[Thespiritexpress] Poem from yesterday’s group

[Taylor Slevin]

RESISTANCE 

There it is again. 

That old familiar feeling. 

That tightness in the gut. The closing off, shutting down, shrinking like a sea anemone. 
The slow burning, trying to control the uncontrollable. Anxiety rising, frustration broiling, anger at “what is”

“Why me?”  “I can’t do this anymore!”
“When will this end?”

Spiraling down the black rabbit hole I go, screeching the brakes of resistance. Nooooooo 

Then, skidding to a STOP , 
A light flickers. 

I am the one creating my suffering by resisting “what is”. If I am the creator, I am also the destroyer and re-creator. 
Recreator, recreation. En-lighten up. 

Deep breath in….
Deep breath out….

Breathing in I open and allow. 
Breathing out I rest in the hammock
of the Divine with ease. 

I surrender, trust, receive. 

Deep breath in……
Deep breath out…..

I stretch and open like the swan receiving the warm rays of the morning sun. 

I open my heart, saying a wide “YES”
to the Universe. 

“This is how it is right now. “

Acceptance, letting go, allowing. 

“It all belongs. “

I turn my face toward the light of Grace and smile. 

I come home to myself, rooted in the Divine, I shine, knowing I Am. 

🙏✨
