I have never surfed but there is something lifelike about it.  We start our day and we look out at how the waves are coming and going and we choose which ones to ride.  Often without knowing it, we encounter elements of it throwing us off course.  Then we have options.  We can ride it, we can abandon it or we can fight it. At least we can attempt each of those. We like to think we want smooth sailing but we know somewhere deep inside of us resonates with the undulations of life.  There is a certain rhythmic familiarity to the undulation.  Our hearts create wavelike energy flowing through and extending energetically from our bodies.  While there is hopefully a steady beat, we all know how much we stop and notice when something peaks or stops our hearts.  There is a skip in the energy or something causes us to catch our breath. The curves and elevations of our heart’s rhythm like the undulations of life’s surprises remind us we are alive.  They engage us to connect with the power and courage of our hearts to face our lives without just smoothly making it through.  It is the undulations of life that open our eyes to what we are capable of.  Our minds might tell us it is better to avoid certain waves because we don’t know where they will lead. Our hearts are ready to ride them and show us how much the undulation will awaken us to the truth of who we are.
