My Journey Beyond Myself
Part Six — take a moment, observe your surroundings
When 2024 pulled up to the gate and rang the doorbell, I answered by opening the book “The Untethered Soul” by Michael A. Singer.
Mr. Singer doesn’t waste any time and begins with the not-so-simple task of awakening consciousness. I’m still in chapter one.
In an effort to share my journey, learn about and have faith in myself, I’m sharing my journal entries here. I respect that your life experiences and soul journeys may look very different from mine and ask only that you respect my soul journey as well.
Come to know the one who watches the voice, and you will come to know one of the great mysteries of creation. — Michael A. Singer
Lesson Six: Take a moment, observe your surroundings
Mr. Singer’s prompt: “Observe your surroundings. Write down what you see outside of yourself.”
Here’s how it went:
Enter: old, old lady (OOL) and the young woman (YW)
OOL: Ready . . . set . . . go!
YW: What??
OOL: Observe your surroundings. What do you see around you? Hurry!
YW: Why me? Technically, I’m not even here. I’m you from many, many decades ago — remember?
