Never underestimate even the littlest of actions. They are small drops of water, or maybe, tiny sparks of flame that will either build your life or set the entire thing spectacularly ablaze. I've been there. I have, really been there. 5 years back my life was set aflame and it was all due to a karma build of negative actions over a period of a long time. Ignoring the small things, attacking inward and outward, letting discomfort seethe inside of me and run my life. Oh yes I remember 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 will add to our karma or deduct from it.
It's never really the enormous life events that define us. Yes, naturally, they have a major part to play, however it really comes down to the little things, the ins and outs details that many folks ignore because they believe they are insignificant. The more I dive into life the more that I start to understand that everything is moving, continually changing, made of great energy...and your actions in this moment have the capability to send ripples through space that you cannot even possibly comprehend the true power of.
For a long time, there had been this major gap between me and people due to an inbuilt distrust in myself - not them. This big gap was created through fear, through private hysteria, and through a total non-understanding of what I was meant to do and be way down. So I'd avoid circumstances and other people, or on the flip side, purposefully spend most of my time attending to others so I could ignore concentrating on myself.
You know that karma that I am talking about? Well, it doesn't turn out well when you are actually coming from a place of fear.
There's great beauty in this life, but you can miss it if you start spending excessive time thinking in the distant future. You can miss the amazing smiles folk give you and how astonishingly superb they are. You can miss how unbelievably tranquil it is to sit out on your porch closing your eyes and just listening to all the sounds around you. These are said to be the little 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 only because the ground you are standing on is solid basically makes it dead, you my friend are absolutely wrong. It's all respiring. It's all living...and it all matters.
Each 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 think what we don't quite yet understand is how much our actions really do effect others, the people surrounding us, and the rest of the world and beyond. We do not quite see how different we make the world each day by inspiring a person or lending a helping hand to somebody in need. We don't see the ripple effects of our smile on someones life, perspective, and perception of the planet.
All these tiny actions that you take each and every day are part of karma.
So as time is moving along, I tap into my actions more and more and more and can feel the landscape changing as I consciously make my decisions. This movement in my mind-set, which came through my amazing coaches mentors stretching of my mind, has allowed me to let go of what hurts me and to breath life and love into each and every single moment that I have.
Always come back to your breath. Come back. Come back. Come back. If your intelligence takes a turn and starts to roam, come back. If you become irritated, come back. Over time , you'll get more successful at being in this moment instead of reliving old ones or making an attempt to go to a place that you can't really exist in. Keep coming back. "Come back to me" sometimes you will hear your heart murmur.
Our lives can be put on auto-pilot or you can drive this young dog manually, which is much more fun, and really get a feel for the outcome of the complexities of each and every single action you take. There's beauty in that. Do not be intimidated by the acceptance that everything you do matters. This is going to 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 time you absolutely will have filled it.
P.S. Do not fret if you incidentally lit your haystack up in flames. Having the ability to restore your whole town just the way you want it to be is probably one of the coolest experiences you may ever get to have.
