Need A Hand

Loss is never easy until we see it for the illusion that it is.

That is not meant to diminish, devalue, or otherwise dismiss what you have gone through and experienced. Rather, it is to offer a different lens to see things through so that it might reinvigorate and reinspire you, and your hopes, dreams, and wishes.

Presently, the human experience is viewed as a physical experience and thus any physical loss is both painful, emotional, and can greatly impact our lives. That said, it is equally important to remember that everything is energy, including us humans, and energy can never be extinguished, only transmuted.

Your loved ones are as alive today as they were before. They simply exist in another form and sphere of energy.  These are immutable truths. Once you are open to connecting with them again, albeit in a new way, you will see that their presence in your life continues. While the rules of engagement and how they present themselves in your life change, their ongoing presence and soul contract with you does not.

Think of them. Speak with them. Listen to them. Look for the signs, symbols, and synchronicities that affirm them. Take them with you wherever you go and be open and consciously aware as to how they respond and affirm their presence. From a scent to a memory, to a billboard sign, to a number, or a passing line in a movie, TV show or commercial, to a comment from a family member, friend, or stranger to nature herself, they do and will respond, making their presence and ongoing love known to you.

The loss of a relationship can also be overwhelming until we see that hidden in the husk of our purported loss is the fruit of our salvation, our renewal. We are rarely ever unaware of the ongoing problems in a relationship. How we got there, why we entered it in the first place, what we thought we could change in ourselves or the other person, or otherwise overcome or ignore altogether. And yet therein lies both the illusion and the gift buried in the breakup, the ending, the loss. The inevitable responsibility of facing ourselves. Facing our choices, truths, and opportunities for healing change and transcendence.

When we are open and honest with ourselves, and each other, we acknowledge what we inherently already know or knew. We open ourselves to the possibilities that lie beyond the end of a relationship or the loss of a loved one. We come to see through the illusion of loss and death and find instead what is and always was present and on offer; a rich and beautiful experience shared between souls and the divine that continues beyond this realm of existence.

Your hopes, dreams, and wishes are as alive and ever possible as you make them. Cherish them, breathe new life into them, or release them and make room for new ones. Regardless, be steadfast in manifesting them. Hold the reins loosely enough to allow the Universe to bring them to you in divine time and order.

All in life can and will be fine as long as you choose to see it that way.  As Mike Dooley of The Universe Talks says, Thoughts are Things…Choose the Good Ones! ®
