Stirred after fluffing

Posted on September 25th, 2009 by Shawn in Gratitude, doing things differently

It’s so great to be in a place where you know you’re being stirred up and that you’ve asked for it, even if not exactly in the way it’s showing up. So, I’ve been practicing the art of heart fluffing. Feels great at the time. Really great. And then in the next few days lots of those kinds of mucky pieces hanging around in you get stirred up and become more noticeable. Cool, even if not fun! Last few days having been feeling like Paul and I need LOTS of space – being away from each other. Yuck stuff…on the other hand, this is really what’s up for healing. And by fluffing up my heart and asking that it be cleaned…well, this is answered prayer, isn’t it? Amen! (Now, this minute I’m feeling this way, when Paul’s in the other room!) Clean, clean, clean!

So, not only the fluffing has been happening, but I took a jaunt to San Francisco today for my spiritual direction session with Carol Costello. And today I had time to also see my aunt and uncle who live nearby and go past the homes that my grandmothers lived in. More stirring! Just being in San Francisco brings me back to being a little girl growing up in the early 60’s. Golden Gate Park. Larson Pool. The aquarium. 19th Avenue, Stonestown, the Emporium windows at Christmas. The fog.

The forecast for SF (in the Sacramento paper) was patchy, morning fog. I should have known better!
