The Way Through.

The way through is sometimes challenging, heart wrenching and beautiful at the same time.  The way through is not easy but worth the effort and time it takes to travel these woods, "The woods are lovely dark and deep but I have miles to keep before I sleep" Robert Frost knew the journey of which I speak and how the dark and lovely forest of our shadows can be appealing to us so much so that we often linger in them for years until someone or something helps us to see the light of the sun peeking through the leaves in the canopy above our heads and we see the truth is somewhere in the wide open spaces and the unprotected meadows of our lives. So I invite you to take that journey with me for a moment to the amazing places you have yet to explore in the penetrating sunshine that will illuminate your soul's dream which lives from lifetime to lifetime until we embrace it's path and set out to commit ourselves to the quest of how to implement the mission set forth before us.  This mission is our life-path our true destiny the way in which we shine our particular light into the world.  And when we do shine our light something happens to us inside....we become able to see our lives not as a day to day existence but of a deeper and more important set of obligations to our hearts and souls to each other and to the whole universe that is unfolding as we set foot on our own unique path and change the course of our own akashic records, the fabric on the loom of life.  How we begin this epic story is with listening to ourselves and the voice deep within our hearts.  The soft encouraging voice telling us that we are the Divine emanation of the Ultimate Creative Force in the Universe. That each one of us is the chosen one and the hero in our own story.  We are the Merlins, King Authors and Morgan La Fays, the wise ones we seek are with in us and they have been the whole time.  And they have waited patiently for us to respond to the call of our path, the way through the forest of our minds to the shining world where we see clearly the flowers and grasses and trees in perspective, the mosses and the animals who live in this extraordinary world we have created.  When we see this scene unfold we know we are a part of it not separate from it but the very heart of it.  We can dance in the sunlight of our own hearts seeking the brilliance not on the outside of ourselves but from the shining light that lives in our hearts and souls.  We can shine it out to echo the sun and help each other grow and flourish in this amazing world. The forest will alway be there for us to rest and hide away for awhile but now we can choose the way through and get back to our destinies without feeling lost and abandoned because we will never again abandon ourselves or our path and the important work that is unique to each one of us.  Now we can see the forest for the trees and even more than that we can see the winding rivers of emotion and navigate that as well.  We can feel that which is within us as the truth of our humanity and the value of being in these beautiful bodies illuminating them with our Divine light.  Now we can shine like the stars and and be content with knowing we are a part of the cosmos and the entire Universe not separate from but part of the whole amazing intricate weaving of life and all that is there.  The way through is not easy and "we have miles to go before we sleep".....but remember that "the journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step" Lao Tsu.  And taking that first step can be scary and take much courage but the sunshine is beckoning you out of the forest so heed the call and travel towards the life that is waiting for you!!

Many blessings to you on your path!!!
