The subtle tends to have the most impact, it often simmers within myself unseen by the conscious, later stirring, making its presence known, as its shape becomes tangible and something one can no longer ignore.It shows me the need to be able to take time to reflect and sit within myself, as one can partake in the creation, choosing the ingredients properly, assisting in the outcome, instead of being overwhelmed by the creation itself.
Variations, differences, allow me to look at what has been a way of life from a new vantage point. Exercises, altered states allow new thoughts to make a presence while breaking the strangle hold of the old. A hold I feel around my throat and my heart so well.
Yes, to be able to see and question what has been...to seek and ask for something new. To feel, to recall a way of being that I use to know, treasure and walk in.
It all propels me forward, supporting a momentum my spirit has slowly been building upon. Presenting me with numerous opportunities that show me my truth if I take the time to look. Consciously, I try to throttle back the movement throwing boulders in my way ... looking for that crystal clear knowing.........a knowing that I already hold the answer to, when I chose to listen.
The need for perfection, the need for the right decision to fit into my life and others, now and in the future. Distracting me from myself.
My heart will no longer let me turn around or stand still .. the momentum is sweeping me up, the pace is quickening and I am no longer able to close my eyes.
It is all about remembering who I am, how I choose to view and be in the world, what moves me, and what gives me desire and passion.
How can I deny this when I have walked in that space and tasted how it feels?
I know of its importance and I know what it means for me to turn around and head back down .. the way I have come.
Forks in the road, greeting me .... beckoning me ...
I feel their meaning in my life. I have been here before, it feels familiar.
I am thankful it only requires one step at a time ... one step in the direction of my desire. I would not have had the vision, or courage any other way.
And ... I recall when I took that first step .. I knew then that that small subtle movement would hold much power. What power, what impact I did not fully realize.
Now to simply trust the road that begins to unravel before me.
I love the way you wrote this...such a lovely bit of writing with such healthy implications.
