Our 8th anniversary. Balance between duty and pleasure;
It never fails; Transmuting the energy
Hello and welcome to the June 2000 issue of Horizons Magazine. We're celebrating
our 8th anniversary this month and I want to officially welcome Shannon Burnett to the
Horizons family! I met Shannon as she was promoting the firewalk in April and was surprised and delighted when she offered to do advertising sales. She is a beautiful soul and truly a joy to work with. I look forward to a long relationship with this wonderful new friend.
BALANCE BETWEEN DUTY AND PLEASURE
So what's been going on in my life the last few weeks? Well, before Shannon showed up, I was feeling a little overloaded with work, time pressures, deadlines, yet I know that as I focus on not having enough time, the time slips quickly away. So tough sometimes to remember that my time will free up as I envision myself feeling free, feeling aided, feeling guided; so tough to take the time to goof off with a friend while there's piles of work yet to be done.
IT NEVER FAILS
Yet without fail, if I can remember to stop and take a break when I'm the most rushed, I can relieve a lot of the tension and come back into balance. If I can make myself step out of the office and into the van and go off on a pleasure jaunt, whether it's for 2 hours or 2 days, I always come back to a desk that's amazingly not as cluttered with work as I thought it was.
TRANSMUTING THE ENERGY
When I remember to stop and ask myself - "okay, what am I vibrating in harmony with right now?" Then I remember that I'm vibrating in harmony with feeling rushed, I'm vibrating in harmony with feeling pressured, I'm vibrating in harmony with being grumpy. Hmmm, so what am I feeling? I'm feeling rushed, I'm feeling frantic, I'm feeling grumpy. So what am I oozing out into the Universe? Frantic grumpiness. Is that what I want my message to the world to be? No. What is my message to the world? Love life and love each other and share peace and comfort and joy forever. So how would I feel if I loved life and loved everyone and felt peace and comfort and joy forever? Hmmm, feels pretty good, it's making me smile, my heart feels full just thinking about that. Now thinking on that thought for just a few more moments and what I've just done is transmuted the unwanted vibration. Since I've changed my vibration (relative to that subject,) I've eased up on my resistance, so I instantly feel less rushed, less frantic and less grumpy. Now that's magic ~ that's transmutation. This is better than turning tin to gold!
I DON'T NEED HELP, I JUST NEED A NEW ATTITUDE
My favorite Whine Of The Day was often "I need more help!" yet when you get right down to it, all I need to do is change my perception of whatever I'm whining about, and I'll realize I have plenty of time to do all that needs to be done. And I really do. As soon as I'm feeling pressured, I pull out my List Of Reasons Why I Love What I Do and I re-read it and I remember it and I add to my list each day, and before you know it, I've changed my perception and am once again loving my job and having plenty of time to do all that needs to be done!
