obedience...the universe doesnt give us orders we are not ready to obey. but why is it that when we receive an order & it is one we want to obey...one that pleases us...that we are sure is alignd with or path, yet that causes others pain & stress...we second guess our 'hearing'? And doubt ourselves... and feel guilty & selfish...
My friend, ladyhawk, posted 2day about feeling selfish at times for following her path. That really resonated with me and reminded me to judge the validity of the order not just on 'is it selfish or not', but does it clearly align with the path i have been given. If it does, then the path must be followed...with compassion & tenderness for those we love who feel stress, pain or insecurity in the face of change. Its the only way to remain authentic
