Storms…

Storms…After a few weeks of seemingly endless storms and rain, it was blissful to feel the sun today. It almost felt as though the seasons had reversed for a while, remembering what summer could be like. Life can be like that too at times. It can feel cold and ‘stormy’ when you were expecting it to be lovely and warm. It can also at times feel seemingly calm when around you the ‘storm’ is in full force!

Some would say that the secret perhaps is to have no expectations. If you have no expectations then perhaps you wont be disappointed as and when a storm hits. But if you don’t have an expectation for a dream to blossom it becomes very hard at times to stay focused and put your energies into the fulfillment of that dream.

Similarly, if you lower what you feel could happen for you and attach to the belief that if you lower your expectations then you wont get hurt if a storm does hit. You are also in effect making your dreams nigh on impossible to realise. This thought pattern stems from fear and if a thought based on fear is your ‘root,’ you will only ‘grow’ shoots in your life that are ‘smaller’ than those which you potentially could experience and be. You are putting out to the universe that you ‘want small’ and guess what? That is what will emerge through you and what you will experience.

It does take courage to hold onto dreams when you are faced with an emotional storm. The thick clouds cover you with an energy of disillusionment and you perhaps feel ‘what is the point?’ and tell yourself that nothing is ever going to be different or change for you. However, unless you get up from the floor when the storm hits, shake yourself down, give yourself a hug and then keep on going,nothing ever will change.

Don’t ever quit on you. The sun will come out eventually!

Namaste
