Full Stop
“Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.” Robert H. Schuller
Once upon a time there was a little girl who thought the world was a terrible place. The struggles were real and happiness was nowhere to be found. All her life she searched for meaning, for love and security. Her problems did seem like stop signs. They were a full stop, a red light that didn’t change. She tried going down different roads but to her dismay they also were dead-ends. There wasn’t a road anywhere that led home. It was only when everything else had been tried and she was out of options that she finally looked up instead of around. She looked up to blame and point a finger at what she thought was creating her problems. It had to be someone or something outside of herself, right? No, my loves, what she found was the very thing she had been seeking all along – unconditional love and acceptance.
Dear Angels, so often we cannot see what has been in front of us all along. We have a preconceived idea of what “should” be and therefore we miss so many blessings along the way. My childhood and young adulthood were immersed in pain and sadness. I am grateful for each lesson I endured because it brought me to the place of looking for the one thing that matters in life, which is my relationship with my Higher Power which I choose to call God, Great Grandfather, Source, Creator.
Dear Ones, when you come to that stopping place and have nowhere else to turn, please understand that it is not a punishment. It is an opportunity for you to stop spinning and running. Sometimes you really do have to exhaust all avenues before you find the freeway. There is nothing more precious to us than a soul reunited with its essence. It does not matter the path that brought you to that place. What matters is that you are exactly where you are supposed to be at all times. You are not lost and there is nothing to be fixed. You are only on the path where you are coming home to love.
Dear Angels, thank you. I love you. Namaste y’all.
Today, I promise to come to a full stop and observe before making any decisions.
