Your life is like a river, slowly meandering downstream, sometimes stopping in midstream because of an obstacle in the way and then allowed to freely flow, once again, after the impasse is identified and reckoned with.
We tend to think of our lives as separate occurrences and rigidly compartmentalized, each day seemingly ending and then another day appearing. But that's really not right as our lives are actually flowing as we continue to experience what it is to like to be alive on earth.
Your life is not a series of still shots. Even though each day is separated from the next, all the days of your life, when looked upon, from a higher perspective, blend together to form a complete picture of who you are.
Your likes and dislikes, your desires, your dos and don'ts, the decisions you made that led you down one path and not another, who you're attracted to, all of this makes up you.
Making the process easier of getting to where you want to in life is projecting how your life will turn out. You can do this through the process of visualization as you view each step along the way (each day) of your life as just another brush stroke making up the big picture of who and what you will turn out to be. Each step you take is adding more vibrant color to this life picture.
It helps to do meditation in order to completely understand and actualize the process I've described. Upon meditating you can more easily visualize people, objects, events and what you want to achieve more completely.
I believe that each one of us is gifted with something that will benefit others. Whether we chose this gift before we were born or it's an integral part of our DNA, I do not know.
Some of us find out our gift later on in life while others, the moment their feet hit the ground, instinctively know what their purpose is and who and what they want to be.
You already have an inclination for something you want to do whether it's painting or IT, becoming a health care worker, a Veterinarian or mentoring to others. You just haven't figured out what it's going to be and it can take time.
Today, more than ever, the world needs you and the gifts you have to share.
You are all part of a much bigger picture, a Plan, if you will.
Maybe, right now, you're experiencing something that will make you more compassionate toward others. Maybe you went out of your way in order to help someone else and are being recognized for it. Maybe someone pointed a flaw out to you you've been unwilling to acknowledge so now you can finally do something about it. Maybe you did something you're ashamed of and are finally getting the courage to apologize or make amends.
Remember, whatever you're going through is preparing you for the rest of your life.
It's nice to know that there is a Plan and not believe we were just thrown down here by accident, because we weren't.
