Taking a Walk in the Desert
Have you ever been met with the demanding situation? Feeling like you are devoting your spirit & patiently chasing mirages, hoping to find a kingdom of rewarded efforts. These things that we are so undeniably invested in, reveals to bring purpose into our life. Whether it's discovered in your career, marriage, parenthood, relationships, developing skills or working hard towards a goal. When we pursue something meaningful to us, there are inevitable opportunities for evolving. Disguised as obstacles; the things we don't plan for but make a significant part of the expansion of growth. Learning to operate through these, rather than seeing them as negative, becomes crucial. As soon as we learn to appreciate the small moments leading up to the top of the mountain, our stamina will surge.
Understanding that our paths are uniquely curated to help us evolve, we must learn to accept the part which we have little control over. Setting off on a new adventure will inevitability be accompanied by a rather fulfilled journey, containing many lessons and teachings along the way. This is why we are attending this Earth. To learn and grow beyond what we thought we desired. It's success lies in understanding the full spectrum of the experiences, & not only focusing on the labeled "good" parts. While we are reminded that the universe has so much more in store for us, aspiring to work along side our dreams and aspirations, to help us fulfil our destinies.
How can we achieve this state of flow and collaborative endeavour in the company of the natural forces of Creation ?
Quite simply by surrendering to what IS. By not creating resistance by dwelling on how it "could have been better". We understand the Art of Alchemy; that by utilising the tools that we are given, as they arrive. Our powerful forces awaken, they become more resilient & sharper. Providing us with all it is that we need in order to complete our pursuit. Ask yourself this; would you rather play victim of the inevitable challenges or be an adventurer on a quest towards thy's greatest desires? We have the power to re-phrase any experience we've had into a valuable lesson. This only takes responsibility and inner reflection. The path we all end up taking will provide more than necessary, in return we require to show discipline and commitment in order to reap the benefits of taking risks and following our dreams. Stay on the path and cultivate an objective view on the experiences we receive. Always know that there is so much more conspiring behind what the eye and see and the mind perceive. Don't give up in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire.
We need not fear our destiny.
Until next time,
Namaste friends xx
