Galana Healing Space

Left the house this morning and got welcomed by this sunrise. Pure magic!

When I notice natures beauty I always feel the universe communicating with me. Telling me all will be well or today will be a great day.

I always express my gratitude for those messages and reminders.

And since there is always something magical and beautiful to find in nature, communicating with the universe is pretty easy and basically everyday is a good day if you just go out and look for the wonders, the small things, the things that make you take a deep breath, look twice, pause, smile. They are all universes messages telling us that we are loved. Enough. And always exactly where we are supposed to be.

Oh, so loved.

Today my mare gave me a good reminder of always trying to listen and understand.

We played a bit and then I stopped and just stood there and she didn't want to come all the way to me. Which isn't very unusual but the way she looked at me made me wonder...

After a while I got it, I was standing in a spot which she really doesn't like. I laughed a bit about myself for standing there, moved over to another spot and voila, she immediately walked towards me.

Her expression in that moment was full of happiness and content. Of course it made her happy that she could come over now and be near me.But I think what made her even more happy was the feeling of being taken serious and understood.

I could have forced her to come to me where I stood before. I could have not cared and let her stand where she was even if I was somewhere else.
I could have not thought about why she chooses to not come close. I could have felt rejected.
I could have laughed about her not wanting to stand in a particular spot since I as a human don't see or feel why it is a bad spot.

But I didn't do any of all these options. Instead I tried to figure out what is going on in her. I tried to understand her feelings and her reasons to act the way she acted. I was fortunate enough to know her well so I realised what was going on. It is a result of me paying close attention to my horses behaviour, needs and emotions.

I will keep her expression of happiness in my mind, when she realised I understood her. It will stay with me as a reminder of always trying to understand others and not judge them for their behaviour, no matter how weird it seems to me.

We simply don't know what others are feeling, experiencing, needing and wishing.
We are dependent on communication; which is clearly so much more than spoken words.
