Hands Open for Expectations

 


"Because he believes in miracles, miracles begin to happen.
Because he is sure that his thoughts can change his life,
his life begins to change.  Because he is certain that he
will find love, love appears."
Paulo Coelho
Warrior of Light

Paulo Coelho wrote a small book entitled, THE WARRIOR OF LIGHT.  I have always considered it to be a small guidebook with significant uplifting passages that encourage the reader to  journey a bit farther, even when discouraged.  There are reminders of who we are and what we are searching.

Every human being is on a journey and no matter the physical content, the emotional challenges and the heart renderings are present.  We are all stretched and pulled, shaping us into higher realms for deeper understandings.  The trick of course, is to remain faithful to our own journey and not become distracted or gravitate towards the goals of others.

There are always kind spirits on the way side, willing to encourage or listen as we begin to stumble.  They do not have personal agendas other than to be good stewards to those who cross their paths.  To be totally focused on our destination disallows experiences with those who wish to deepen our experience.  Balance is maintained when we are mindful of where we place our feet, but to have open hands to catch the fragrant flowers falling from the trees.
