It is unlikely today is going to be the day when you figure
your life out. When you heal your past. Resolve all your wounding. Get all your
questions answered. Or know what is coming next.
It is unlikely today will be the day you finally manifest
all the great things you think will make you happy. Call in the soulmate that
will complete you. Permanently wiggle into some state of high-vibration and
invulnerability. Or complete some mythical journey of spiritual awakening.
What a relief. A day of celebration… of what you are. And
of the end of the dream of postponement.
You need no longer delay full, embodied participation in
the miracle as it surges out of the darkness, the fragility, the shakiness, and
the uncertainty. The invitation is into the opposites and the contradictions,
where that which is unknown and unprecedented is taking form, where the
energies of separation and of union co-emerge and spin out the relative world.
Today may not be the day for answers, but to finally let
your heart break open to the vastness of the question. To stand on the rooftops
and proclaim that you are not a project to be solved, but a mystery to be
lived.
Buried inside the glory and the mess, right in the core of
the not-knowing is pure creativity. This is what you are. Love has come into
form, somehow, by some grace, as your feelings, as your imagination, as your
body, and as the ragingly unique signature of the cells of your heart. There is
no greater miracle than this. It is complete. You are complete.
Return into slowness and into this current breath, which
contains all of the seen and unseen worlds. You are here, rippling and pregnant
with life, and there is no urgency on the path of love.
