The Whole World is Conspiring to Shower You With Blessings

"Consider one more possibility: that the people who seem to slow us down and hold us back are actually preventing things from happening too fast.

Imagine that the evolution of your life or our culture is like a pregnancy: It needs to reach its full term. Just as a child isn't ready to be born after five months of gestation, the new world we're creating has to ripen in its own time. The recalcitrant reactionaries who resist the inevitable birth are simply making sure that the far-seeing revolutionaries don't conjure the future too suddenly. They serve the greater good."

-Rob Brezny from his book "PRONOIA IS THE ANTIDOTE FOR PARANOIA:How the Whole World Is Conspiring to Shower You with Blessings" (available at East West Books NYC or http://snipurl.krjj )

The idea that spoke to me the most in Rob's quote is the one about allowing things in our world to ripen in due time. Fortentely for me, I don't usually feel like other people are holding me back, but I do sometimes feel like I want things to change sooner then later and wonder why they take so long inspite of work in manifesting them into reality.

Rob encourages us to shift our conciousness, by changing our thought processes about these matters because it helps us to release negativity towards others, ourselves and the circumstance. During a pregnancy, the mother must constantly nourish, protect and tend to herself and the growing life inside her. She creates the safe and sacred space for life to "ripen". She has no control of when that baby will be ready to be born, but she knows it will be born.

When we actively nurture transformation, it occurs. A great spiritual teacher of mine, Eric Butterworth simply states, "Trust the process".
