I write this story from the window seat of the train; the window is wide open and I can feel many stories to fill the spaces inside me.

There’s something pleasant to the senses about travelling from the train. A feeling of love emanates the environment around us that it ends up affecting us if we choose to welcome it’s healing benefits. A shift must occur in ourselves first if we are truly to be able to fully reap the benefits of this natural exchange from nature.

The shift is quiet and inwardly focused completely. No one can initiate the shift for us unless we choose to let ourselves feel the beauty and richness in being exactly where we are in the present. When we do allow ourselves the space to listen and surrender to the movement and noise of wherever we find ourselves in this world, we can see the beautiful flow of nature.

Ultimately, the beauty of nature is all around us, it just takes an intentional shift to be completely surrendered to the divine presence in front of our eyes to witness it deeply.

Well, the choice is individual. It’s unique. It’s subjective. All outcomes of being are synonymous; being aware of the love around us where we are, but the action and approach towards arriving to this space has everything to do with our distinct choices to intentionally shift our focus. If there is an answer you seek to this question, I am afraid I cannot give you that answer. Only you can really answer it for yourself when we can slow down enough to see. There’s a saying that says, “we go where our attention goes,” and in this case, that is definitely true.

Let’s say we are having a day where our body feels riddled with overwhelming thoughts and sensations, like stress and anxiety. If we arrive from a place of dis-ease, we may find it more difficult to shift into love because our minds are consumed with thoughts, and the way we think certainly does influence our perception of the world around us. However, even if we are riddled with tension and thoughts, we can find it comforting to shift into love more effortlessly if we can let go of the thoughts and come to a place of total surrender to everything outside of our current focus, which is (for this story) what is going on outside our windows.

Acceptance arises where we meet ourselves in a space where there is no sense of time, just a rich, meaningful fulfilment of being present with where we are at. I told you in the beginning here that I was sitting on the window seat of the train, and I can tell you, love is flowing through me in ways that fill myself with a divine trust in where I am in this world. A trust that is guiding me and my intuition through the day with love in my heart because I can feel the love of the earth’s heartbeat moving through my being as I continue to watch the world just be. It reminds me to slow down, not take life too seriously, and enjoy the moment for what it is, without needing to change a single thing about it.
