Sitting With Mystery

10/18/2015

“Life is lived through us.” T. Moore. “Life is the dancer and we are the dance.” E. Tolle

My life as it currently stands is akin to a blank canvass, on which I find myself in a unique position to paint whatever I wish. This is technically true for everyone in that we each have a choice to do what we will with the life we are given. It’s like the quote from the book “The Alchemist” that I am reminded of from time to time: “when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” This is an important truth that is often rejected due to skepticism, unfortunately. The idea that the powers that be would dare to bring us exactly what we want is just too good to be true.
I am not sure about you, but I wholeheartedly believe that I am worthy of an abundant life. But as I prepare to carve out the life that I envision – a life that reflects what I would consider to be abundant – I am uncertain as to what the vision fully entails. There are a few things that I know would be included. I see myself doing work that I love, deepening my spirituality, being of service, and traveling; these things get a check mark for “manifestation in progress.” But I have other desires that seem less attainable, and I feel pressure to add more color to my vision, going beyond just a sketch. It is a mystery that fills the space between where I am, and where I wish to be on my journey toward authentic living. Though I am excited for the opportunity to dream big, it is unsettling that a clear map of the big picture has yet to be drawn. Like most people, I am accustomed to having a plan. But as the Yiddish proverb goes – We plan; God laughs. This new plan is a curious one devoid of strategy.

While vacationing in Mexico last week, I attempted to find my way back to a restaurant I had visited only once before by taxi. I was driving a golf cart, by myself, and even though I had an idea of where the restaurant was located, I did not remember exactly. I wound up getting lost, and then considered that if I stopped trying to find it, it would most likely appear. That's what happened. A big tiled sign that read “Mango Café” with an arrow pointing in the direction I needed to take was revealed. Talk about divine timing. Needless to say, this experience reminded me of why it was so important to pay attention to signs and synchronicity. It was a metaphor that brought instant relief from a growing and urgent need to know exactly how my life’s vision would unfold.

As I begin to discover where this next chapter leads, I accept and recognize that the best route involves me following the hunches of my heart. When I feel uncertain, I can loosen my focus and get present. I can reassure myself that all that is lost will be found. Of course these things are much easier said than done, and require a deep faith. But I know for certain that the signs will eventually reveal themselves; what is supposed to happen, will, as if by magic like my experience in Mexico. If there is a simple and soulful intention to get to where I want to be, I trust without a doubt that the universe will conspire in helping me to achieve it.

Check your horoscopes to see what’s in store this week ahead, and don’t forget to read for your Ascendant sign.

I said this before, but it remains true...we are always on the same page!!! Everything written here resonates strongly with me at this moment in life and I, too, believe wholeheartedly that I am worthy of an abundant life & that if I pay attention, my Creator God, will show me the way. Beautiful!

Many years ago, when I lived in Bali, I was coming home from dinner in town. I decided to step off the path and take a shortcut I had taken during the day. A few steps off the path and I was totally and completely lost in the darkness. A jungle darkness, far from any electric light. I figured I'd have to stay there until dawn. And then I heard a motorcycle. A man drove up, I told him I was lost in the dark. He laughed and took me home.

What an experience, Olivia Ji. I've been to Bali, and I would hate to get lost in the jungle there. I'm glad there was a man on a motorocycle available to bring you back to home. Thanks for your comment.

Timely. This resonated with me in ways I cant describe. I know what you say to be true, yet, i still don't follow it. It is truly easier said then done. Thanks for the reminder to get present and be.

Hi Leatrice! "Timely" is what happens when the universe (or God, or Allah, or Spirit) conspires on your behalf :-) I'm glad this post resonates. It is hard to remember these simple truths.

Yep... you could have closed with the title alone. "Sitting with Mystery" Ohhhh the deliciousness of the unknown

I welcome the fog to envelope us all & I can't wait to see what's unveiled once the shroud evaporates

Hey Mrs Rogers
I been reading a lot of you message that comes to my email.
All of it make sense to me in my daily life.
So I have one question.
If I have my duck in a row; why its so hard to get over or cross over the hump.
