Today I was watching a wonderful movie that stars Dr. Wayne Dyer and his teachings. It's called The Shift.
Talk about having to take a pause break. Everytime he said something new, it was like eating dinner......I had to take a bite, and then chew......and chew.....and chew.......until I could swallow what it was he was saying. Then my mind would be off.
It would wander the wonderful paths that his words had formed and I found myself walking a very spiritual path. Everytime my mind wandered, it kept taking me back to one place. My favorite place, the Marina in San Leandro, California. I would see myself standing there just watching the water. Feeling the breeze move the boats behind me. Hearing the creaks of the dock, the faint whisper of sea gulls. I walked miles in my thoughts, before I realized, I needed to pause the movie and go back to what I had missed while seeing the beautiful Bay.
Halfway through the movie, my mind drifted back to the Marina, but this time my imagination soared and I saw the Dr. standing just behind me. He asked me "Do you like it here?" "Yes, it's my favorite place in all of the world." I answered never looking back at him, just keeping my eyes on the waves. "Why?" He said very softly, and I smiled "Because I am here.'" My eyes re-opened to the fact that again I was watching a movie. I fell silent in my spirit. "Why would I say that. I haven't been anywhere in the world. I am not one to make such a misinformed statement such as, My favorite place in ALL OF THE WORLD. How do I know that Africa, or England, Germany, Iceland for Christ sake wouldn't be more to my liking." and in that thought, a voice deep within me silently announced itself with this......
It is your favorite place because you are there. Your favorite place in the whole world is where ever you are. Because where you are, God is.
I must say that this statement was very powerful to me. It's alot to digest, I know that, and it has nothing to do with anything but just simply being happy because you are being. Because you live, Because God is everywhere.
I suggest to anyone reading this, that they to should get this movie and get on your walking shoes, cuz you are in for the walk of your life!
All my love,
Misti
