When I’m feeling pushed or I’m pushing!

When feeling pushed or as though I am pushing, it helps to remember that when I think I am experiencing coercion, leaning on or over another, or as the Buddha might say – attachment (for or against),  I’ve forgotten something! I am disconnected from myself.  usually out of fear that my needs are not going to get met.  And often because I have become attached to a particular person or event and think this is my only strategy to meet my needs – say for love or friendship.  What I have slipped into is creating a restriction in the life flowing through me and also my relationships.

At some level I will be resisting my needs and trying to influence or control my or another’s needs or actions. Things don’t flow. I’ll bet you’ve noticed this.

Put even more simply when we are judging another or the situation we are in – then the life energy in our relationships and ourselves is reduced.  It’s like twisting the hose and the water can’t get through.  Until it’s built up enough to either blow the tap connection off or have a hissy fit!

Even more concisely – when we judge, we block Love.  We have lost sight of the love in the situation or in ourselves.  We have forgotten we have choice.  Each person has the right to choose and so do we.  We block love and choice from flowing in us, through us and to us!

Certainly it can be terribly hard not to grab on or to push away – re-actively when we are in pain or in fear.  Breathing and yielding to the event, then turning your love to the pain, the fear and the resistance, you are experiencing and loving it, owning it, holding yourself gently, remembering your power to choose, to mourn, to express your needs and meet them in a variety of ways.  Love opens the flow for yesterday, today and tomorrow.
