find inside.
