Fucking Amy, good friends delivering divine messages

I absolutely forgot that I'm a creator.  I didn't even really see myself that way (even though I bang out 3 meals a day everyday, bake bread, etc.) -- it seemed like mom stuff and not creative at all.  I was doing the ho-hum of daily life.

Things have shifted a lot recently.  I've taken my mediation practice very seriously (which really means pausing joyfully, looking forward to it rather than treating mediation as another chore) -- the result of workshops with my teacher and our community energy.  Basically, the more you Pause, the more you get divine messages.  I guess we are always receiving divine messages, but now I can actually feel and receive them (Spirit makes you work for it, I gotta Pause and tune in everyday because this energy is whispy and elusive; totally unlike muscle memory).

Messages started to pour in on the daily.  

"Every moment is sacred." I get to make lunch.  I get to mother 4 kids.  I get to go to the grocery store.  Subtle and powerful, just a mind a shift. One of our reiki precepts is "work diligently" -- that really means, "look, you're gonna have to do this thing right now that you don't wanna do, so find a way to get your groove on, make it as fun as you can, no attachment to the outcome). 

I got a text message from Amy (one of my besties and moms from our beloved preschool in Hollywood).  I could feel the weight of the text.  This was a direct message from God and I knew it.  I didn't open her text message.  I didn't want to read it.  I was so annoyed with her. "That fucking bitch, she had to text me."  But I wasn't really mad, I knew that I was being asked to do something and reacted like a petulant child.  



I decided to be obedient.  I started up this blog and oh my goodness -- I love writing so much.  I know that chat GPT is all the rage, so wonderful and helpful, but it's different when you are just writing straight from inside of you.  I found an old YouTube channel that I had created and started adding some no cut shorts from daily living and creating!!! It's fun to play!!!!! I am totally a creator (we all are, we just forget).  If you are reading this blog, I'm here to remind you friend, 

As I stepped forward on my creating path, I realized that I am 100 percent a self-righteous asshat.  I wouldn't have thought I'm self-righteous but I am and I caught myself hearing my inner narrator at a sound bath last night  This lovely woman came as herself, admitting that she was new and unprepared, yet she was soooo excited to share what she learned with all of us.  She mentioned feeling unworthy and I rolled my eyes (not that anyone could see or tell because I'm so good at play acting and wearing polite societal masks).  I was triggered because she was so real!!!! I sat in meditation while she played and asked God for help. 

"It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me"

Yes, Taylor, it's me, I'm the problem.  I'm the snake eating its tail.
I often feel unworthy, get self righteous and then withhold my love.   I'm grateful that I caught all of this inner skullduggery, I could acknowledge, ask God for help and pivot.  As I recognized the tape loop, all I could feel was love and awe for this brilliant woman leading us on a sound journey and gratitude to be in a circle of like minded women in our small community. At the end of the night, we all played singing bowls and instruments together and because I stopped withholding -- magic happened --and I started to chant (Om Gan Ganpataye Namah), and we made the most beautiful sounds together as a circle of women.  

Every moment is sacred. Magic can happen in a moment.  God is good.
