Potential and Surrender

Today I spoke to TWO prospective developer partners - in ONE day……HUGE!....and both people I thought have excellent scope to work with.

I have been holding this ecovillage project since Greenedge had to leave us for over a year now, struggling with the discomfort of sitting in the ‘not knowing’ and speaking to about 6 developers, all of whom had little interest in us or we had little interest in them.

Today was very sweet and i decided to go to a yoga class. At the end of the class during meditation/relaxation, I ran through my teacher’s all-embracing and powerful, prayer: Thankyou…….I surrender…….and asking for help. Anne tells us to smile, to choose joy, and in moments of complete contentment and peace, I had the image of a greater being smiling back at me. This face said: ‘you have at last reached a stage of readiness, it’s time for this project to move forward again’. With all this year’s feelings from frustration, impatience through acceptance and even some sort of ease with uncertainty flooding back to me, I smiled a broader smile and felt the power of that message in my heart.

  1. Oh Lyndall. Thank you so much for that smile. My house in Perth is refusing to let me go. Maybe it's because I am meant to be joining you and just haven't done anything about it. Congratulations on the continuing dream. i always read your newsletter but feel a little distant. Maybe my house will let me go soon. All the very best to you. Linda Grigg. Perth.
