Lesson 102: Float Above This Difficult World
“Still, what I want in my life is to be willing to be dazzled - to cast aside the weight of facts and maybe even to float a little above this difficult world. I want to believe I am looking into the white fire of a great mystery. I want to believe that the imperfections are nothing - that the light is everything - that it is more than the sum of each flawed blossom rising and fading. And I do.”
Took me a few times to read that quote and take some understanding from it. When I read it, I get this feeling that it’s about letting go. Let everything just fade away and go with the flow. So you made a mistake, so you have a bit of mess – whatever it is, just cast aside the weight of your thoughts and don’t be so hard on yourself. We thrive through our imperfections and are growing each and every day, sometimes in ways we don’t recognise. The light can absorb all your negativity if you want it to. You can live in a world of wonder and awe, if you don’t bog yourself down with all the weight that you create. Definitely learn from the lesson, though you have the power to let it go and let some positive light in.
Today’s exercise is about thinking of something that you are “ready to cast aside today”. To open ourselves up to let through even a little bit of light. When I think about something to cast aside it’s my negative thoughts around having no one to lead me. What I mean by that is that I sometimes just have to figure it all out on my own and don’t receive the guidance I need in life. I don’t have role models I can go to. It seems like I am always a leader, in my own life and others, though I feel it’d be nice to have someone to lead me. It sounds like such a silly thought to have when I type it and say it out loud. I wish to cast this aside and trust the light is guiding me, and taking me to where I need to go. I think I’m shown my strength every day and I need to trust in the plan for me, even though I do not have a direct leader to go to. I just have to trust in myself.
