• Why I’m in NY state
• Who do you report to?

In the first days of May I flew to northern New York State to assist my friend Sherryl Lin and her family as she moved into the final months of her life.  It’s something I have done many times, especially during my 12 WalkAbout years.

Many of you here know Sherryl Lin Taylor, formerly Frauenglass, a gifted healer and authentic journeyer of spiritual paths who always maintained an active FaceBook page.  In February of this year she was diagnosed with a glioblastoma brain tumor.  They are currently always terminal and treatment to prolong life is aggressive.  

After careful consideration she and her husband decided against treatment and in favor of quality of life instead of the aggressive treatments giving minimal life extension. Her prognosis was 4-6 months. I joined them in May, when it became necessary for her to have regular assistance.

From diagnosis through her entire progress home, she, her husband and their 4 year old daughter/granddaughter have felt swaddled in a deep sense of peace, held and affirmed in their decision by the support of friends and family, both in the physical and “unseen” worlds. 

Sherryl Lin passed last week, in the afternoon of June 23rd, shortly after her husband, Brian, and I visited her.  It was obvious the time was near and we knew it was likely we wouldn’t be there with her because the hospice house she’d recently transferred to was over an hour away.  We trusted it would happen in the right way, knowing that sometimes it’s easier for a person to depart life if loved ones aren’t there.  Perhaps that was the case for her.

For the next 3 weeks, to honor the bold and courageous life of a gifted woman and friend of 17 years, I’ll share a few passages from her book, Wise Beyond Your Fears. 

It’s a book of common sense and uncommon wisdom, one that contains many AHA moments and has helped many people through life’s confusions and rough patches. While you read the excerpt, send love and prayers to her, her husband and their little daughter.

The family incurred many expenses not covered by insurance and some of you may want to make a financial gift to them.  Here is their GoFundMe link.  Alternatively, you can email me for assistance with your donation.  I know it would be gratefully accepted.

Her book is comprised of short pieces and today’s excerpt shows the honest, transparent approach of her writing.

Frailties

Some mornings I feel more awake than others, and it has nothing to do with how many undisturbed hours I slept.  I am referring to another level of awakeness. 

Despite my years of spiritual exploration, meditation practices and work on myself, I still have those very human tendencies to worry about trivial things, obsess about the past, chase after an elusive future, and at times, appear to be completely oblivious to what is really going on around me.

I could use this awareness to beat myself up for not living up to some ideal that I made up in my head, but I know I am just doing the best I can in each moment.  If I look at how I behaved ten years ago, or even a year ago, I see how far I have traveled on the path of living a more meaningful life of freedom and truth.

If I am totally honest here, I will admit that it is kind of fun to check out and just roll with life instead of trying to get it right.  I have found that some of my most creative moments occur in the spaces where I take a break from reality and give up on the idea of acting responsibly. Who do I have to report to anyway?

(Frailties, excerpted from Wise Beyond Your Fears, by Sherryl Lin)

Isn’t that a great question? “Who do I have to report to anyway?”  That’s one that useful in many areas of our lives, right?

The photo today is of the main RoundHouse at Pompanuck Farm. It’s a rustic eco-retreat owned by friends of Sherryl Lin and Brian, where I’ve stayed while assisting the Taylors. It’s in the country and very beautiful, I feel so lucky to stay here.  

I posted more photos on my Instagram and Facebook. You can access them from the buttons on this page or for Instagram use: @mma_hulili

I’ll be leaving here after a period of rest. I think I’ll drive, taking a road trip home, visiting friends along the way. As many of you know, road trips have always been one of my best ways to refuel, integrate and gather myself and my thoughts.

Look for more from Sherryl Lin, and me, next week,

Until then, may you find peace and balance in whatever you face today and onward.
Much love,
💗 Mayet Leilani

• Are you incomplete?
• Meet your twin flame

Sometimes it’s felt as an intense longing for partnership or the one most important significant other.   You may wish for a special someone who truly understands you and is a compliment to who you are.

Or your longing may be to be better understood by friends and others in general, but your experience often seems to fall just short.

What is incomplete? You are told that you should not feel incomplete.  But what if you are, in an essential and important way? What is it, that wonderful sense of relating that eludes like something you can almost remember? 

When you journeyed far away to earth, most of your beingness stayed Home – that is what you almost remember.  The longing you can’t quite put your finger on is your Twin Self that you left behind.  

That One that you are waiting for — the one capable of truly satisfying you — is the Fulness of you.  

Whatever you might call it, there is a part of you that you long to know and who longs to be remembered.  When you feel so alone, what you ache for is YOU.  

Becoming intimate with your Inner Being is so much more satisfying and wonderful and exciting and fulfilling than the greatest romance.  Your current partner might be exactly right, but growing intimate with the rest of You will make any relationship richer, fuller.

The merging you can never as fully manage with another, you can achieve with yourself.  Your Inner Being has your back, is always there for you, loves you like no other, understands you better than yourself and has profound wisdom to offer your life.

Merging with the rest of you, you do not lose yourself, instead you find yourself at last.

You are the perfect match for you.  This is the match that feels like Home. In this match you meet your magnificence, you at last achieve your most exquisite perfection.  You are there for you as no other can be.

It’s not about Soul Mates and Twin Flames.  
It is your own Twin Self, your Inner Being, that you miss more than you have even understood.

Get acquainted with the rest of you, your expanded self, your twin.   Become intimate with the part of you that stayed home and connects you now with the glory of the sun.   

Discover what is there.  Know this is what you long to do most of all. Find ways to connect.  It is as easy as becoming captivated with the idea.  Your fuller Self will guide you.

Realize who you really are.  There is more to you than meets the eye.  There always has been. 

The rest of you is listening, ready, responsive.  No search is needed.  Your twin self is there, always was, always will be.  It longs for you to make the move, to notice, to speak, to draw near.

This new relationship with you will be soOoo good for your body, you will glow.  Others will notice, perhaps they will think you have fallen in love.  Let it be true, go head-over-heels with abandon.  

Why not risk it?  Fall for yourself and in falling discover ALL that you are! It is a great adventure!

Pause as you read here and ask, “Are you there?”  You will feel your own stirrings in reply.  Try it now and see.

From my Twin to yours,
Love ever-expanding,
Mayet Leilani
