Recently, while hanging out by the water, I began contemplating on what made me feel good and what made me feel the opposite of that preferred state of being. I realized as I was channeling through different memories in my mind that the common factor was if my heart was truly at peace with an idea. Now whether that idea was in a form of a person, place or thing didn’t matter but it was more about where my heart stood on the issue. I must admit that I had been deceived in the past and have also fooled myself into thinking that some things were good for me when the universe was giving me every indication to run the other way.
In the last three years I have been in complete awareness of my state of being as being the most important factor in any circumstance in my life. Till that day at the water this idea has still held its validity and importance. Are there things going on in your life that you have no control of? It’s really a rhetorical question. You will find peace once you begin to realize that letting go gives you complete freedom from any suffering the human mind brings you. I have began to realize (through a mentor) that all of life is conspiring to get me as care free as humanely possible. If I were to just let go and let joy be my compass. It is when we are living in that joy that life truly works for us and not against us.
Begin, to understand that your heart is truly the key that unlocks everything in your experience. Pay attention and listen to that inner voice and feeling. It will not lead you astray. As, the scripture says: Be anxious for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication - Philippians 4:6-7. Looking back now, I can see where I was too hasty or perhaps not being expansive enough to entertain new ideas that would break me free from my so called human issue. I challenge everyone to turn your back on the issues of life if only for a moment and find the center inside yourself. It is in that secret place you will not only find your answers but your true joy as well.
With Love & Light
