365 Pause Practices Day 233

 

What a great way to start my day!

Shared by Lisa

The other day I was at a stop light where there was a person with a sign. “Oh boy,
here we go.” I thought. “Just another person trying to get something for nothing.
You look young and strong – get a job!”

Well, that certainly was my cubicle mind talking – nothing loving there!

As the young man turned, his sign simply said he would work for food
and needed help. When I read his sign my Inspired Self shouted,
“OFFER HIM AN ORANGE – YOU HAVE TWO!!” 
I rolled down the window and offered him an orange.

His response was, “Oh! An orange! I would LOVE an orange!” Not only
did my Inspired Self move me to share both of my oranges – but my ENTIRE lunch!
As I was handing the lunch over to him, my cubicle self started to protest. Calmly
and Peacefully, my Inspired Self reassured me that I could buy lunch later.

By Stepping Aside and Following the Inspiration given to me I was
able to help someone I didn’t know and extend LOVE to them.
In turn, I also received LOVE through my volunteering to
practice the Pause Practice while driving to work.

THERE IS NO PLACE INSPIRATION IS NOT!

This comes into our awareness as we are willing to Pay Attention.
THERE IS NO PLACE INSPIRATION IS NOT!
This comes into our awareness when we
share INSPIRATION One–to–One.

Now, this all sounds nice and cozy and all, but I guess you have noticed
by now that sharing the air, water and space seems a lot easier than
sharing INSPIRATION,
otherwise, wouldn’t we now have more peace-filled relationships?

What happens in the cubicle is that even though we see one another, after all,
we’re everywhere, it seems we move about as if we are alone;
This is the result of the cubicle mindset.

It is precisely this squared off, locked up, and shacked up with nobody mindset
that leads us to not even notice that we are not alone, we are actually

IN RELATIONSHIP TO EACH OTHER!
