Sea of Grace

Flowing in a divine current of peace
Swimming in the sea of grace
....

Doesn't this sound better than:
Frustration with problem A,
Pushing to achieve item B,
Thinking and overthinking current circumstances and/or where you want to be in life?

Instead of flowing with life's current, we often struggle against what is happening in our lives. I have been trying to figure out why as humans we do this....
One culprit may be our powerful and active minds-- always thinking, questioning, wanting something more.
Often the Mind dislikes an issue or circumstance, even when we are perfectly safe and fine.
"No! I wanted that, not this!"
Or the Mind sets artificial timelines and feels disappointed:
"I should be promoted by now," or
"affluent by now", or
"married by now", etc...

This can lead to the following unhealthy conditions:
-being frozen in fear or indecision
-forcing an outcome or trying to control another person
-loss of touch with the present; restlessness and anxiety

I speak the following words as much for myself as for you. I bless you and love you.
If you find that you have lost your peace and are resisting "what is" because your mind keeps telling you what "should" be....Take a deep breath, tell the voice to please be quiet,

Hop back in the Sea of Grace;
The water is warm,
And it is waiting for you.
