Surrendering to Life

Inspired to share this after a conversation with a friend this morning when we spoke about fears that may prevent to fully live the life of our soul's movement.

Surrendering to Life.
This is my biggest Joy and also the Red Line of my Tantra work.

Life that expresses itself through me as an impulse, as a desire, as a need, as a longing, as an inspiration, as beauty, as whatever else that wants to flow through me at any given moment.

Some people say that they can't afford following their soul's movement because of lack of money, or time, or family commitments.

Inside of me it lives as: "Who am I not to follow this movement?" This is the only thing that is real. The rest is a projected reality packed in concepts and ideas.

"What does Life want from me?"

This life's movement often surprises me with the unexpected twists, which definitely bypass the Known.

Another word I call it is Authenticity. Deep authenticity that is connected to the deepest space in you from where your impulse arises.

For example, I can not adhere to a concept of Relationship, or Friendship, or any other concept. Even if I really wanted to, it just no longer makes sense.

So, surrendering to life may seem very irresponsible or sometimes illogical if you look from a particular concept of "how things should be".

For instance, I reach out to my friends when I feel an authentic impulse, not because they have a birthday. And if there is no impulse, then even on their birthday I will most probably not send anything. Not because I don't like them any more, but simply because there is no authentic energy movement in their direction. And oh boy, I also don't want to receive any birthday wishes that come from that space of "let's be nice and send Alexa a message".๐Ÿ˜„

Same about relationship. I express what's true for me not trying to please or fit into some kind of a role, or insist that it's an absolute truth. And if I recognize that I am living a particular pattern, it's usually such a grateful moment of revelation that it brightens my whole being with a possibility to release even more of that which is not truly alive in the moment.

Same about anything... work, money, co-creation. I sense what's true for me and express it as such and trust that whatever has a potential to grow will grow, and whatever has no energy to grow will eventually stop. No need to push for anything. Only joyfully following the inner movement that is true.

No plan, no strategy, no vision, unless they arise naturally.

This Life that speaks and expresses itself through me in various colors, shapes and forms, is not disconnected from what we call the "outside". It's all one movement. And it passes through my and your unique constellations and finds its unique expression.

"Who am I to stop it?"

In Tantra, this life movement is called Goddess.
