From the day we are born there are things to encounter and enlarge one’s soul. This is only natural. But now I feel as though the rate of expansion is ever faster as I set upon a trusting path, a path of trusting God to deliver precisely what I need, when I need it and, as I do so, I find I am caught up in things I never thought possible, such is the expansion through my experiences, my journey of self discovery and development.
I have now begun to contemplate a life with me having a high profile, something I shied away from most of my life for fear of being “found out”: “found out” as a fraud (not literally but in the sense that I am not as good at what I do as I may appear) and “found out” in relation to things I don’t wish to share with people. Yet at the same time, I crave nature and peace and things that do not fit well with a higher profile existence. So, when I find my create this higher profile, I shall have to manage myself and my life to ensure the two aspects of my desires do not conflict and become mutually incompatible.
Recent experience and learning about balancing oneself has taught me that harmony is achieved through negotiated compromise and the secret to balancing these two areas of my life will be conscious balancing of the needs of each aspect of my personality. That may sound vague and even unreal but my practice to balance myself daily has shown me it really works and that harmony is possible with conflicting interests when the needs of each part are respected and met in balance with those of other parts. The same is true in a larger context and is the potential source of a peaceful planet at long last, through careful balance and not through the assertion of power by money or force.
So, as I trust that today will bring me what I need and, indeed, the signs of growth have already born fruit in the form of ideas for the third attempt at my video later today, I close by posing a slightly provocative question: what would be possible for you too if your own life were to be a harmonious expression of the needs of your whole self, not just the pressing needs of the lifestyle you may have chosen, for whatever your circumstances, you have brought it upon yourself one way or another and only you can change them, if changing them is what you want? In other words, how might meeting all your needs and desires help you if you are ready to seek something else for your life, whatever kind of self development that might involve; finding inner peace, happiness, success or love?
