Here's what I know..
To everyone who has been trying and trying and falling off the wagon of late, this is for you.
I have learnt so much these past few months. And probably the greatest lesson has been that love is always, always, always the answer. We say that so nonchalantly, and we all agree that love is the way. But how many of us are ACTUALLY leading our lives from a place of love?
When I began my spiritual journey, it was absolutely, categorically to get my guy back. I desperately wanted him back for so many reasons. I couldn't live without him. He was my best friend, and we spent every moment together. How could I go on? How would I ever smile again? I just wouldn't. It was unacceptable for me to fathom life without him, so I decided I would do everything I could to get him back. And succeed I have. As I write this now, we are in the planning stages of our future together. He is madly in love with me.
But in hindsight, it was not even about him. If he left a second time, would my life again revolve around getting him back? No. No, it would not. Because I have stumbled upon something infinitely richer, more beautiful and completely everlasting.. My love FOR ME. My guy presented me with the most incredible gift of my life- he created the circumstances that catapulted me out of my unconscious living. For the first time I am acutely aware that we are deliberate creators. That we have the extraordinary ability to bend time. To alter the course of our lives. To move heaven to earth, and live right there, with magic and wonder at our fingertips. It is ALL there for us. And it took stripping the layers of ME back. And standing alone for some time. And gathering my strength and my wits around me. It has shaped me very quickly into a person I am proud to be. I have never been stronger in my life. I do not rely on anybody. My focus is on point. I don't NEED anybody else. I ADORE the people in my life. And those that have in the past created resistance in me, I now value their role in showing me my weaknesses.
Lots of you are desperate to get your loves back. But it isn't about that at all. It's about getting back to YOURSELF. Finding the love and joy in your heart that is available to you every moment of every day. No matter what. And loving those around you. Unconditionally. Loving them because the greater part of them is PERFECT and WHOLE. And knowing that they love you right back. And letting that be enough. If you can absolutely adore someone, and love every moment of it, for the pure joy it brings you to simply LOVE, they will come running to you so fast your head will spin. If you can reach this heart space, everything that you want will come marching right towards you. And you know what? You'll realise that you never actually needed it. And that the important part was the JOURNEY.
Please, don't miss the journey. There is so much beauty and love around us. It's right here, you need only pick up a tiny piece and hold onto it. And your path will light up in front of you and lead you to more. For those of you who feel lost on your path, please.. I implore you to look around you now. Look at the magnificent universe we live in. Look at the astonishing perfection in nature. Stand barefoot in the grass and just try to feel who you are. Because I promise you, you are SO much more than who you currently believe yourself to be. Feel your power. We are powerful beyond description. And when you come to realise this, your life will truly never be the same.
