It
Is All Good
-
Chelle Thompson
As we become more aware and attuned to the multi-dimensional nature of the Universe and OURSELVES, we create many opportunities for growth. An important aspect of growth is honoring all facets of who we are. We cannot "hang out in the ethers" to escape Earthly events, nor can we deny that we are "spiritual beings having a human experience."
Most of my life I've operated as a warrior who marched into situations braced by the armor of my conviction. Though this served me well in the past, I've learned that it is no longer necessary, or even desirable. The key is "Stepping out fearlessly, KNOWING all is well" AND feeling the simultaneous presence of fear in my body.
These polarities are nuances of the same continuum ... ME. I cannot espouse my Expanded Self and deny my Humanity. No one would consider rising above feelings of dauntlessness, inner peace, joy or hope. However, rising above fear, anxiety, sadness or despair does not honor what is going on in our bodies, in a particular timeframe. Embracing our fears and lovingly moving through (not above) them does NOT block our path, as long as we stay clear in our Intent and Knowingness.
Following is a poem I wrote several years ago when I shifted my perception and recognized that EVERY moment of my life has been a blessing —
"The Journey"
First came the inventory years ... taking everyone else's,
While fearfully ensconced in those walls of 'perfection;'
An undesired desired destiny of repetitive lesson sparked
The faintest Light of Dawn, and I finally focused on me.
I confronted childhood issues, releasing my anger and pain;
Adult lessons continued, happily they were different this time;
With each new challenge I came closer to the Truth,
And intuitively battled to free my path of detours.
There were no wrong directions ... just longer paths;
Everything was a gift that led me towards Awareness;
I learned my emptiness wasn't fillable externally,
It had to be filled with ME — seemed simple, but how?
Then came the Light: I was ALREADY complete, for
It's our Divine Nature that makes our 'cup runneth over.'
Oneness was my quest when I stepped into this lifetime,
And my Opportunity to aspire? — A childhood called 'dysfunction.'
