"The most confused you will ever get is when you try
to convince your heart and spirit of something your
mind knows is a lie."
Shannon L. Alder
We label ourselves in various ways such as: religious denomination, political party, social club or society. As we evolve, however, are we adjusting our associations accordingly or do we remain bound by previous commitment? Our emotional ties can be difficult to release.
When we stay in a place we have outgrown, we begin to feel dull, confined, and bored. Whether it is a marriage, career or friendship, we have the option to reinvest or recreate our situation. It may be necessary to completely withdraw, relocate or remain stagnant.
When we become aware of our shifting situation, we may try to talk our lovely selves out of the truth buried in our soul. We may silence the spiritual call or squelch the yearning for more, but the unrest will not go away. If we numb our feelings, we will wander away from our unique skills and settle into the lie.
