For so many years I felt as though I was in some type of prison or a maze with no exits.
I would try to find my opening into the real world where there was happiness, joy, and serenity yet I continued to wander through this life bumping into people, places, things, situations, institutions, and principalities which would ultimately cause me discomfort, unhappiness, misfortune and the like.
Eventually I created so much chaos within me that I finally snapped and at that moment I cried out for help, and I was allowed to feel a release.
I was given a moment of clarity. A chance to see how I was the one holding the keys to my own freedom.
The key was willingness to change, to see life as it was not how I thought it should be.
When I allowed myself a new conception of God, I could finally feel the Divine Love I had heard about and craved.
It was in my willingness to accept a deeper understanding that I allowed a new happiness and a new freedom.
I lost all resentments and hatred and lived in communion with all creation.
Today my intention is to continue to live in acceptance of all beings as they participate in my life. I am fortunate to remember this is about progress not perfection. For I continue to experience some of my old reactions to life and I am reminded of my desire to live in happiness, joy, and serenity.
Daily prayer, meditation, appreciation, affirmation, and willingness allows me the opportunity to continue my journey through this Divine design.
May each of you allow yourself the gift of release from your own prison.
There is much Love for you.
