I was listening for wisdom last night. Some would call it prayer, some would call it meditation, some would call it learning from the inner teacher... whatever you call it, I was feeling lost and listening for guidance.
I have a few thoughts (advice to myself?) I'm writing down here partially to share, partially to remember.
Expect the unexpected. You're being called to a new life. Don't be concerned over what seems to be failed communication and a sense of wasted motion. Always remember that you are where you need to be and everything happens in good time. Be content to wait. Consider that even delay might be beneficial.
Get your ducks in a row, take care of business, be mellow, and wait on the will of the universe. Begin by being clear with yourself. Look inside. What's needed is to consider issues with care an awareness. Modesty, patience, fairness & generosity are called for here. Examine what has happened, your needs, and the needs of others. Are you placing your wants before other's needs?
Cultivate your own nature, all else follows. Face the future reassured and prepared to share the good fortune. There are surprises on the way, but by lifting yourself above the daily ebb and flow, you'll find a secure foundation on the bedrock of your destiny. You may feel overwhelmed at times. Stay centred, see the humour, and keep your faith firm. The universe and your own soul are demanding that you grow.
I'm still sorting out what "cultivating my own nature" entails. Most likely meditation and random acts of compassion but... I don't know... it's like there's a piece I'm missing somewhere.
