While Adventuring Away From Home

By Deborah Arndt

“You don’t know what it will be, but you know it will be great! What a pattern for living. I love that!”

 

Deb and duneFrom Deborah:  As the latest chapter in our new work (which we are currently writing) is titled: Bittersweet, I can say I found our return home from our travels to the islands of the Outer Banks to be just that, happy but redolent with that misty sense of missing something. I imagine that I missed that sense of adventure of what will happen next. I missed the freshness of a morning somewhere else so far from my home. Now, after reading what Our Teachers have posted: Returning Home,  I have learned that I carried all that with me. In the same way that I longed for change and to go adventuring, I also longed for peace and quiet in my heart … and recognition that all is well and I can have a fabulous life wherever I am. Our Teachers confirm that, and I am grateful.

Yet, so much about our experiences there seem to draw something new out of me. A view of trees and plants that don’t grow here in upstate NY, and the ocean spray and mist that we don’t get here, and more intense sunlight than we get here, and the list goes on. However, in each case, when feeling stimulated by those things, I always felt such gratitude to be where I am, at any given moment. Such thanks! I am just as happy here, back home, at my desk writing this to you and having my happy memories.   [Read more…] about While Adventuring Away From Home

Returning Home

By Deborah Arndt Leave a Comment

“Must we travel to different spheres in our minds or to different places physically to get that kick we so need out of our lives?”   

From the Teachers:  “When we return from some beloved landscape of our dreams or perhaps a marvelous vacation, we rejevening-1031236__180oice in our return to our homes. Yet we carry the happiness and profound moments that we experienced while away, back home with us. What does this say about our lives? Must we travel to different spheres in our minds or to different places physically to get that kick we so need out of our lives? Does the change do us that much good?

Well, we write a lot about change and we have stated that change is always return. You need not wonder for change is always thus. You return to where you left off … unless you did something different … unless you opened new doors and experienced highs not felt before. We love that change is return, for it spells out what we already know – that you return to the arms of the loving universe each time. That is a given … and a promise. So what good does a vacation or ‘sea change’ do?

You have made a commitment to yourself to work on a change of some sort, a change we prefer to call a transformation where you wish to make a kind of shift, either within yourself or concerning something you are doing. Do you understand? An intended transformation can be dressed in so many coats and so many colors. We speak of where you have applied a mixture of intention and wish with planning the physical outcome such as travel in your car or plane, and you arrive at a physical place and you see it or sense it with your physical senses. Now you are ‘here,’ you say. Now you have arrived. But what have you arrived to? That is the question.  [Read more…] about Returning Home

Getting It Right — Here and Now

By Deborah Arndt

“Imagine a wise sand dune, sitting there waiting for your visit. It expects you to come and play awhile, to move the sand around in little piles, or to pour it into a bucket and spill it back out again …”

From the Teachers:  “We are so pleased to be writing this morning’s post to you. We are in the midst of writing our new book, which will be our fourth, for you. As we create this new volume, our already completed one, Magnitude: Varying Our Degree of Learning,  is getting ready for “launch.”  In the meantime, we are hard at work to get our next book underway for you. There is much we want to say to you on a fine morning like this where Deborah writes. She is visiting an island in the mid-Atlantic with sweeping winds and mild, even chilly temperatures, but plenty of beach. She can walk for miles. One can feel such confidence and well-being from this location, and we want you to feel that, too. Perhaps if you rest your hands on a keyboard somewhere or take up a pen, we will be only too happy to flow to you some inspiring and helpful words. You see, we can do that, either in writing or in words that flow to you from our “brain” to yours, so to speak. That is known, of course, as telepathy, but we are pretty good at it in a plain and simple way, without fancy words, because we are on the same energetic current as you. We can emit a thought of well-being for you, and just for you, and “voila” it arrives at your door, so to speak, or should we say in your mind in a way that you can register it.  [Read more…] about Getting It Right — Here and Now
