What does Abundance feel like?

In the “real world” — driven by the Conventional Paradigm — we exist with a sense of scarcity.  For most of us, we feel we never have enough time or money.  We may also feel we never have enough “likes” or status or material possessions, regardless of how much we actually have. 

By contrast, Nature is driven by a sense of abundance. Plants and animals live and grow and reproduce as if there is plenty of whatever they need, and have strategies to manage when resources become limited. Nature exists with a sense of abundance. 

Since you are part of Nature —  made by Nature, fed by Nature, dependent on Nature — a sense of abundance is natural to you. You feel it whenever you are experiencing and expressing your Natural Paradigm.

What does abundance feel like?  

Have you ever been walking somewhere, anywhere, paused, and thought it just couldn’t get any more perfect than this? That’s the feeling of abundance.

Have you ever been playing with your dog, who is being silly and giving you unconditional love, and you had no idea what time it was or how much you had to do, because it didn’t matter in that moment? That’s the feeling of abundance. 

Have you ever held an old book in your hand and pondered the improbable sequence of events that had to have occurred for you to have this portal into the thoughts and life experiences and soul of the singular person that was its author? That’s the feeling of abundance. 

Have you ever looked across the ocean and marveled at how incomprehensibly enormous and powerful and timeless it is, and how miniscule you and your issues are? That’s the feeling of abundance. 

Have you ever struggled with the death of someone you love, and then realized that they are now part of everything everywhere for all time — and always were? That’s the feeling of abundance. 

Have you ever been momentarily overwhelmed by beauty, joy, or delight and were left feeling expansive, generous, and wise? That’s the feeling of abundance. 

The feeling of abundance occurs when we are wonderfully surprised by the first smell of rain, the first leaves falling in autumn, the first flower emerging from the melting snow. 

It occurs when you realize you have enough time, enough money, enough of what you need to be your best self and live your best life, as part of the whole that you belong to. It occurs when what matters matters.  

Imagine if we all walked around with this sense of abundance in the “real world”.
