Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration
The focus for today is: I am aware of my connection to everything and everyone.
Consciousness, or higher consciousness, is an awareness of the whole, as well as of this moment itself. To be conscious means to be here now and to be aware, not just of ourselves, but of the life around us. We are not self-centered, or even other-centered, but rather embrace the All and everything and everyone around us.
It is not an easy state of being to reach or to maintain as there are so many distractions, both from the outside world and from inside our own head. Our mind can easily send us off into tangents of past, present or future, of she did this, he said that, I/they should have said/did this or that, etc.
Consciousness requires that we remain in the present and aware of our connection to everything and everyone. It requires that we release outdated personal stories and justifications (ours as well as other peoples') and embrace the present in its fullness, right here and right now.
Today's Daily Inspiration is excerpted from the InnerSelf.com article:
