Enjoy Life's Banquet

Have you ever thought of how you should feel be at a particular moment? Do you expect to be happy all the time? Can you stay relaxed and calm even when things are getting crazy?

Observe how your expectations are blocking your energy flow. Will you become cranky when you want to be relaxed but find yourself anxious below the surface? Or will your emotions act up when you want to be calm during meditations only to find that you are restless instead? What can you do then?

You can observe how you react when reality is different from your expectations. Experience for yourself, as you want to be calm and relaxed during a meditation session, you only get
anxious and tight in return. If you let go of your expectations and just let the energy flow and observe what is going on, you can experience how the energy is changing immediately. As you let go, out of a sudden, you feel relaxed and easy!

We want to be in control, we think that we know best and have little trust. The Tao is in charge, and She knows best. Let go and let happen whatever has to happen. When we let go of our expectations we might find diamonds where we expected coal instead.

The energy flow is versatile, abundant, and tailored to your needs. When you are open to life without letting your expectations be in the way, the universe can shower us with presents
beyond our imagination. However, when we have one-dimensional goals, our energy becomes frozen and rigid and we can't see the abundance that surrounds us. How silly we are. Instead of having a banquet, we insist on having only one kind of diet.

Be open and let your energy flow! The universe is diverse and abundant, and so can be your life. Get your plate and eat from life's banquet at your heart's desire. Enjoy!
