From visions to reality

Dreams. Visions floating in your mind, in your mind's eye. You can see it all. You can feel who you are. You can feel your gifts, your power right in your gut.

And then you open your eyes and the mind is flooded with the hows, with "I can't do that," I am not ready, I need more time, I need more information. I am not enough.

All the faith and trust leaves you like it was never there. The dreams seem like empty ideas. Too big for the small self you live in. The bigness of your own being, of your imagination, your own limitlessness scares you and all you want to do it go back and hide in the darkness of your self-made cave. A place of safety it is called, a jail of your own soul. This cave that you built inside of you.

You are scared. Scared of the world. Scared of people. Scared to live in the truest expression of you. You are scared.

But what is this fear? Where does it come from? Why is it there?

What is it trying to protect you from? What kind of safety is it seeking?

When you question what has never been questioned. You are met with silence. No answers. No reasons. No logic. Just utter and complete silence.

The trembling stops for a second, the heart gets to breathe for a second and the mind gets to question itself for a second. You ask again, "what am I afraid of?"

And yet, you are met with nothing but silence.

We have been trained so far into living a life so untrue to us that coming into our truth becomes the scariest thing that there is. You weren't allowed to do what you wanted, you weren't allowed to make your own choices, you were not allowed to express yourself. And if you did any of that, there were consequences, there was punishment.

You were shut down. You creativity stripped away from you in the shadows of school, the abuse from home, living in spaces where you had no space to be.

So you leave yourself behind. And as the years pass, you forget more and more of who you are. You are not used to being the authentic and real you.

With time, the distance grows bigger and bigger. Where now, you can't even recognize your own soul, like your old pictures.

But your soul still keeps you calling, calling you home. You could hear it if you listened. In a spec of a second, in the moment of rest, in a time of spaciousness, it finds a way and speak to you. Through ideas, through visions, through your heart's pulling.

It never stops speaking, just waiting for you to listen. To follow the guidance. There's a path, path that calls you, takes you home to yourself. And it feels so right, full of delight.

And when you open our eyes, we must know there's a lot you must see and feel to get to your own heart. To walk on your path, to live your truth and to be one with you.

There's grief, grief of separation, the grief of abandoning your own self. There's anger, there's sorrow. And there's a mind that is trained in fear, in hiding, in denying the worth of you and the divine.

It must be known and noted. This journey is full of scary monsters and things that linger in the dark. The dark, unknown part of your psyche.

You must become the safe space and awakened guardian to all that is scared, all that needs some love and care. The scary monsters were created to protect you and you can take on the role and set them free. To become the light that they have been dyeing to be.

You are free.

But you will need courage, patience and consistency to turn your visions into reality.

The journey is not meant to be easy.
