Never underestimate even the tiniest of actions. They are tiny drops of water, or maybe even, tiny sparks of flame that may either build your life or set all of it spectacularly ablaze. I've been there. I've really been there. 5 years back my entire life was set aflame which was all as a result of a karma build of negative actions over a period of a long time. Ignoring the small things, attacking inward and outward, letting pain seethe inside of me and run my life. Oh yes I recollect that night well, the night where the flames colored the sky. I burnt down. I burnt to ashes.
Every day, we are presented with situations in which we are able to add to our karma or deduct from it.
It's never actually the enormous life events that identify us. Yes, absolutely, they have got a major part to play, but it really simmers down to the small things, the nuts and blots details that many folks ignore because they believe that they are insignificant. The more and more I dive into life the more I start to understand that everything is moving, continually changing, made of energy...and your actions in this moment have the capability to send ripples through space that you can not even potentially comprehend the true power of.
For an extended period of time, there had been this gap between me and other people as a result of an inbuilt distrust in myself - not them. This opening was created through fear, through innate hysteria, and through a complete and total non-understanding of what I was born to do and be way down. So I would avoid circumstances and people, or on the flip side, purposefully spend almost all of my time attending to others so I could ignore focusing on myself.
You know that karma I'm talking about? Well, it doesn't work so well when you are coming from a place of fear.
There's great beauty in this life, but you can certainly miss it if you're spending too much time thinking in times to come. You can miss the amazing smiles folk give you and how stupendously superb they are. You can miss out on how amazingly peaceful it is to sit out on your porch closing your eyes and just listening to all the sounds around you. These are thought to be the small details by many, but to me, these are the drivers of my life...these moments are my inspiration.
Everything around us is living and moving, and to think for a second that just because the ground you are standing on is solid basically makes it dead, you my friend are absolutely wrong. It's all breathing. It's all living...and it all matters.
Each specific action has a result. Each specific action has a counter-reaction to it. These are the laws of life that we live by and these are big forces at play. I believe what we don't quite yet understand is how much our actions actually do effect others, the people surrounding us, and the rest of the globe and beyond. We haven't seemed to quite see how different we make the world every single day by inspiring somebody or lending a helping hand to somebody in need. We don't see the ripple results of our smile on someones life, attitude, and perception of the world.
All these little actions that you take each day are part of karma.
So as time is occurring, I tap into my actions more and more and more and can feel the landscape changing as I consciously make my choices. This movement in my mind-set, which came through my amazing coaches mentors stretching of my mind, has permitted me to let go of what wounds me and to breath life and love into every single moment that I have.
Always come back to your breath. Come back. Come back. Come back. If your intelligence starts to wander, come back. If you start to become irritated, come back. Over the course of time you'll get better and better at being in this moment instead of getting stuck in reliving old ones or making an attempt to go to a place that you can't really exist in. Continue coming back. "Come back to me" often you will hear your heart subtly whisper.
Our lives can be put on auto pilot or you can drive this guy manually, which is much more fun, and actually get an understanding of the results of the intricacies of each and every single action you take. There's beauty in that. You don't have to be threatened by the acceptance that everything you do matters. This should be something that frees you rather than locks you up.
Let that karma build. Keep adding those drops of water into the vessel and over a period of time you absolutely will have filled it.
P.S. Don't be discouraged if you accidentally lit your haystack aflame. Having the ability to rebuild your whole city just how you really want it to be is one of the coolest experiences you'll ever get to have.
