As the fog rolls in over the Marina, I can’t help but be reminded of how often I have let myself be blinded by the density. Living with your head in a cocoon can prove challenging when you are trying to break free of whatever binds that hold you. How do you let go of things in 0 visibility when you can’t see in front of you?
While the last couple of weeks have been spent searching for something new, I obtained some answers to some very old questions and just like that, I was re-introduced to the beauty and power of the Universe and the belief that change really does reside within all of us.
The past year has been a series of tests that I am not sure I was passing. But maybe if the essay at the end holds the most merit I can redeem myself.
In just a matter of weeks, my life has taken a huge turn down a road my heart didn’t really know existed. Proof that when you are ready to make the shift the Universe will stop at nothing to assist you!
A little back tracking mixed with some raw and vulnerable insight will be necessary in order to move this series forward. If you’ve been with me all year, you know that I landed a permanent seat on life’s proverbial roller coaster and it’s been a very bumpy ride. The band-aids had been piling up for so long, I couldn’t tell which bruises were healed and which needed tending too. With the help of some friends I decided to rip them all off and what lay underneath led me to embark on another four part series. (Each series will end with the same Universal prayer. The more we all read it, the more the Universe will hear our messages).
Part 1: The “I” Syndrome
Part 3 – Evolution
**********************************************************
Part 1 – The “I” Syndrome
The “I” syndrome will be different for everyone. We all have our own demons, baggage and trials and tribulations. But it’s how we deal with them that matters. It’s how we approach them that is relevant. It’s how we rise above them that is significant.
~ I’ve been on the run. I have been chasing my dreams for so long I didn’t even realize that I lost sight of why I had these dreams to begin with. I’ve gotten selfish and driven by money. I have been so wrapped up in how lucrative my pursuits will be that I forgot the humanity that fueled me in the first place. No wonder I am always left breathless just shy of the finish line. Chasing anything is exhausting. I haven’t been making advances in my endeavors because I haven’t been honest with myself. I have been so driven by how much money I need to have or the money that I have spent foolishly that I haven’t been present. Until now, I have been constantly wanting, needing, chasing and going around in circles. It’s time for change.
~ I have been obsessing about having a boyfriend only to realize that I wanted someone for all the wrong reasons. I was distracted and feeling alone and subconsciously thought, the answer must be to have a man in my life. As if having someone else around me would make me happy? How can I give my power away like that? Especially when it’s not even realistic! I realized that the energy I was putting off was all wrong. It would be inevitable that I attract the wrong people in my life when I wasn’t coming from a place of purity. When your energy is needy, clingy or desperate there is no room for anyone to enter. It’s clear that I need to be independent in my own happiness and empowerment. Until now, I have been constantly wanting, needing, chasing and going around in circles. It’s time for change.
~ I have been doing the same things for so long I couldn’t let go of the patterns that had become my defense mechanisms. I was still getting caught up in the occasional darkness and I was starting to feel like a broken record. I came home one night not long ago with a fountain of tears streaming down my face, proof of the injustice that had become my personal life. (or so I thought) I realize now that I had subconsciously become a victim to my own existence. The pity, jealousy, and envy, at my past and everything and everyone around me left me empty. I couldn’t see what important role I was here to play. I was wallowing and I needed to climb out of the trenches. Until now, I have been constantly wanting, needing, chasing and going around in circles. It’s time for change.
