Abundance and Sunflowers

Category: Musings by Sharon

Hello Everyone. Welcome Back to my TPC Blog.

I was at a meditation class the other day and we were doing a meditation on manifesting. I really thought I had a handle on the whole “acceptance” thing until this meditation kind of blew me away.

For some reason when I was going into meditation I started seeing Native Chiefs and Elders and horses and such and I thought this a little strange because I don’t usually get this. Bobby seems to follow more the Native path. I noticed that they were surrounding me in a circle and then they started to send me blessings for abundance and good wishes for my manifestation. This was totally a miracle to me but I surprised even myself when I got up in my visualization and said “no don’t waste this energy on me and my abundance send it out to the world instead”.

This really freaked me out a little. The energy they were sending was beautiful and for some reason I couldn’t accept it. I somehow felt unworthy of this abundant energy that spirit wanted to give to me.

Logically I’m thinking “what am I doing” but it was a good realization for me that I still push away abundance when it wants to come in.

(As an aside where does all the manifested stuff go when we don’t accept it? Hmmm.)

I started thinking for some reason about a Sunflower. Did you know they follow the sun? They literally soak in the rays and when the sun moves they move their head to get some more.

At no time does the sunflower say. Well I don’t think I’m worthy today I’m going to give a little more sun to the sunflower beside me and I’ll wither a bit.

Lesson being here for me is that I’m going to live my life more like a sunflower. I’m going to soak up the good energy and when it starts to wither I’m going to arrange my life so I can soak up some more.

Oh I know life is never meant to be 100% groovy all the time. The pendulum always goes back and forth. It’s balancing the highs and lows thats the hard part.

We have been brought up (well my age group) to believe that we do not deserve to have an easy life. Why is that?

Let’s all be sunflowers and soak up the good stuff. I’m thinking with all the unclaimed manifestations out there the possibilities are endless.

Until we meet again, Sharon

    Sharon:
    This brings back a beautiful memory when Mom and I were travelling in Italy. On the way in the morning we passed a sunflower farm with acres and acres of sunflower plants standing proud with their heads up and facing us like a massive choir and upon return in afternoon they were all looking away toward the sunset. Sunflowers bring back fun memories of Mom and our travels.
