I know this, because I\u2019m living it.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m in it.<\/p>\n
And it has been like that for years.<\/p>\n
Waking up is not an event, but more like a subtle unfolding.<\/p>\n
An expanding recognition, an endless opening up.<\/p>\n
A light that keeps on shining brighter.<\/p>\n
Consciousness kissing you.<\/p>\n
More and more and more.<\/p>\n
Better and better, and better.<\/p>\n
Easier, and easier, and easier.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s impossible to describe what really happens when your outlook on life changes from within.<\/p>\n
Words simply fall short.<\/p>\n
But everything becomes lighter.<\/p>\n
The direct experience of whatever happens, gets a new meaning.<\/p>\n
A felt meaning, not a mental one.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s like your senses start to have fun.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s like walking around with an inner smile that hardly fits within your body.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s about rekindling the flame of innate, childlike awe.<\/p>\n
Like having the best holiday of your life, every day.<\/p>\n
It is really, really, exquisitely real.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s thrilling.<\/p>\n
And soothing.<\/p>\n
And energizing.<\/p>\n
And inspiring.<\/p>\n
And I simply can\u2019t stop being deeply grateful for it, and share what it does to and for me.<\/p>\n
Waking up is like being stuffed with bubbling joy.<\/p>\n
More and more and more.<\/p>\n
God, what a miracle.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s real.<\/p>\n
So real.<\/p>\n
