Have you ever experienced a blissful Opening?

Bliss Is Certainly Possible

Openings come in all flavors, including bliss. Bliss is extreme happiness. It maximizes our sense of joy and we feel fully alive. It is a magnified emotional state of tranquility, contentment and inner satisfaction. We can be ready for blissful Openings by focusing on happiness in our everyday lives and being aware both of what brings us meaning and purpose and what we do not want in our life.

Joseph Campbell talked about following our bliss (that which excites us and gives us a sense of meaning and purpose). Once we do so, we put ourselves on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for us, and the life that we ought to be living is the one we are living. When we can see that, we begin to meet people involved in our field of bliss. They open doors where we didn’t know they were going to be.

Our intuition can guide us to bliss. How? If bliss is singular to each of us, we need to be in touch with ourselves – mind, body, spirit and emotion. We need to follow our instincts as to what makes us happy and what does not. We need to develop our intuition and listen to it. Then when a blissful Opening appears, we can discern if it will bring us bliss or will not.

Bliss Elevates

Bliss takes us to higher places. Our spirits and emotions soar, our minds are free and we feel great. When we are in this higher energy, we are more open and we attract the best kind of experiences. It leads us to a greater sense of well-being and fulfillment. It brings us fully to the present moment (because we want to be there) and takes away anxiety about the past or future.

When a blissful Opening appears, we need to be open to its higher energy. Negative emotions bring us down and we may fail to see what a blissful Opening is offering. Our negativity could see a blissful Opening as something other than it is – a risk we cannot afford to take, an impossibility, a change we are fearful of. If we keep ourselves as much as possible in a higher state, we will recognize a blissful Opening when it appears.

Gratitude for our lives – the good and the bad of them – raises our energy. An open mind prepares us for new Openings. Developing our creativity and imagination allows us to be open to many possibilities. A respect for the unknown allows blissful Openings in, as they sometimes offer things outside of our experience that can have high value for us.
