By setting these as a goal. By intending to achieve greater understanding, knowing there will probably always be more to know though. So for me, it is not a rigid goal but one that grows with me. I move forward with what insights I continually attain. This gives me a sense of peace from knowing I intend and strive to follow the best course of action and be the best me possible in each and every situation and moment. Outcomes may not always be as intended / not always “good” according to my judgment — But in such case, I trust the creator sees my good will and can use this “bad” outcome to turn things for the better at some point. Inversely, something I now judge to be good may not remain so as time passes / more knowledge is gained / perceptions change. One step at the time, I try to find the way.
The first way I have gained a deeper understanding of the forces at work in the world is by engaging with them directly. Not only in my local environment, but also by traveling and living in many places. I felt compelled to experience how individuals, communities, and societies move through their challenges regardless of geographic location — in order to cultivate true compassion. People describe me as an empath, but I believe you cannot truly embody empathy or compassion without having, at least in some way, walked a mile in another person’s shoes.
Through this understanding, I have had many unique experiences that have aided me in my spiritual awakening, allowing me to truly see. Fulfillment is not something found externally; it is discovered within, through an ethereal connection to the light.
The second way I navigate the world is by leading with my heart, connecting deeply to the core of my essence. Only then do I feel aligned with myself and attuned to the gentle forces that are always guiding me.
In antithesis, I have also been on the other receiving end of the light, and at times I believed I was being punished a belief shaped by the strictness of my religious upbringing. Over time, I came to realize that nothing is placed on our path by accident. Every challenge is either a test to see if we’ve truly learned a lesson, an opportunity to release something so that we may gain something better, or a way to gently though it may feel to us like a stack of bricks crashing down guide us back onto the right path.
Through these forces and experiences I have gained a deeper understanding that has carved me into even a more heart centered person, while having boundaries .
I am very much confused at this point. I dont judge it. It is what it is and I trust it is the way. I walk away and the second I do- I feel I have to come back, so I have some inner force pulling me into studying and understanding, into the process whatever it is..at this point I dont want to make any statements, I dont want to guess or assume anything, I just sense this inner calling I have to follow even though I feel everything is going apart regardless my ways of understanding life. As Tony advised me on Monday – wake up and fall asleep knowing it is all creator, go to sleep and ask for keeping you in this knowing.
