Making Our Own Way

Without looking to anyone else to lead us, it is we ourselves who will now make our own way to the Divine that we are.

Without asking anyone else to define what that means for us, or to describe it to us so that we will know it, it is we ourselves who will now create the realization of Self being God in the world.

Without asking anyone else to let us know when we have arrived and what that will be and what will happen next, it is we ourselves who will now choose our path, every step of the way.

And if you are anything like me, that prospect is at least a little bit daunting. No one to guide us? No one to lead? No one to tell us what to do and how to do it?

No. Not anymore. It was, in any case, an illusion of not knowing that we used to cushion ourselves against the full weight of the responsibility of going forward into the future in integrity and complete self-realization.

Phew!



The way forward is dark and shadowed by our own need for certainty and our own sense of ourselves as not being ready, not being strong enough, not being wise enough.

I know that we are ready. I know that we are strong enough and wise enough. 

I know that we can handle this transition into a new way of being in the world, in the moment. I know that we can help each other in this, but that each of us ultimately chooses a path that is all our own.

Be of good courage. Be in the moment. Be in trust of yourself and of your depth, breadth, heights and wisdom.
