The Path

The spiritual path requires change. Kind of stating the obvious. Evolving spiritually is shedding the old and coming into a new way of being, a new consciousness. It happens by and through change.

In spiritual work, there is a leaving behind of less useful things…habits, people, thoughts, ideas and beliefs.  I think you have to be brave to walk this path. Sometimes I question myself, doubt that this is the best, because it can be uncomfortable, lonely, even painful. Sometimes I think the world sees me as a little crazy. Others don’t see how I see or feel what I feel. Courage, that’s what it takes to walk this path.

For me there have been AHA moments, gradual and painful un-coverings and practice, practice, practice. So, why walk this path at all? I’ll tell you why…I  have experienced great comfort and peace, discovered how to be in the world but not of it, and have come to know many kindred souls. I feel happy and enriched. I can’t imagine my life without walking this path!

I am willing to keep walking. Where I am today is so far from where I used to be. I believe my courage and bravery come from deep inside of me…from my soul…and from the Divine that dwells in my very being. I am in good hands…I am never alone…and I am grateful.

All is well
Paula
