Sandy's Reflections Action And Reaction-By Sandy Jones

Sandy's Reflections Action and Reaction

I was thinking more about the differences in my life now with this Grace that abides here with me, in my heart, guiding me.

One thing for sure, I am living more closely to a kind of simple and pure 'living Action' rather than in 'a constant reaction' to every thing 'out there'. Where before I was bouncing around in case of seemingly endless reactions. Now, upon this gentle Grace that has found a place in my soul and in my heart, I find my self far less affected by the commotion and situations of everyday life. I find a freedom here that allows me to rise above (or let go the re-actor). I am moved by Grace and as this Grace leads the way I am in a sort of simple Action un-tethered to the symbols and tangible events of life.

I am closer to a sort of Living Action happening because I know I am really a Self beyond, behind, over and above the human scenario and symbols. I am not so much driven by the events going on. I am no longer beholden to matter and things and situations. My reactions are more 'intelligent' I would say. I am wiser. I have nothing to lose in away as I am Self-complete (though we all are, and always were and always will be, it helps to see this and live it as a reality).

Life flows more gently for me now. I am at peace with It. I am not fighting Life nor my self.

I think it may be true that Life is an ever-flowing, eternal river, a movement and a rest. I feel immersed in It. We are, all of us, immersed in It, but recognizing this has helped me to see that this New sense of Identity is Real and It has something to do with The Light of God. I see now that God is Being all that is or ever was, all inclusive Here and Now…..

I now think, feel and act from this higher place of recognition. I know my Real Self is untouched by the material time space world. So I don't get hung up on this passing 'scenario' of symbols....And if I do, I am soon turned round and brought back to peace and understanding very quickly.

I am capable of beginning (time and time again if need be), with a simple inner acknowledgment of the Living fact that God is All in all that is or ever will be....there is no other; there is only God. This Understanding allows me to live 'in the world' and amazingly I now find my self more capable in the world. I am living in Love and I am in love the world. I am totally more involved in the world, I am with the world but now I am without all the personal re-action. I am more intelligent and my actions are clear and wiser, and certainly more honest to God.

Now I have a kind of freedom even though I do not go anywhere. I have a kind of freedom that is more about fearlessness....more about peace and tranquility of my heart and soul.

I am filled with creative delight that, obviously to me, comes from "Something" Beautiful, fresh and alive and clean (clean meaning; not tormented and demented by the personal sense of being a limited, encapsulated entity thinker).

This Grace that blesses me now allows me to enjoy the world again and not be afraid of all the 'tangible events' appearing as the scene at hand…Somehow, I just know 'nothing is real' and so I don't worry as much.....I worry, but somehow I am able to stand back and see from afar, see a grand scheme of things, and then I am not so afraid.

I feel like I am in a soft protective Meadow. I feel Heaven very close and sometimes I feel like I am the portal between this world and the other.

There is babbling brook Here all the time....It is moving along and I can dip my bare feet in it.

I do believe there is a Living Peace that is right here all the while. It is mellow and soft and hidden behind the tangible world. There is meadow, a beautiful rolling, gentle and fragrant, Real Place and it is in the center. Here I can sit 'neath a tree and Here I find a place to rest....Here and Now, all is well and perfect, whole and complete....all is Love and everything is alright.....Amazing Grace.

The discovery the Real Self leads to The Meadow. It is Real, It is Here and there is a soft sound and Bright Light Here. Here is Love perfect and eternal; Here is our Eternal Self-Identity that abides at the right hand of God, always.

Peace and Light, Sandy
