Walking the Path
Many times
in our lives we feel confused, we don’t understand our purpose on earth and
sometimes, we don’t feel anything good about our lives. We feel stuck, lost and often lose hope. This
state of confusion happens to everyone or must have happened to each and every
one of us in one or many stages of life, and it is indeed one of the most
natural feelings of being human. However no one has ever known the future, as
it can be known only when we make our way through the present, one has to go
through the whole process, there is no fast forward and there is no rewind. The
present is where we reside and we all have to face it no matter good or worst, no
one can jump this process or even skip to the next level. We must learn to face
the situations, it’s never easy though but if we take all the situations with a
peaceful mind and a peaceful heart we would be able to see the good in
everything.
Chaos is not
my cup of tea as well, but over the years I have learnt to control my mind
through reading good thoughts, keeping good company, always thinking positive
and mostly feeling all the time grateful for what I have. We must learn to do
it one step at a time; if we look up to the faces of our loved ones and think
that our actions should be such that we bring peace to them this will richly
fill our hearts’ and life with peace. Nobody is alone here, in one way or
another our lives are connected to those we live with and therefore the first
step to increase the amount of love in our lives’ is to completely fall in love
with ourselves. Feel your worth, create that vision where you wish to see
yourself and keep doing the things you do in your everyday life with a grateful
heart and without even knowing your aura will surround you and take you in the
most respectful and safe place you need to be. You will be loved, understood
and even more the people around you will love your energy so much that slowly
with time they will start aligning themselves’ with the same energy. However this process will not become visible
in one day or overnight but only with time but you will surely notice the
difference.
In most
cases people try to see the fault in others, expecting others to behave exactly
the way they want or think is right. This is the main reason of all the chaos,
we create them. If we try to see people from their hearts’ and not by their behavior perhaps it would then become easy to understand whether to merge or
not with that person’s energy.
Discovering the Path
Living our
lives surrounded with the people who have different perspectives and on many
occasions when we are not understood, our views or speech are misinterpreted, could
feel like an indirect attack on our whole being. We all have diverse talents
and our thought processes’ are varied and often not alike, but amid this diversity
finding the balance between persisting with the adversities and yet keeping the
light alive inside the heart could be challenging as well it could bring
greater difficulties than we can imagine. For many years I was under the
impression that I have to follow the same path that most people in marriages
do, they totally loose themselves in the journey by accepting the pattern
marriages are designed. What I am trying to focus is that we often believe the
path that our soul mate walks upon is going to be our path throughout. We often
tend to lose our identities as human as soul, but life always gives chance and
we need to understand this. We can always take than chance and make the choice
what our heart desires to do, where it desires to be. It will be all difficult
in the beginning but if we keep the faith things change, people change and
circumstances too. Understanding and realizing this truth was the biggest
challenge to me but I didn’t let that craving to follow my heart die inside of
me. I discovered the path only through walking side by side along my partner in
the journey, through thick and thin and in the process I didn’t realized when
the paths diverted into two. This is
true that we hold hands of our soul mate, of our friends of many other people
we meet, but we walk our path on our own.
Knowing the Journey
Once we know
where we want to go, or perhaps we become aware what we would love to do in our
life, then the biggest truth that needs to be known is that in the times of
light and in the darkness our soul will guide us. Never feel alone even if we
have only walls to talk to they are not blocking our path, they are testing our
strengths’. We all are like tree whose journey is decided, it will grow against
every odd. The thorns of life might try to stop us or even hurt us, the mind a
true wanderer much like branches could grow anywhere but it will always remain
attached to the stem, our body. Wind will come to shook us from roots, but rain
will soothe us from inside and one day we will grow from a sapling to a tree.
Reaching the heights and blossoming even when our bodies might be surrounded by
thorns. Future will always remain a mystery and perhaps therefore knowing the
journey of life would never be possible but knowing the path is, therefore we
must rise above all the circumstances keeping the faith that even through the
diversities we will make it home.
“The bends
and the holes, I fell I rise, I live and I die, am walking the path till I
know.”
