Signposts
Signposts – Woke up to snow –no surprise after the sleet and hail the wind brought us yesterday – as such was expecting a swim in the snow today. Alas no. At the river the drop into the shelter of the valley left the snow behind with no ground evidence of it except for a tiny area of hail stones. Deceiving though for the ground underfoot was as cold as ice. A white pony, almost unicorn like, gave me a watchful eye as I walked past and the birds were singing their hearts out. It felt that Spring was on its way, even if that may not be for a few more weeks.
A sign of Spring…even if that hasn’t manifested into the physical just yet.
What signposts have you had for something being on its way to you? Some aspect of your hopes and dreams? Did you accept this and feel uplifted? Or did you ignore and dismiss the signpost as being ridiculous and looking around your current paradigm think, ‘well that’s not going to work, there is just no way for it to happen…its not happened before, so why now?’
A signpost can be something that feels expansive. It can also be something that brings a sense of longing and highlights any dissatisfaction with where you are at currently. Recognise these and allow them to be. Sit with them as a possibility even if you are unsure how they are going to come into fruition.
Growth is a law of nature, a natural phenomenon. Logical ‘rational’ thought gets in the way. We can accept that a tiny seed will grow into a tree, but we can’t accept that growth is possible and a natural process for us!
Energy follows thought and what we place our focus on we create. If we think ‘… that is just not possible for me…’ then guess what?? It isn’t. We create that it isn’t.
A seed doesn’t sit in the ground and think whether it can grow or not. It feels the energy surge and goes for it. As human ‘beings’ the same principle works for us. But we have not been encouraged to remember that natural process and have become disconnected from the ‘flow’ that is within and around us, life force, Divinity.
I may sound like Yoda…but it’s the truth and spiritual teachers though out history have been telling us to let go of our restrictions and to reconnect to this core truth of who we are and are a part of.
So…how about starting to observe your signposts. Observe what makes your heart sing and also what gives you a sense of longing and discontent. Note them down – even if they seem unattainable given the dynamics of your current status quo. Allow yourself to vision… just imagine ‘what if’ what if this were possible for you? How would your life experience be different and how would that feel?
Can you afford not to explore and expand into your potential?
