Working Thru The Shadows

There was this choice made, and she knew it was for the best and that she needed to make this choice and that the choice was right for all of the right reasons, and then something happened. A magical moment where something caught a piece of her, but not the piece of her that had been caught before.

Rather, this was something that caused a stir in her spirit, this soulful connection point, or so that’s the best way she knew how to describe it. Uncertain of what this was, she had to fuel her curious mind to learn more about this situation. Instead of pursuing this magical moment in a manner that she’d done in the past, she waited to see if the other person experienced anything similar or if maybe she was simply connecting deeply with someone, as she often does.

This woman is always connecting with people on deep levels, feeling their energies, and hearing their hopes and dreams, as well as listening to their regrets and woes in their past and present. A skill that she seems to be born with is that of reading the energy of others, and learning them so deeply that she can advise them best on how to pursue their life in ways that work to align properly with their authentic self.

That said, this woman would often stir up a magical feeling with someone, unlike this one referenced above, but still a feeling nonetheless, and aggressively (in the kindest of ways) pursue the person.

She wasn’t in that season of her life, though. She is in the season of having spoken her truth to exit her current situation and live a life of solitude with her dog. Sadly, or perhaps mysteriously, she ended up going a slightly different route than planned. Here is where she sits wondering if the decision to end up on a slightly different route was God-led, or if she is repeating historical patterns, such as putting other people’s wishes before her own, or working out of desperation to make her life easier or is she simply rushing something because the circumstances called for it and both parties were willing to go this route?

There are far more questions than answers these days, but all this woman knows is that she is uncertain if her dog and she are aligned properly for this journey. Oh, that magical feeling she experienced, it wasn’t all in her own mind or soul or head; rather, the other person experienced it as well, and it surely was unlike anything either of them had experienced previously.

Almost as if each soul were a mirror to the other, and the connection seems to be God-led if you don’t count the human side of everything that comes up when we live in this world with stress, job issues, or whatnot. With all that said, she likes to trust her inner knowing, and has not always done this. The inner being of her entire world is shattering, she is an emotional mess, she is often found crying, and is ready to get her things and move to sleep in her car with her dog.

She is struggling, but is it from the fear of the unknown? Is it from the fear of something real? What is this feeling she has, and is it not something that has anything to do with her external world? There are far more questions than answers, but all she knows is that she often feels as though something isn’t quite right for her, and with that, she feels as though she should make a decision, but then that decision doesn’t logically make sense if you follow the path of where she got upset.

As you can tell, this poor woman is upset and tired of being emotional. She simply wants a peaceful couple of weeks, without disruptions in her routine that she had developed and enjoyed. How can she learn to trust herself again, and how does he know if this inner feeling is from the stress of all the changes in her life and environment, or if it is truly a gut instinct that shouldn’t be ignored …

I suppose, if I were to advise this person, I would tell her to make a decision and do your best to acclimate to whatever choice she’s made. Stick with it for at least half a year or longer, to make sure that you have given this all of your efforts and allowed the appropriate time to pass, so that you know for sure if this inner feeling is a result of the fear of a new experience or if it is truly a gut instinct meant to protect you from something to come. You won\’t make a healthy and soulful God-led choice when you\’re all flustered, and haven\’t even given the new experience your ALL.
