Until this morning, I never truly understood the idea of the “Infinite” and certainly did not understand what it means to become Infinite. Upon reflection, I now understand and believe that the spiritual path is to become Infinite. Until we begin to release ego, we will always feel separate and apart from our world and others. When we begin to release our ego, our love for ourselves become our love for others. The needs for ourselves become our needs for our world. The hopes for our lives become our hopes for others.
It is this change in perspective and vision that we become Infinite. Until recently, I lived for myself for I only cared about my own life, fought for more money at my jobs, wanted more recognition for myself, wanted to be right, wanted to be liked, wanted approval from others, and wanted an easier and more comfortable life for myself.
My world has changed so very much since beginning my spiritual journey three years ago. I have come to realize what I want for myself is what I wish for others and my world. I begin to feel truly selfless for the first time in my life, and want the best for others without anything in return. I was sent to help students and others at my current college where the students and employees feel oppressed and live in constant fear. My job here as I was told by my higher self is to show by example how to overcome this fear and oppression, and empower others by example.
Everyday, I want to run from this mission as it is so very arduous, and my path is so very difficult. Because I am no longer living for my own life now, I am sent help from everywhere when I ask for it as I am asking for this help for the benefit of others, not for myself anymore. I truly don’t want anything in return for my service, except for a paycheck so I can continue to live. I know I can leave anytime I want as I am over qualified for this job, but I persevere every day even if great fear takes over me sometimes.
I believe that I am sent a refuge from this fear where I recognize it, and sometimes, I feel no fear or pain even when others try to manipulate me or hurt me in my job. I don’t really know how it all works, but it is truly the Universe working its magic. Infinite love and healing! (Copyright 2014 Living Wide Awake with All Rights Reserved)
