Lesson 234: For Some People...

Spiritual awakening is your unique journey. There are times when it can be overwhelming as you start to shift from a life that once was, to a life that is. We move from passage of pain to compassion and now we are currently moving into connection. We are opening our hearts in new ways. Today we are to think about how our heart has unfolded in the past year and in the past few weeks, how has your connection expanded?

I personally have learned a whole great deal in the past year. The most important lesson I have learned is that a world exists outside this little bubble we create around ourselves. Not saying that I was a selfish person, it’s more like I’m aware of me and those around me. Everyone has a story, everyone has a journey, everyone has their own internal struggles.

I have learned to be forgiving towards myself. I’m like the worst person at recognising that I am human and I make mistakes…. And that’s okay! I think I was so hard on myself because I liked everything being perfect but perfectionism is just an illusion. It’s okay for me to break down, it’s okay for me to have an off day, it’s okay to say the wrong thing sometimes (if I don’t know any better). I am just as human as anyone else and I have opened myself to learning the lesson rather than beat myself up over things.

Another thing that I am working on is to practise pure love. It’s so challenging. I think what I am learning is that I am practising more patience and tolerance of people. Understanding that each individual may have a back story to why they get angry over small things, or why they panic in straight forward situations or why everyone has their little quirks towards different situations. I come from a place of non-judgement and am always trying to take on a different perspective to accommodate others.

In the past few weeks, I’ve gone through and had a reconfirmation that we are all One and all energy combined. I always worry that I won’t find the right people that I truly connect with but they will come exactly when they are meant to. Establishing that people are closer than I think, has helped me in the past few weeks. I have established some great connections along the way and there are more to come.
