I ended up spending most of my day just doing whatever the heck I wanted to do AND I do not feel one iota of guilt. Went for a walk around Lost Lagoon and got to commune with all the new little ducklings, goslings and one baby swan. She is so beautiful and fluffy. Her Mama was making sure that no big birds got too close and, as for the few dogs that were also enjoying the day, she promptly made sure that they stayed far away from the edge of the water with all her hissing and feather fluffing. All the while the little baby was simply enjoying herself as she learned to go forward and back, hurrying up to catch up with Mama and delighting in just being alive. We could learn a lot from Mother Nature.
The weather had not been too hot but, by the time my wander around the Lagoon was complete, the beach was calling so, since I was already being true to my self, I just hurriedly put on my suntan lotion, my bikini and headed to the sand for a short while. Ran into some friends and just lay in the warmth and chatted for a little over an hour. Feeling very relaxed and ready to welcome my meditation group in a short while.
How often do we force ourselves to do things when our heart and soul are not engaged? It always takes twice as long and most often we find that we have to redo all that we attempted to do when not in the flow. I talk about being in the flow a lot lately as I find that when I do just go with the flow of the day, all things that need attending to get done with a minimum of stress and I have more energy to get other things accomplished that I would not normally have the energy nor the inclination to even consider.
So for today, I enjoyed my time of being in the flow and now I still have a lot of energy left to ensure that my meditation participants get the fullness of me.........mind, body and spirit.
I hope that you also had a day dedicated to you in whatever small way you could and let the guilt go. It is simply a wasted emotion.
Namaste
