The Rules of The Game

The first Guideline I followed in all of this is that I didn't force things.   I would "see" the Flow of how things were going and I had to be an observer.  It was important that my ego was put in the background.  The more I emptied myself of ME the stronger the Flow.
The image I was given was to be a reed in a flowing river that bent with the with the water.

The little reed, bending to the force of the wind, soon stood upright again when the storm had passed over.   Aesop

Then the Guidance was to be in the Now.  This was very difficult.  I like knowing that my "pantry" is stocked.  Instead "They" kept me so close to the bone but I never went without.  I never went hungry or was short on the rent.  It's almost embarassing for me to say how slim my finances are.  But somehow within those perimeters I went to Europe, traveled all over the country, met very interesting people, gave gourmet dinner parties, had so much stuff I was always giving it away, sat on the beach of both oceans. .My children all ended up quite successful following their Bliss.

After years of dealing with this I now have an inner confidence that what I need will always be there when I need it.
