Happy February. It’s going to be a month of profound change and deepening intimacy with the divine creator source. It’s a real chance to be in our hips and hearts and hold space for the immense waves of change ahead. 

Know that you came to this time on planet Earth with the ability to surf the waves of change occurring. The Hopi and Lakota prophecies speak of these tumultuous times when wind and water will unite in force to purge the land and when wind and fire sweep across those areas that have been disrespected. The wind is the element that brings with it precious knowledge.  They speak of the medicine wheel being out of balance and how we cannot separate any further from the divine source, and we will live in uproarious times until we consciously take action to deepen our intimacy with ourselves, the planet, and the cosmos. Until we respect all life in all its forms and do not place the human condition above the rest of creation. 

 I had a clear vision recently when I realized that we focused on seeking truth by looking outside ourselves around fifteen years ago. Then came the iPhone, and our attention suddenly shifted downward to a tiny screen in the palms of our hands as if we were praying. Now, we are so consumed by a false matrix that prevents us from fully turning inward to the home of our purest source—the silent stillness that holds all the answers. We are beginning to value artificial intelligence over emotional intelligence. 

 Life is a beautiful odyssey, filled with its ups and downs, and along the way, we all encounter suffering and challenges. It’s completely normal to feel overwhelmed at times, especially when we focus on what’s going wrong. We might view the world as unfair as if fate or the universe has a personal grievance against us, that there is a punishing god , and that some people hold power over us. This perspective can feel burdensome and filled with resentment. But it’s crucial to remember that this is just one way of looking at things—it’s not the only truth. Our experiences often shape our outlook: the universe isn’t out to punish or reward us. Instead, it simply flows according to its own natural rhythms.

 Our suffering does not arise from an indifferent universe; it often comes from resisting the natural flow of life. The universal flow is continuous, like a river. It is flowing in, through, and as. It is not just in us but in everything throughout the cosmos. We can stand at the edge and observe it moving or turn our backs on it; still, it flows. We can dip a toe in, and it continues to flow. We can immerse ourselves in it, and guess what? It keeps flowing. We can even become the flow and find ourselves co-creating a life of profound beauty and seductive experiences.

 From the moment we enter the world, we are provided with beliefs and expectations about how life should unfold. We start labeling and categorizing experiences as good or bad. However, this mindset can obscure a vital truth: everything that happens is simply part of the grand universal order; life is not personal. When we resist this order, long for different circumstances, blame others for our struggles, or wallow in self-pity, we ultimately cause ourselves greater suffering. The universe is only abundant, delivering an abundance of what we focus on and perceive to be a truth. This is the true essence of being a co-creator.

 Complaining often reflects a struggle to understand the laws of the universe rather than engage with it. Embracing life as it comes is essential for overcoming challenges. Acceptance enables us to align with and integrate into life’s currents instead of resisting them. This doesn’t imply that we should be passive or give up; rather, it indicates that every situation, even the tough ones, presents an opportunity for growth and learning. Suffering is indeed a gift waiting to be unwrapped. On the roadmap of life, these moments of suffering serve as signposts that guide us on how to surrender and create a more embodied, empowered, and fulfilling experience. Frequently, the most profound insights arise from the most challenging circumstances, and the obstacles we encounter are designed to uplift us rather than bring us down.

 Consider this: people from similar backgrounds can experience vastly different lives, even with the same opportunities. One might glide into success, while the other might struggle through repeated challenges. The reason for this difference is not merely luck or external circumstances; it heavily depends on how people perceive, interpret, and respond to their life situations. For many, we have embodied disempowering aspects of life that we struggle against. When we surrender to the divine source, we are shown how to transmute these disempowering aspects and then reintegrate with a deeper intimacy to the source and our unique expression of the source. If something is disempowering, it can never be integrated; the universe is not here to make you suffer unless you believe you should. Suffering is an option until it’s no longer an option.

 When we complain, we trap ourselves in a cycle of negativity, fostering the illusion that we are victims of external forces. However, we liberate ourselves from unnecessary suffering when we surrender our perspective from resistance to understanding.

 Instead of asking, “Why is this happening to me?” It’s far more enriching to ask, “What can I learn from this?” Reintegrating our divine self is a mental development that involves unlearning what we were taught in our formative years.

 This slight shift in thinking transforms challenges into extraordinary opportunities for growth and inner peace, allowing you to reconnect with your divine creative force and foster the life of your dreams.

 The universe’s neutrality isn’t just a concept that lightens human suffering; it’s a profound understanding that we play a significant role in shaping our own experiences, often without even realizing it. Our reality comes to life through our perceptions, choices, and insights, illustrating how much power we hold in creating our own journeys.

 The law of cause and effect beautifully shapes our existence, reminding us that every action carries its own consequence. When we choose to align our actions with wisdom and responsibility, we open the door to a reality filled with peace, harmony, and fulfillment. Conversely, responding with resistance, blame, or complaints can unintentionally create a cycle of suffering that seems impossible to escape.

 Ultimately, we must embrace a higher consciousness that views life not as a series of injustices but as a perfectly orchestrated symphony of experiences. By relinquishing complaints and accepting what is, we cease being victims of circumstance and become co-creators of our destiny. The universe is neither cruel nor kind; it simply exists.

 Our choice lies in how we dance with it. The symphony plays a universal song. Are you ready and willing to pirouette? Or would you rather stand on the edge and complain about the key in which the music of life is played? A deeper, more intimate perspective, understanding, and definition of the divine leads to a more integrated experience of one‘s self as sacred. When we become truly still and silent, we gain an embodied experience of the divine flow that we are. Eventually, we integrate and become the flow.

 Our hearts’ true nature is stillness in the silence. Our hearts are like the membranes of drums. When an energetic frequency touches them, they vibrate with feelings. They do not label or categorize the feelings; they simply feel.

What a beautiful gift to be alive in these extraordinary times on earth.

Happy surfing.

BE Well
