I had a thought this morning...sure it is seeded and in many others also. It seems to happen that way. I believe it is so we can put our minds together and make sense of it all.

Repitition has been how we learned something. I don't know about you.. I can only speak for myself.. but it seems the rug I usually stand on isn't there. Now...what happens when the rug isn't there... is you go looking for it so you can feel comfortable...at home. It is familiar. So much has changed and is changing it feels really empty. Looking around me it isn't empty. That is when I realized it just may not be familiar. And if it isn't familiar...I hesitate to make it my own and thus I may feel empty because I'm not filling up...I'm just observing. I'm trying to feel at home with something new.

Now...how does this connect to repitition? Perhaps it is being deleted from our programming. Maybe we don't need it anymore. If we are going to be in the now ...we need to feel comfortable with the now. If we are going to be spontaneous creators..moment to moment...repitition loses it's need. It really was there to make something more comfortable and familiar. If something is repeated enough we tend to own it. Maybe even like it but most of all it becomes familiar.

So...taking that into consideration...no more repetitive things...actions...whatever. What if you awoke to a different shape and color mat...moment to moment? What and how does that make me? ...us?...feel? Can we sit down beside that? And feel comfortable? That is quite a shift isn't it? To embrace...completely...without the repitition to make it familiar or to know more about it...right now in the moment. To do that so frequently that it then becomes comfortable. So then repitition is not about the same thing happening again and again...but different things happening again and again?????? So repitition evolves to a new understanding. It is a repeating but not of the same thing.

It will shift us to just being...and being comfortable with that. And if we can accomplish that...we are at home whereever we are. Things..people and places can no longer define us. We are forced to feel ourselves moment to moment.........

It would sort of remind me of our dream state which works from that perception. You can be in a bed and get out into water and swim and think nothing of it...it is acceptable. You can be here and there and everywhere and not have a second thought about it. It is just fine...in fact you really don't stop and ask yourself why one minute you were in a house and now your in another country on a street. Your not even thinking that way. Your just busy observing and feeling.

I'm thinking that as we get comfortable with this....we can go backwards and grab things we like or go forwards and be totally surprised or stay right where we are. We will move in all directions to be filled...and slowly this emptiness we feel will fade as we use our full capacity to embrace the moment..unafraid...uncontroled...unfamiliar...moving..FREELY.

It is a truer state of being and more appropriate to what we are becoming. And that may be the feeling of your foot in one dimension and your head in another. Your foot wants the mat to feel at home and be grounded and your head doesn't give a damn...lets get on with the show. The inner struggle makes us feel empty because you end up no where. You just feel no place. If only the mat were there then I can follow my head....but it doesn't work that way......or does it??? Could we do it with out the familiar mat? All the time? Everyday? LOL
