Up, Up, and Away

Two men were walking in a field when a bull charged them. One man scampered up a tree while the other stood defiantly in the bull's path. "Get up here, you idiot!" called the man in the branches. "The Lord will protect me!" retorted the other man. "No! Get up here, you idiot!" the other screamed again just at the very moment the bull butted the man on the ground, tossing him like a rag doll into the air and the trotted off triumphantly. The friend scampered down from the tree to help his bruised friend. "I thought for sure the Lord would help me!" complained the injured man. "He tried," answered his friend. "Didn't you hear Him calling you from the tree?"

What is calling us? How are we being urged, perhaps again and again, to take that step, make that connection, move out of our comfort zone, try something new, dare to risk, or just simply show up and share our gifts and talents in new ways? And maybe we can hear that call or that urge, but we stand in place defiantly with our excuses as armor, thinking those excuses will save us.

And some of us refuse to take any new action until our current situation either gets so painful or something radical happens that forces us to move. And in those situations we don't find ourselves in the UP position, which I'm defining U.P. as 'Understanding Principle.'

When we 'Understand Principle,' (and I mean really 'Understand Principle), then we can soar into our highest purpose, our most amazing self, and move away from our old and limiting beliefs. What have you wanted to do or start that you've been putting off? It's time to move UP and live it UP and not get stuck in the quicksand of excuses. Up, up, and away!

Would you like to fly in a beautiful balloon of possibilities, joy, opulence, abundance, enthusiasm, health, vitality, and opportunities? Yeah, I thought so!

Wisdom from Ernest Holmes
Every person is the cause of their own experience, whether they know it or not. We are all carrying the negative experiences of our past into the future merely because we have not disconnected them from our minds. If we are creating a negative future it is because we have not changed our thought about it.
