REMEMBERING ABUNDANCE ~ An Evolutionary Act
Living abundantly in today’s culture is an evolutionary act. It goes against today's culture premised on scarcity, and designed to protect one’s limited resources, and to hoard power and access.
Living freely is not a popular idea, unless of course you are a Rasta living simply in Jamaica. According to Bob Marley “... Babylon system is a vampire,” and he advises that we rebel.
It’s a tempting idea isn’t it?
Imagine that we can rebel by simply choosing to remember abundance?
Yes, imagine that abundance is a simple a MEMORY that is constantly reminding us of its presence; even as we might be insisting that there is not enough?
* In what ways are you being reminded now of your ABUNDANCE?
* In what ways have you been resisting it?
* How might you ALLOW it?
I am truly blown away by this current RISE cycle! Currently, we are exploring ABUNDANCE using the elemental frameworks of BLOOM.
As noted before, this is what's up for us as a human species: realizing the abundance, we have and are, as the solution to our sense of loss, and not enough-ness, and powerlessness.
Realizing this is what our current RISE Journey is all about. We are building a global community based on the following ideas:
That…
WE are human expressions of an ABUNDANT SOURCE, that remembers, experiences, creates, circulates and nurtures its ABUNDANCE through and as us.
That…
WE experience ABUNDANCE as wonder and awe, thrilling adventures, spontaneous creativity, intimate connection and a sense of belonging.
That…
WE appreciate our ability to speak the highest and best of each other, to share acquired wisdom and presence, to collaborate creativity, to connect each other to the right people, and to give generously of our resources from the overflow of what we have.
That…
WE journey together as inter-connected beings who honor our unbreakable connection by letting each other flow in their own unique way.
That…
WE are like children, playing in an endless garden, accepting, enjoying, nurturing and sharing in the thrill of our human incarnations.
Imagine what is possible as we practice these ideas together; that everything becomes possible.
We are currently in week #3 of this seven week cycle.
If you have a moment, take a listen to last week’s session. It features a conversation with Kweku Aacht, the founder of the AWO Global Collective based in Accra Ghana. Kweku has built a community of over 140 members around the world, who learn, create and practice being well, together.
Kweku is also a BLOOM Guide who leads our Journeys. Listen, as he speaks in a revealing conversation about his experience creating dance music for the opening of the new Sadlers Wells facility in East London and the connection between healing and abundance, among other things.
Finally, just a reminder that we are getting ready for BLOOMFEST GLOBAL 2025. Our New York dates are June 18-22. So listen out for more details and begin getting ready to celebrate with us!
InBLOOM Always,
Olubode
