Do you not sometimes
surprise yourself?
And is this
not usually
a pleasant surprise?

Does a surprise not
happen when
you are expecting
a different outcome,
but does not
something happen
in spite of yourself
that surprises
even you?

And which “you”
is the one
who is surprised?
Is it not the ego,
who sets the guidelines,
the rules to follow,
the procedure to take
to insure things
will happen
how they are “supposed”
to be?

Is it not ego
that will be surprised
when you do things
in a different way,
or an outcome happens
when you least
expect it,
getting “surprising” results –
is not ego surprised
that you did not
follow the usual
or typical way?

There is an
uncomfortableness
that ego feels
when you enter a state
of not knowing
all of the “hows”,
for is not ego
an expert planner –
and does not
ego resist
when you wish to let go
to let things happen
and fall into place?

Does ego not
grudgingly acknowledge
that some things happen
for a greater good –
somehow an outcome
that you did not expect
makes you pleasantly
surprised?

Can you get
more comfortable
in the place
of not setting limits,
not holding yourself back –
let ego manage
what ego is good at,
as you expand
your possibilities
beyond the horizon
of what you can see –
can you accept
what will happen,
can you let yourself
be surprised?

Can you play
with imagination,
can you enter into
a state of allowance,
do not some surprises
exceed your expectations,
is it not Humility
that you feel
when you are part
of a greater flow?

Allow.
Accept.
Imagine.
Limitless
Eternal
Love.
No surprise –
That You Are Love.

When you set
things in motion,
is it sometimes
not like
gears on a machine
that have not
been used
in a long, long time –
might there be
some groaning sounds
as the parts
that have not been used
begin to move –
if there is friction,
from being stuck
in one place,
might the gears
need oil to move –
but do not gears
know what to do
when given the opportunity
to move again?

And as gears,
like cogs,
begin to turn,
is there not
cause and effect –
for every movement,
is there not always
another turn,
another part
that is moving?

Like gears in a machine,
like cogs in a wheel –
does it not take
an initial push,
some oil to loosen the parts,
to set something
in motion –
is there not
an intricate beauty
to a well-oiled machine
that works together
even as you may not
completely understand
or know how
it works?

You may need
some scheduled maintenance,
you may need to address
any problems that arise,
but can you not
set the wheels
in motion –
to take you places
you wish to go –
even if you not know
all of the
hows and whys
on how you get
from here to there?

But if you make
the initial push,
setting gears in motion –
and if you lubricate
the path with Love,
and as you have Faith
that things are
working together,
yes, you can make
adjustments
at any time,
for once you are moving,
is it not easier
to keep things flowing
than when you are
standing still?

Will not Love
show you the way –
can you step
into the flow
of the Motion of Love –
do you not set
in motion
as you begin to move,
a domino effect –
when you do this,
then that can happen –
then that . . .
and then . . .

And Know
that Love
is with you
every step,
through every change,
always ready to help
smooth the way –
as you step
into the Flow,
the Motion of Love.
