Adventure in Darkness

"Going into the unknown is invariably frightening,

but we learn what is significantly new only through adventures."

M. Scott Peck

Our mindset colors our perspective. We can project a year of trial and trouble or a year of magical fantasy, and the Universe is happy to oblige. What we invest is what we get, so how can we be honestly surprised? Not only do our thoughts attract live events, but they also attract people who are ready to play the assigned role.

We may ask ourselves, 'Why would I create such a thing?" Once we accept accountability, however, we can feel our power shift. We can explore the reasons we chose to overinvest or resist. We can link our fears with our actions and begin to create new thought patterns. If we, indeed, wrote the play, then we surely can adjust the script.

Resist thoughts of discouragement for repeating insecurities dressed in new disguises. Open the mind to quietly observing new opportunities surrounding us. As we move forward into the unknown, your energy increases and your light shines brightly. Do not be afraid, be open to adventure and discovery!

 

No Longer Sure Footed

"The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur

when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy or unfulfilled."

M. Scott Peck

Life becomes an adventure when we recognize symbolic signs as they magically appear. Whether it is a word that consistently pops up or a recurring action, when we take heed, our curiosity kicks in. When guided off charted ground, we feel uncomfortable and vulnerable, but these are not reasons to stop.

Following our inner compass, we are lead to take reasonable risks, and sink deeply into wisdom, allowing doubt and speculation. Although we may not be sure footed, we wander rough terrain developing a true sense of who we are and whom we want to be. We form meaningful language for new communication.

Discovery is rarely a smooth paved road. There are rocks and boulders and perhaps a bit of swimming up stream. It may be tiresome and disorienting, but aligning with intuition, moving forward reaps rewards. Our outward journey is mirrored internally, developing a heightened sense of who we truly are meant to be.
