The moment I am writing this, a new friend is lying at my feet.
His name is Doedie and he is exactly 10 weeks old.
The past year was a year of great change.
My wife Anna and I became grandparents of a lovely granddaughter named Jinthe. This week we will celebrate her first birthday. This young lady brought an incredible amount of joy in our life and at the same time some minor challenges. As from 4 months we started a regular scheme of babysitting and we were confronted with changing diapers and feeding her daily amount of favorite drink. Somehow and somewhere I lost these skills. During the next eight months, apart from the joy seeing her smile and hearing her little cries, I found out that this little human already understood the magic of non verbal communication. She is so clever that she exactly knew how to manipulate me. And she knew exactly how far she could go. Where words did not work thoughts did, sometimes even better.
In these first eight months being with us on a regular basis it turned out she was a hell of a master for us. The teachings are great, sometimes easy and sometimes difficult. The difficulty lies in the flexibility of the way I can adapt a new insight. The moment I completely understand what she wants or not, or what she needs, she smiles at me with eyes that can see right through me. One important message she had for me is that I needed to protect my borders, to stay stop at the right time and say it
with the right loving and powerful energy. When my whole being was in line with my thoughts, she accepted it and all was ok again.
Beginning of April we received the message that we could fetch our new friend Doedie. He is a dark brown Labradoodle and while I am writing this he is lying at my feet looking at me with his dark brown eyes. This little guy has a strong character and also knows exactly what he wants. And again I find my master in him by the teachings of what do I allow and what not. Especially when he has that look in his eyes with his little head a bit to the side, saying "don't you think I am adorable and won't you give me what I want?"
We need to learn him all the things he needs to become a dog that can be relied on in every situation. During these exercises my patience is tested and patience was not one of my strongest points in the past. I thought that I was well underway with this item but it seems that all old lessons are being touched again by the behavior of Doedie. It is just as if Doedie wants to make sure that I have made the right decisions and wants me again to decide which part of me I prefer to continue with.
Both Doedie and Jinthe want to take part in the beginning of a new chapter in my life. A chapter full of desires coming true. And I recently learned that desires summons Life Force, that wonderful dreams are getting real and becoming my truth. I have seen that happening more than once, in fact my whole life long, only I didn't quit understood the mechanism behind it. With the assistance of Jinthe and Doedie I am starting to see that the creation process is a process that starts by taking action in a direction, no matter what direction, as long as the end goal is crisp and clear. With that I mean that I have to be very clear in what I want, what I like and to go completely for that, without any hesitation. My whole being needs to be in line with what I want, and that is physically, mentally and spiritually. If I look back to the moments my desires were created quick and easy, I am starting to understand this mechanism. It is so easy that sometimes I myself can not believe it. And that makes that I need some more time to create hahaha.
I am grateful to experience the unconditional love of a child and an animal. Grateful to have wonderful people around me and a very very great privilege to be married to someone who can be my love, my wife, my friend, my mate, my helping hand and my coach at the same time. And she is saying that of me, I know! We together summon life to flow through us not only by asking, but also by coming into motion like having our weekly Argentinian Tango lessons.
