Blue Dots

In a very mindful state, I was driving to Sears across town to buy a new fridge. There was a lot of traffic. At the intersection of the Susquehanna Trail and Route 30, I sat waiting to turn left to head east. I began to see the cars and trucks as arteries. Then it flashed to a blue stream. I recall all the pictures about consciousness flowing through the Universe - it's always drawn as blue dots. Then I see it. Each car, with a blue dot in it, pushing it along its path. The highway is just a bunch of blue dots going about their business. But! They're not all bright shining blue! Initially I see red, orange, yellow, but maybe these colors are remnants from recent Chakra work earlier in the day. Then I let myself see them differently, where they are all blue, but just not bright and shining. They're dull, pale. Focused, with their heads down. Focused, but on the wrong things. Getting to where they need to be. But where do they "need" to be? They're already here! Now! Once in a while, a brighter, bluer dot, but nobody else cares. That one is just Happy. Do they know? Do they care? They all just have their own little personal agendas. So much Ego in the world.

Blue dots on the move:
1/3 are moving away from something they hate (work, home, etc.)
1/3 are moving towards something they despise
1/3 are stuck between 2 things they despise, unhappy in both.

This might be why people love their cars and love to drive. Or at least say they do, but they bring so much anger to the roads too! But in their car is the only place they're away from everything they're running from. What do they do? Grin and bear it. They take tiny steps, hunting for happiness (back to school, buy something new and shiny, gorge themselves on food, file for divorce, get lost in television) and hope. Or they don't do any of that and they just keep being. Unhappy.

What should they do? Stop the hating. JUST STOP. AND BE. Take notice the possibility for happiness. Start down the road. Try and get a glimpse of what's really out there. And in there. Not your physical reality of cars and tables, but the REAL reality we don't see, because we can't see. How it's all just One and Connected.

Start out in your car. Just be. Enjoy the Slow Lane. Conversation and music. You'll get there when you get there. Just be in your safe place between Everything Else. And then grow that safe place so it can encompass more places. Tune into the energy, and everything gets easier.
