⚠️ My Inner World is currently under construction. We apologize for the inconvenience. We cannot process orders at this time.
What does it take to make something happen? Once our vision is clear it is easier to hit our mark. Sometimes we need to go through a process that is similar to changing the focus on a camera. When this happens our outlook may appear blurry and unclear. This is because we are refining or creating a new picture. During this stage we need to shift our position and move where there is more light and clarity.
When a natural disaster occurs and the earth quakes, we are immediately reminded of both our instability and our interconnectedness. It is interesting to note how often we fail to recognize our connection to each other and to the earth until an event or crisis brings us together. Our minds have been trained to focus on what we can see. The problem is that our physical eyes and our perceptions are often limited or flawed. We only see what we can recognize. So if something is going on abroad or in the water or in the air, we may not realize that it is happening to us as well. Many of us treat our bodies and our inner worlds the same way. We assume that the inside is not really as important as the outside until a disease or an eruption occurs.
This is a very difficult question to ask when faced with terrible circumstances. But when we do have the courage to ask, it automatically begins to turn whatever current problems we are facing into an opportunity for growth and power. The question itself seems to pierce right through the darkness and guide us toward the light of insight and awareness. The density that surrounds our problems can become the fertilizer for the seed of possibility. Learning how to navigate these challenging situations is one thing, but understanding that the very same challenge can reveal the best part of our self is another thing all together.
Many of us have had the experience of feeling separate from the rest of the world, when all of a sudden we are on the outside looking in. These are moments in time when we are with a group of people and although we are there physically, we experience an overall sense of separateness and isolation. What is it that catapults us out of the circle into a separate energy current? Are we meant to promptly rejoin the circle or is there a reason for us to be alone and with ourselves?
Many of us were brought up to believe that if we do well in school, pick a job or career and follow it with determination, our life will be somewhat safe and secure. Of course we knew that we still had to deal with many of life's challenges but taking this course seemed to go a long way toward making us feel grounded and normal. Most of us can see that picture of reality is no longer in play.
