There are many truths that are inconvenient to us. If we let that inconvenience stop us from hearing the truth, from listening to it fully and openly, from allowing ourselves to feel it, then we are placing obstacles in the stream of love that naturally and effortlessly flows through us. We are cutting ourselves off from the power and possibility of Life itself. We are getting in the way of our own freedom.
What is a truth that is inconvenient to you? What is one that you’ve been covering your ears to? Closing your eyes to? Barricading your heart against?
It is no wonder that truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense. Mark Twain
Sit with it today. Make a time, choose a private, cozy and quiet space and sit with it. Let it speak to you uninterrupted. Let it tell you everything that it has to say. Place your heart right next to it and listen and feel. It doesn’t want to hurt you. All it will do is free you.
When you have listened, when you feel sure that it has said all it wishes to say for now, offer this intention by FEELING it as fully and as richly as you can:
May I be guided by this truth. May I be willing to hold its hand and let it lead me in just the way I am to be led. Let it direct all my thoughts, my words and my actions. Let me have complete faith that it will only guide me in ways that I can handle, that will be joyous, peaceful and effortless.
Then, continue your day (or evening). Stay attentive in a gentle, not obsessive way. Don’t lie in wait for thunderbolts of inspiration or magical events. Don’t dismiss them either. Just continue on.
With your Intention energized by your feelings, you will be led surely and effortlessly, and often in the most unexpected and charming ways, to taking the action that needs to be taken and/or avoiding the action that needs to be avoided.
In this way, an ‘inconvenient’ truth will guide you to the freedom, the peace and the joy that you have been longing for.
