A NEW PATH

Awakened by the sound of life outside my window, I arise in anticipation of a new day, a new start. Yet somewhere between that awakened moment and breakfast, I find myself choosing to walk that old weather-beaten path.
My heart speaks loudly; the choice is yours. Do you want to walk a path of the living dead, or do you want to die into newness?Perhaps you could abandon the fear that holds you captive in the misery of old programming. Maybe you will listen closely to the song playing softly in your heart…the one that calls you to abandon the fear and walk that new road; the road of freedom from the false beliefs you lay carefully on the table so as not to forget that that you were taught to play it safe.

Will you open yourself to a path blossoming with new growth, decorated with garlands of flowers, and cool bubbling springs to appease your thirst for life giving elements of the earth? Can you? Will you choose a life path beyond your imagination and fall gently into the creative flow of the One?

What will it take for me to make that choice to walk a new path that I cannot yet see? Do I have the courage to release the old ways that feel safe, yet unfulfilling? It does take courage, but it also takes trust. I know that trust is the cornerstone of stepping into something new, something that I can’t yet see.

My mind tries to take the spotlight and lead me away from the calling of my heart. I wrestle with the uneasiness. The tension builds. The New Year is here. Then, I remember. What the Universe is calling me to is much more important than what I want. I take a deep breath and surrender once again to Its calling.

Every year is a new year, every day is a new day, and every moment is an opportunity to step into the flow, embrace my mission and walk a new path. I wonder what the world would become if everyone was willing to accept the calling. I can only imagine.

With Love,
Barbara


“The natural flow of life is not meant to be feared,
but to be lived with joy and wonder. Believing in yourself as a holy child of God and living within the natural flow of creation lifts you to a higher state of mind. Your trust gives birth to peaceful moments and as you learn your place in the flow you become a testament to the Greater Mind of God. This is what man must learn. It is the way of Nature. Yes, my child, it is the way to peace.”
