Many will hear the call, but few will be chosen...

Many will hear the call, but few will be chosen...
In teaching I have always used the first part of that to my students, you received the call and YOU answered it. I get now that it is YOU who chooses to be chosen! It is an interesting phenomena right now that people are waking up and "hearing the call", whether it is via; yoga, spirituality, sustainability, organic, health, etc. It is just a beautiful thing to be in the presence of those who are listening to the alarm clock go off! But I realized this morning when I was contemplating why is it that there are so many who talk the talk so but few who walk the walk and even fewer who actually live it, and less that are committed to it.

I am clear that there are those who are into “the wake up” for fashion or image, there are those who are into it because it feels good, and there are those that are committed to it as a life style. But there are also those that are into it because it is fear based, looking for enlightenment or the safe passage in the rapture or that they secure a place in heaven to some how escape the hell that has been created on earth. What about doing what you do because it is the right thing to do, gives you joy to have a clean planet, a healthy body and mind. What more could one dream of?

I facilitated a beautiful workshop last night on discovering and tapping into the real feminine power, I was prepared for what may or may not occur. As is my very special town of the promised 20 people there were 5, nice number, it’s a healing number. When I got home I reviewed my notes and I pondered in the night what is it that I can learn from this; I contemplated the material, the place, the hours and I had made a special clause if the fee was too much to please not let that be a deterrent as I share what I know from passion, not from a monetary gain.  So this is where I really got a glimpse that many hear the call, but only few choose to be chosen!  

As I looked through my notes and realized that I had given eighteen hours of information in three hours; wow! a lot of information that is better defused in smaller digestible bites. I also realized what I held in my hand was the out-line of the book that I knew I was going to write but was confused about where to start and how to put it together, and here it was this gift was now neatly and beautifully staring me in the face!!!

Ever humbled in that which I fail to see, but I am honored to realize that it is all right there in front of me waiting for me to see!
