We never really know what lies ahead on our individual path.
No matter how much education, training, wisdom, or comprehension we have, until something actually happens, we haven’t really experienced it. All the planning, thinking, coordinating and arranging of details whether we are anticipating something or faced with an unexpected circumstance, ultimately doesn’t prepare us entirely.
The path of life will inevitably bring us more unexpected circumstances as well as a culmination of dreams, projects, tasks, and daily life occurring that we have to face.
The process of surrender, as of late is proving to be the greatest asset in managing the manageable and the unmanageable. Ultimately we are not in control. We are not in control of the things we plan, execute, attempt to initiate and accomplish.
There is a much greater flow of energy and creation power that is influencing us on our pathway forward.
For some, it can feel like a yo-yo, a back and forth pushing and pulling and never really feeling settled. For others, there is consistent peace and then the rug is pulled out and things become different.
Regardless of how life occurs on life’s terms, we all are human, experiencing an exact set of lessons our soul is here to have.
Therefore, we can’t escape reality. We can, however, embrace it, love it, accept it, align with it and ultimately become one with it.
To follow nature’s way is to align with the Tao. To be one with what is. Providing us with a more sustainable approach to life, as life inevitably brings more life. To flow like water, to bend and sway as obstacles come but not become ridged or in opposition, allows a subtle, softer experience where we harmonize rather than collapse.
In order to find harmony when we have an impulse to have aversion to pain, rejection, fear, doubt or suffering, we must learn how to embrace the inner depths of ourselves. Embrace the challenge as a gift that will breakthrough to a new depth of inner and outer light. Be willing to surrender to what is. And love even the moments which feel disconnecting, or difficult. This ultimately allows us to feel more love, truth, and light in those moments we are flowing forward again.
Happy Thanks Giving Day to you all. In Greatest Gratitude for our connection on a heart and soul level.
Warmest Aloha, Aakara Grace
