Flying Blind ©2015 Joan Newcomb

The internet's been out in this area this morning, it's been funny not to be connected to the entire world.

We're so used to 'Googling' for information, that we don't know how to obtain it any other way.

As Consciousness we *are* the Cosmic Internet, and when we are clear and aligned, we are hooked up with our highest information.

What do you do when you are clear and aligned? Say someone died, you've been fired, you are sick.

When we're experiencing strong emotions, bodies feeling hungry, sad, tired or alone, it's pretty impossible to feel clear or aligned.  We're flying blind.

We've hit a fog bank in our awareness.

When you hit a fog bank in your life, slowing way down is a great idea.

I lived on an island for 30 years, and during foggy times on the ferry, they'd have a deckhand standing outside, looking out for boats or kayakers, while the foghorn is blaring.

Who are the deckhands in your life, that can be your eyes for you when you're in a fog bank?

When you're driving in fog, you slow way down.

When you're feeling your way, you're taking it a moment at a time. All you need is to get to the next moment.  To go a few feet without crashing.

You're not permanently blinded, you're internet is just down.

A step at a time, a moment at a time, a day at a time, you'll emerge back into clarity.
