I am standing at the beginning of a new week. The time has come to wrestle with my own thoughts and take on the challenges that will be placed before me like a boquet of flowers.  I do not take on those challenges impulsively but need to do so consciously, following a simple procedure of drawing up a list organising that list in what needs to be done today. For now writing this blog is a priority on that list. I need to tell the story about my life that might never be read nor told and yet the story is important. The story I tell myself about my life will eventually frame the rest of my life….even a future set of lives. In this story I can wither be the victim of the hero…it depends on how the story is told.

Off course this story is not just fictional and requires the exploration of truth within my life. But truth has many perspective and although we cannot change truth we can choose the lense through which we look when we put truth under the micrscope of our consciousness.  By facing truth in all its facets I get deeper underneath the veil of self-knowledge.  I pick up the inconsistencies and incoherencies and allow the full picture of the puzzle emerge slowly to form a picture of the “I am” that is me. 

Besides making my priorities clear, I walk into my office, I look at the energy and I use my first moments to change or improve the energy flow within my office. It might be a simple moving of an object or a decluttering of an area. This brings me into contact with my environment and the conscious design behind the space where I will spend in the next eight hours. So many people goes to work with a negative attitude, unaware of the potential your desk space of office space might have. I change the energy where I move…it is a silent service we can offer the world while we are alking about. I see myself as an energy sculptor and I am continually in a process of sculpting the energy patterns around me. Within a confined space like my office I use my Feng Shui knowledge to create a consistency in flow between wind and water.

But outside it might be through a smile, my body positioning or by simply removing clutter elsewhere. I find that my perspective change about the world and how I interact with it when I realise that at every moment in time I am playing an influential role. I am touching people through my attitude but also through my realisation of the importance of space and how space and placement is influencing behaviours. These are subtle awarenesses one needs to build up over time. I cannot claim to be an empath but I can choose to be aware of the people around me and how I relate with them. I can choose to be a constructive rather than a destructive force in the community around me. A compliment a slight shift in presence can make a huge difference in how life is being viewed. We are energetically connected and part of being illuminated is to see those connections and to recognise them. 

I have access to an abundance of energy if I simply takes the opportunity to see those hidden patterns. We can read about mindfulness and Feng Shui but until we put into practice energy shifts, to shift the situation, it becomes meaningless. However I have realised that I cannot just shift energy to suit my own selfish purpose but I must look for energy that is constructive, complementary and ever edifying. Those are the shifts that we need to work at with constant focus and effort. for then it does not just influence but it also becomes a source for personal growth.
