18 November
In the midst of a mighty storm one often stands alone, surrounded by such power and displays of grand proportions. And, in a sense, one is stripped of all that one once knew, vulnerable and small, without a clue as to what to do.
But, in hindsight, this type of situation brings its own rewards. In the losing of one’s past identity to self and this world of worlds, one is free to truly be, and begin to reflect a higher energy of universal love, unconditional in nature, and as peaceful as a dove.
Welcome any opportunity to cleanse your past. Learn to swim, and keep afloat, so that you may last the distance and enjoy the benefits that ensue. There are many troubled waters that continue to silently brew, hidden from view. Use these strong currents of emotion to your advantage. Open the floodgates with aplomb, and dive into deep waters, dispersing them as you go.
Once embroiled in the river of knowledge you will gain wisdom profound, and mature well. Your childhood haunts will be released, and with a better understanding of yourself, you will swim to freedom everlasting in due course.
If one only took the easy road and tested unknown waters cautiously, with the tip of a toe, one would not experience the full impact of the flow, and parched for lack of vital fluid, one would remain dry and dusty, lost in a barren land where illusion rules the roost. And trapped in a vicious circle of daily dramas, one would fail to thus perceive one’s destiny profound.
Experience the full impact of the consequences of your actions and you shall reign supreme.
