Face it, we’re all Funguys!

I had a beautiful walk in the woods yesterday and noticed that there are lots of individualistic fungi growing on nearly everything out there!

Fungi live on an extremely fine and articulate neural network called mycelium (a natural version of the Internet) that helps all plants live, eat and communicate with each other.    The Fruit that manifests from this organization of awareness and connection, is the Mushroom.  I believe I too am just a fruited (hey, watch it) body from a field of awareness and biology.

So, I guess it turns out, I’m a fungi.  And so are you.

 

 

 

 

 

Some of us feed off of Coniferous trees, Peat, or Business, or Law.

Some of us thrive on Oaks, or Apple trees, or Spirituality, Health, or Technology.

 

Some of us grow best and feed from straw, or Willows, or Nature, or Kindness or Family.

The beauty of it is that None of us are the same. Thankfully, we each need a different substrate to grow  in so that the world will thrive in different shapes and colors.

*** But here’s the IMPORTANT part****

But WHAT we all do – is the same!    Fungi can break down the cellulose in wood  and create a new living soil where insects and new seeds and birds and plants will thrive.  Like them, We ALL take the wood, the stiffness of past Energy, and break it down and re-purpose it.    We bring new life to it.    We make it useable to a  new generation.

Each of YOU breathe new Life into something, for the next generation.   You each give old ideas new awareness!  You and I take the static and again make it something dynamic!

And the Forests, the Universe, looks back at you and smiles, and says Thank You for your part.

The Top 7 Ways You Rock My Boat

Mother Teresa once said, “I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.”    You do that.  Everyday.

Your Family, your Friends, your Readers, and countless strangers – all feel daily ripples that YOU create by what you throw out there. You throw letters and punctuation. Sometimes you throw glances, voice inflections, actions or laughter.

You create waves endlessly, and most of them go unnoticed by you.   

But – DON’T think it goes unnoticed, or isn’t felt by anyone.    YOU MATTER!

 Did you know-

1. That quite a few people saw your message, your post or your photo on a social post, and it Inspired them, made them Laugh, or just helped them FEEL GOOD!! Even though they didn’t take the time to “Like” or “Favorite” it, you still touched their day.  Quietly, there is an appreciation of YOU. (And the karmic Universe is Not Deaf, either.)
2. Do you know that the person you smiled at today -who was having a rough day – YOUR smile gave them a needed positive lift that pushed their own confidence into a better place! They are beginning to feel whole again, thanks to you.
3. The person whom you allowed to cut you off in traffic today (who was busy focusing on a personal crisis in their life) Appreciated Your Kindness.  They thank you, let it go.
4. That extra $Tip that you left for your food/drink server was the last little amount they needed to pay their bills this week, or buy a gift for someone they love. Maybe it just added to their own feeling of “I AM WORTHY”.   You rocked it.
5. The cashier who made a mistake, and You recognized it as just that- a simple mistake that you might have made at one time as well.   She appreciates you for your understanding and helped her feel that she CAN do this new job and Things will get better!
6. The stranger that saw YOU do something well, was inspired to try again. 
7. That wonderful laughter of yours, lifted me, it warmed me, and reminded me “Life IS Good.” Thank YOU!!!

There are endless ripples YOU create every day, but just don’t see or know about!

Like the ringing of a bell.  Just because YOU no longer hear the sound, doesn’t mean the sound wave, or vibration, has stopped.  It didn’t.

Energy ripples endlessly.  Thanks – You Rock My Boat, my friends!
