CONFUSION

Does it ever seem that you take two steps forward and one back? That you are going on a path toward a goal and then huge roadblocks are thrown up and “seem” to keep you from your goal? Are these roadblocks Self-imposed or are they placed there by “evil forces” or other aspects? 

Think about a recent time in which you were moving along a path that seemed to be open and had clear sailing. All the things were working and you were excited that you were heading in the right direction. Now these feeling of success and no barriers may have only lasted a day or it could have been days, weeks, months or even years. Then “suddenly” it all became more difficult or harder or more complicated or it seemed that no matter where you looked or turned there was chaos where once had reigned contentment and joy. What was your reaction to this change in energy? Did you feel puzzled, put upon, discouraged, outraged, sad, angry or just confused. 

Please take the time to analyze your emotions around this problem or change in the course of your life. It is important to understand how it made you feel or how it is making you feel right now. Sometimes things change for a very good reason. It may be that your time with this project is done, it maybe that this job, relationship, whatever no longer suits you. The hard part is that you do not know why. Humans want to know why. You want to know why you are being tormented or treated badly when you have been so loyal, faithful, loving, caring, hard-working or whatever the thoughts are about the situation. Maybe it is just time for you to be done. Maybe it is a test of your determination to keep moving through the chaos into clarity. All we can tell you is to do the best you can in a situation. Be who you are and let the chips fall where they may. Continue to be the best YOU that you know how to be and to live your life in integrity and caring about the outcome. If you can, sit with the situation for a short while and truly analyze where you are with the process. How to heart are you taking others judgments? How to heart are you taking that this is happening to you rather than it is simply happening? Sit with your Soul for a while and feel what is best for you. 

The key when you are confused is to sit with your Self because initially you will be sitting in the box you have created called LIFE. That box is yours and yours alone. It has been created by you. Many of you feel that you control the box, but maybe the box controls you because while you are sitting in the box, life is happening all around you. As life happens around you the box is going to get blown back and forth, passersby are going to kick or hit or touch the box of your life in ways you would prefer to not have happen. They are going to jostle the box of your life. One way to avoid the discomfort and confusion of this constant parade by your sacred box is to expand the boundaries of it to include the chaos and the confusion and the not knowing and to embrace the sea of living that streams by you daily. Allow for chaos and it will have less effect. 

We leave you full of possibility and chaos.

Namaste
