Releasing Attachment

Isn't it interesting that once you have done your best to align the moon and stars, until you let it go, there seems to be such resistance to you having your desires?  I know that you have experienced this many times; you want something so badly that it just always seems a bit out of reach until you toss your hands in the air and declare a willingness to accept whatever comes your way. 

At that point, magic happens and...  you get it.

We call this resistance 'attachment'.  It seems that, through attachment, we become so inflexible as to how we get our outcome that we end up missing it - or the avenues to get to it.

We also know that it is important to put energy into what you want to create because it takes energy to make stuff.  Energy flows where your attention goes.  This is called focus.

Now we end up with a conundrum.  How do we remain focused on what we want while letting go of the attachment to it?

I believe the answer is in setting your intention.  Intention is the gentle movement of energy into what you want.  It sets your focus while providing flexibility.

Next week, making intentions work.
