doing what you can with what you have

How is it that when it seems like I am out of food in the frig, I make the most creative dish.  Or when I am feel lost  in my direction and choose to open a book, a sentence points to where I need to attend. Or the perfect person comes along, every time ( in the moment I may not appreciate the full significance....)

Ther are so many choices , so much information in the world, we are surely not lacking in it.  But what is helpful to one person may not be for another.  That is where being on our own path, owning it, and celebrating it is so vital.  No one else can do this for us, it is an act of self love, selfness, self care  as opposed to selfishness.   

Often times that self love is patiently waiting as I find what I think I lost.  It is always there, this love, it is not dependent on anything, it is all giving.  I go on detours, or what seems like a detour, only to discover that the person I meet on a particular  day, is the key to unlocking a a certain facite of my natural wisdom, that has been held in suspended animation for centuries.  Intellectually I could not have discerned this, but as I pay attention to my chakras, more is revealed.

I don't get it always myself, I have fellow travelers who are able to look for me, to point where I need to attend to.  This is a form of community that is build on mutual support, connection, independence, interdependence.  Horses comes to mind, groups of horses.

What are your thoughts, i would love to hear.
