What do you really want?

As we drop deeper into winter let us take time to take stock, to drop deeper into ourselves. In these changing time, we are experiencing a lot of uncertainty. How do we face all that is uncertain?

Everything you have said or done was exactly what you were meant to say and do. Everything you wanted to say and do, but didn’t say and do, was exactly how it was meant to be. Give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done. But how can this be, I made a mess, I made a mistake and I get a pat on the back? I offer you this answer. We require some measure to gauge the quality of the Life we aspire to. Good and bad are one such gauge used for centuries and they too have done a good job. As more and more change takes hold and old institutions and systems of thought are questioned, the gauge of good and bad is slowly transmuting into a lighter energy, something not so black and white, dark and light, something that says that everything we do and say, though at times it may be difficult, is exactly what is meant to be, for all that is unfolding is exactly in accordance with the Divine plan, of which we are all, without exception, a part. The Divine has a plan. The Divine desires the unfolding of this plan and so it is

This is the word I would like to focus on in this moment, desire, a word which has, in recent centuries and in many countries, been used mainly in the realm of sexual activity. But it has a vast reach, at times smashing through the prejudices of centuries controlled imbalanced and extremely hurtful sexual expression. It burns through all oppression effortlessly and sets the stage for us all to stand in the power of our hearts, of our whole being that has desired to mate and thus create a hunan being, that has desired to create humanity, the same desire that has created the world, the planets, the stars, the universe, the whole show that we are privileged to witness in every moment of our day. It is desire that creates your moment now.

As you take stock in this moment, as you ask yourself how you are going to face all that is happening, all that is coming your way, it is time to take the focus away from choosing good or bad, the right choice, the wrong choice, the best choice, the worst choice. It is time for desire, what do you really want, what do you really love, what do you really desire?

‘Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray’
