Unravel

Life has a way of inspiring me to embrace the absolute wonder and perfection that is etched within the framework of this existence. Through everything I have experienced thus far and all that I continue to experience I find that there is a greater rhyme and reason to all that occurs.

It was about this time last year when the pieces of my life I had worked so hard to put together began to crumble all around me. The job I had worked at since getting clean, I would soon walk away from. The apartment I loved so dearly was beginning to fall behind on rent, the car insurance had just lapsed, the bills were coming in faster then my ability to pay them.

The threads of beliefs that held my world together were beginning to unravel at the seams of my existence.

I felt so powerless in all that was occurring at the time. I didn’t understand why everything wasn’t working out the way I though it should, did not have the capacity to see past the outer frustrations that painted the picture of my life at that time. I couldn’t see that life was guiding me and directing me towards a path I had avoided for most of my adult life.

The path that would lead me to me.

For this moment in time, I have the inner knowing and capacity to see that all that occurred led me to where I am today. I had to experience the frustration, I had to fall apart, I had to let it all go. I had to let the outer conditions of my life fall away to allow me to see what lay beneath it all, to discover the path that would lead me closer to the life I choose to live instead of wandering in the circles of lies, beliefs and half truths that had led me nowhere time and time again.

I had to embrace the uncertainty of the unknown to walk the path that would lead me closer to who I really am.

  1. I don’t know how many times I’ve said the hardest thing is to let go, but we have to do it to be able to move on. There have been times in my life when I’ve used the words “leg go” almost as a mantra. One could think that when we get older it should be easier to let go of old beliefs, because we should already know the benefits of letting go, yet it never gets easier. When I get up in the morning and look in the mirror I wish I could say with a light heart: Mirror, mirror on the wall, tell me what to let go of today. Instead I look into the mirror and hope everything should stay as it is and hopefully no more new gray hair or wrinkles… :)

    Thanks for reminding me that I should look forward to letting go of old beliefs and embrace the new things I fill the empty space with.

  2. Hey Morgan, sorry to hear about your unravel. I know it’s not easy, it never is. I took time for granted and I was in your situation from a financial standpoint.

    Times like that really have you thinking where did you go wrong and where are you going to make things right.

    It’s a painful learning lesson for sure. As my brother says, it builds character.
