It was one of those moments; you know those ones that take
your breath away. You think to yourself; 'wait a second - how did that person know that is exactly what I needed to hear.' The ironic part of these situations, is that most of the time - this context is spoken not directly to you; but to another person. And most of the time, you just happen to be situated right next to the person when
they are speaking. And the truth that is being echoed from their mouths dauntingly remains ringing in your ears.
It is like a little light bulb is turned on above your head, and all those stresses and worriers that you had been conjuring in your mind for such a long period of time all of sudden vanish.
I have always known that we do not have control in this physical world. Some call it destiny or fate, but whatever label you want to place on it - simply put; it has all been arrange.
I remember reading a passage in the bible a little while ago when Jesus was speaking to his followers. 'God takes care of a single blade of grass. He is always here for you.'
You know that in this your path is set, it is not about the choices we make in this world - that has already been decided. We live this life so that we can understand our choices, and learn from it.
Our physical form is truly amazing. We have the ability to do anything we want. Our minds are so powerful that we can heal our sickness; or bring miracles to people's lives just by touching them.
They can take us to places we never thought we could go. Journey's that we never thought we could face and obstacles we never thought we could overcome.
But at the same time - it can hinder us and block us from realizing our true path; our true potential.
I have witnessed vast contradictions in my time - one where your life is at complete ease and you had all the time in the world. Relaxation was just an everyday occurrence.
The second; thrown into the deep end of all of lives wonders. Mixing with people from all walks of life - feeling the immense pain and suffering that Humans go through on a daily basis.
After living in both realms I have understood that both pose significant challenges. Our minds are like children; they need control and boundaries. With out - they will run wild and take us to situations that we never wanted to be in. It is so beautiful, that it can justify anything to us to make us believe that our current situation is the best for us - even though our intuition knows otherwise.
I have learnt, that when you are relaxed and your mind is constantly wondering - you have to give it little chores to do. That way it is occupied; you can feed the ego monkey and get on with what is beautiful for this world.
Those times when you are completely flat out - you must stop. You must give yourself room to breath. You must put yourself in an environment that is best for you to reconnect with your True Heavenly self.
Through this - we can allow ourselves time to analysis our situation in life and ask ourselves if this is really where we want to be. Is this the best place for you to grow spiritually and be closer to Heaven.
