I was speaking about devotion today at Unity. I love this topic. It’s all about wholehearted and single-minded devotion to whatever idea we want or rather choose to manifest/experience in our lives.
I was so scattered in my focus for the first half of my life that I can truly appreciate how wonderful it is to have clear focus and direction and dedication to my vision/intention.
For me it is now about what I choose to be rather than have; what I choose to give from my heart and soul rather than what I can get. This is not how I lived much of my life, there was always a ‘getting’ involved just below the surface if it wasn’t completely conscious. It kind of tainted everything I did somehow even when I had the best of intentions.
I didn’t understand or embrace who or what I was in the past, I bought into all the fears, doubts, guilt and limited ideas. I did so many things in a half-hearted way and of course did not find satisfaction; I was always hanging on to a hold card, just in case.
That is the human condition, I’m no better or worse than anyone, we all have our things to deal with but what is important now is that there is a way through, there is light at the end of the tunnel. It’s having a vision and devotion to it that lights the way. No more half-heartedness, I am in life with my whole heart and soul; still lots of challenges but that too is welcome, and I am grateful.
Namaste
