In reality, your world is set up so that nothing happens to
you, but everything happens for you - for your awakening, for your growth, for
your inspiration, for your exploration - even if you forget that, or sometimes
cannot see it, or sometimes fall into distraction and despair.
When there is no fixed destination, you cannot ever lose
your destination, so you cannot ever lose your path, so nothing that happens in
your life can take you off your path. Your path IS what happens, and what
happens IS your path. There is no other.
Everything is a gift on this unbreakable path that you call
your life - the laughter, the tears, the times of great sorrow, the experiences
of profound loss, the pain, the confusion, the times you believe you'll never
make it, even the overwhelming heartbreak of love - even if you forget that
sometimes, or cannot see that sometimes, or lose faith absolutely in the entire
show sometimes.
But even the loss of faith in the show is part of the show,
and even the scene where 'something goes wrong' is not indicative of the show
going wrong, and so you are always exactly where you need to be, believe it or
not, even if you are not.
Life can be trusted absolutely, even when trust seems a
million light-years away, and life cannot go wrong, for all is life, and life
is all. Understand this, know it in your heart, and spirituality is profoundly
simple, as simple as breathing, as natural as gazing up at the stars at night
and falling into silent wonder. The universe is more beautiful than you could
ever imagine.
