Unlike the cars, we drive we have many options when it comes to how we fuel our bodies, minds, heart, and souls.  It is hard to imagine how one thing would be able to provide the necessary fuel to operate in all the ways we are called upon to show up.  Yet, we have all had times when we seem to be fueled on all levels to such a degree that we were not preoccupied with other thoughts, we showed up with an open heart, we felt strong in our bodies, and we were not thinking about when it was time to eat.  If we look closer at what might have caused such an experience of being fueled to occur it seems unimaginable that we could actually find it again.  It seems to occur as though something is moving through us and it is not entirely of our doing.  But what may have we been doing up until that point to make ourselves ready to receive the kind of fuel that would move us into a space of wholeness?  It is not about perfection or getting everything right.  It is about having awareness as we go through our lives as to what fuels us well and what depletes us in all these areas.  We like to think there is one size fits all, but that does not seem to be the reality.  We try often to do what others are doing but do we really check in with ourselves to see if it works for us or do we just go with it until it breaks down completely and shows itself to not be for us?  Either way, we learn which is what it is all about.  God did not put us in our lives to be who we are because we would know right away the best way to fuel our being.  It is a process of learning and growing.  It is a process of paying attention and listening to the cues we hear and feel.
