Our physical environment can support us in this evolutionary shift

I firmly believe that our physical environment can support all of us while we are experiencing this major evolutionary shift that is taking place right now.  We can look at what is going on in our personal and collective world with dread and resistance or we can welcome this time of uncertainty for the possibilities that can open up in our lives.  When I get into that energy of fear, I have to become very still and quiet.  My home supports that.  I'm not at all finished with what still needs repair and replacing but I do have my special areas.  My living room is filled with art that quiets me .  I'm an urban dweller and there are buildings about 10' away from me on either side, and I have no way of hiding them unless I shut out the daylight with window coverings which is  not an option for me.   I knew that what was most important to me was to splurge on creating a sanctuary in my back yard.  The bamboo now hides all of the really really and I do mean really ugly buildings and phone wires and I am able to focus on the stream that I had built and watch these adorable little birds come by to bathe, drink and sit on the rocks. The interiors satisfy my designer self, this outdoor space was designed to nourish and feed my soul.  Some of my friends have asked why I spent so much money on landscaping instead of air conditioning.  (I own a large 1926 duplex and wasn't in the position to do both after a major re-model of the upstairs unit and transformation of spaces in my unit).  When it gets unbearable for those few summer months, I just soak in a cool bath as often as I need to and I have this incredible paradise all year long.  I know I made the right decision.
