PATHWAY TO JOY AND HEALING

There comes a time on our spiritual journeys that being alone feels normal, satisfying, cherished, and peaceful.  I remember my past full of frenetic planning, doing, and nonstop moving.  It was as if I couldn’t stand the silence in fear of hearing or feeling something I was suppressing.

My journey has been four and half years in the making of change and transformation. Gone on those days of frenetic intentional suppression and subconscious repression. I also am beginning to project less and less.  Projection is when we feel negative feelings or thoughts about ourselves, but we are unable to face them so we project them onto others.  As a result, we blame others for our own fears, self loathing, and lack of self worth.

Today, I spent the day kayaking alone on a lake.  During this experience, I felt inner joy, peace, and true happiness in my life.  I was not regretful, remorseful, and sad.  I lived in the moment just enjoying the water, sunshine, the clouds, and being with myself.  I believe this is who I truly am, a woman who finally has found myself full of joy, bliss, and contentment in my life.
