What it takes to stay True, to follow your heart, to find the Courage when all else has evaporated, especially when sometimes the world seems to have a whole other plan.
What it takes is Knowing.
There are times in everyone’s life when their faith is challenged. Fear is often prevalent perhaps overwhelming and sometimes circumstances combine to deliver a blow that may feel like it has knocked us out for the count. What it takes in times like these is knowing which if translated means understanding who you are in spite of the relative circumstance.
The stakes are high and the main piece of which is retrieving the essence of the lesson, while nourishing your being to rise again.
The truth is the only thing keeping you down or out of the game is You. So what ya gonna do?
Honing of our spirit is ballast for the soul. Don’t believe me? Just ponder for a moment, a time in your life when you really did not know what or how you were going to make it. Or how you were going to be able to start again.
Now look at who you are for having traversed that terrain of unknown perspicacity;
per·spi·cac·i·ty (pûr
sp
-k
s

); acuteness of perception, discernment or understanding.
Who you would be without having gone through it we shall never see because you did go through it and you are who you have become in the midst of your journey.
Who you are now is definitively connected to all the life events, choices made, and whatever we have brought into this life to resolve, evolve, and move through including those mind numbing experiences which just abide in the inexplicable realm.
So keep a clear channel open. Listen deeply. Remember the multi faceted experiential attunement which comes from having weathered a few storms, and still have the Courage to move on to the next great adventure.
