I always seem to be being told to let go and clear my mind these days.

Long story, which has me with way to much on my mind really but that's not the point here;)

Anyway back to what this is about.

Meditation isn't either but it lends a little to what I feel i want to say today.

To some this is something they can't live without but to me it's always been a bit of a swear word because for some reason I've never been able to really let go and clear my mind. Something always pops in to my head that distracts me and so these attempts have left me feeling more of a failure than anything else so I've pretty much avoided it.

Never being one to just give up though, I've kept on dabbling despite not succeeding. So in the early hours of this morning since I wasn't sleeping anyway I decided to give it a try again.

Lit some candles, lit some incense sticks, got comfyish on the floor and focused on the flame and attempted to clear my mind. No easy feat really when you have as much on your mind as I currently do but that's besides the point.

So here I am 2.30 in the morning sitting on the floor, staring at this flame feeling like a bit of a noonah cause I kept on thinking about all the stuff going on :/ And then it it happened. A peace like I haven't experienced before. It's hard to describe and I'm not going to try, that would just be silly. Suffice it to say, I may give this meditation thing another try.

Anyway that's actually not why I started this post really but it seemed appropriate to share considering that what I actually wanted to say comes out of this experience. When I finally started to get a little chilly at around 3.45 and blew out my candles and got up off the floor, a verse out of a song was rattling round my head, actually can't seem to get rid of it even now so I thought I'd share it. Not to much of a fan Robbie Williams although I will admit to adoring one of his songs but this line just seems so important right now for so many different reasons.

So as Robbie Williams says

" If you're willing to change the world

Let LOVE be your energy

I can't contain how I feel

When your love shines down on me"

Hope you all have a day filled with LOVE, Laughter and Light
