Challenges on the path
The conscious path of an aware life, is not necessarily an easily walked one.
Very often it’s rocky and uncertain underfoot, you don’t know where you are going and there is some thick undergrowth to cut through before you find your own way. You’ll encounter lions and tigers and bears- oh my (!) in the guise of money issues, trust issues, surrender challenges and at times the inability to distinguish perception from reality- Truth from Ego, Love from deception and a challenge or disaster from a blessing.
You’ll experience the paradox of wanting to ask for help and reach out whilst at the same time wanting to shrink and recoil, feeling totally isolated and completely misunderstood.
Ultimately the name of this game is that after stubbornly trying to do it on your own and hitting your head against the wall at dead end after dead end you will hold your hands up and admit you need help, and you’ll ask for it.
But when you ask, this time it comes from a place so sincere, so humble, so painful that you find life breaking you wide open – in a way that you can no longer hide from the light.
And once you allow the light to find you?
Then you find yourself, your answers, and the help, love and abundance you thought was outside of you and that you wanted all along.
So to paraphrase Winston Churchill- “When you are going through Hell, Keep going”… Because Heaven is waiting on the inside.
