I mentioned internal transitions yesterday. It has a lot to do with trying to figure out 'what I'm here for' and how to be my best. This is so much more powerful a way of thinking than the pathetic, apathetic helplessness I found myself falling into. Health challenges, especially when accompanied by the recognition of one's own responsibility in creating them in one's life, and of the likelihood that these patterns will continue and sabotage, are maybe better viewed as a crisis point, that impetus of coming up to a high ridge, pushing a heavy load all the way, and then over the other side everything becoming much better. I'm entertaining that possibility of breaking long-standing habits, changing long-standing ways of orienting myself to the world, and actually believing that I can make myself better, so that I can do more good in the world.
My mum called me on Sunday and gave me a good 'talking to,' along the lines that it's never too late to change oneself around, that I'm actually potentially in the 'prime' of my life, although that window is getting smaller, and that I need to get back with it. It was like the voice of my conscience and I feel so honored to have such a wise mother!
This morning, I did an interview with a very prominent raw food teacher, which will be published in the July edition of the Eighty Percent Raw Magazine - don't forget the June edition is just out today! I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to talk with this man - I'll tell more about it later, no doubt, but I don't want to steal any thunder ahead of time! But it was a message of self-love and of connection with the fact that each of us is here to do something special and wonderful - once again, a message congruent with the avenues of myself that I have been exploring. It is a wonderful serendipity that I feel so inspired and personally helped through having performed the interview in order to share his message with many other people.
Has anyone else had experience of 'coming out the other side' of a dark night of the soul? And has the universe conspired to bring you just the messages that you need to hear in order to find your way out?
