The Soul Leads Us

 




"The stuff of our lives doesn't change.
It is we who change in relation to it."
Molly Vass

Whatever challenges face us during our human experience are related to our core issues.  Each of us have lessons to be learned, and these projects often return repeatedly, even after we have mastered them.  They can appear totally different at first glance, but in time we learn from repeated mistakes.  It is with hindsight that we eventually see the thread running through the tapestry of our lives.

It is common to try to avoid these lessons at all cost.  We can isolate or become enmeshed,  but what we must learn, follows us.  There is no permanent side stepping.  Circumstances lead us towards self-discovery and with courage we shift our reactions and deepen our sense of self.

We continue to return to certain lessons and we find our selves asking, "What am I supposed to be learning here?"  Often times we proceed with blind faith which leads us to our self-worth.  Our soul continues to offer us the chance to change who we are in relationship to our inner selves, our worldly presence, and spiritual path.
