Fate

Of all the places you could be in the world right at this moment, you ended up here.

Everything that has happened to you up til now has led you to this point, this very moment, for this very reason.

That does not mean that this moment will be the most momentous or life changing event you will ever experience, but it also does not mean that it will not.

Each moment set before you is your fate. And at that moment, you co-create your destiny.

The events of your life are like a movie directed by the Universe to offer you a very special, unique and personalized congregation of factors that make up this situation that stands before you. Now.

Take a moment and breathe.  As if from a distance – beyond time or matter -  bring your attention to this moment, right here where you stand and reflect on how you came to be here.  What brought you to THIS very moment in time?  That is fate.

And breathe out.

It is all as it is meant to be.

You are not alone.

Another Sunday prayer (3)

Overwhelmed, I sit and meditate

Upon that which is beyond my strength to subvert.

What is it in me that needs to fight,

To scream, to pound with tightened fist?

If in stillness and quiet, I can find my peace,

Perhaps then I will turn within once more.

To That which is there, so pure in its intent

To endure, to withstand, to be, to love.
