This week, and entering into June, the energy will become expansive. Pushing us to move ahead, while also trying to pull us into a past idea of the future that we may no longer fit into.
This period requires that each of us not loose sight of
what we have lost and gained,
and what we have gained within the (perceived) losses
of the year thus far.
Not everything will be “recovered”.
Yet some of it will.
There is challenge in this
but freedom, as well.
As the reality of our personal experience unfolds,
glimpses of the lighter and brighter road ahead will begin appearing.
Still the darker side of things will remind us of its continued presence.
Do not be afraid.
Trust your heart
and your intuition
and let your desire for a joyful, purposeful life
dictate the energy around you.
Consider these words…
“Here is the world.
Beautiful and terrible things will happen. Don’t be afraid.
It is a world of magic and mystery,
of deep darkness and flickering starlight.
It is a world where terrible things happen and wonderful things too.
It is a world where
goodness is pitted against evil,
love against hate,
order against chaos,
in a great struggle
where often it is hard to be sure who belongs to which side
because appearances are endlessly deceptive.
Yet for all its confusion and wildness,
in the long run everybody, good and evil alike,
becomes known by his true name.
The time is ripe
for looking back
over the day, the week, the year,
and trying to figure out
where we have come from
and where we are going to,
for sifting through the things we have done
and the things we have left undone
for a clue to who we are and
who, for better or worse, we are becoming.
But again and again we avoid the long thoughts.
We cling to the present out of wariness of the past.
And why not, after all?
We get confused.
We need such escape as we can find.
But there is a deeper need yet,
— not all the time, surely, but from time to time —
to enter that still room within us all
where the past lives on as a part of the present,
where the dead are alive again, where we are most alive ourselves to turnings
and to where our journeys have brought us.
The name of the room is “Remember”
The room where with patience,
with charity,
with quietness of heart,
we remember consciously to remember the lives we have lived.
Pay mind to your own life,
your own health, and wholeness.
A bleeding heart is of no help to anyone if it bleeds to death.
What we hunger for perhaps more than anything else is to be known in our full humanness,
and yet that is often just what we also fear more than anything else.
It is important to tell at least from time to time,
the secret of who we truly and fully are
because otherwise we run the risk of losing track of who we truly and fully are
and little by little we come to accept instead the highly edited version which we put forth
in hope that the world will find it more acceptable than the real thing.
We are fools if we do not live as fully and bravely and beautifully as we can.
Listen to your life.
See it for the fathomless mystery it is.
In the boredom and pain of it,
no less than in the excitement and gladness:
touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it,
because in the last analysis all moments are key moments,
and life itself is grace.”
