Just like the moon

Today again the wise spoke. They spoke of some phases of life and how to see them in their truth.

Is it doubt or is it grief?
Is it pain prolonged or brief?
Is it a void perhaps you are in?
Do you doubt if you'd ever win?
Each thought that drops like ink black on your parchment, spreads like ink in water plain.
Spreads, it spreads and make you think on lonely nights. These thoughts drain.
These thoughts, they make you wonder. "What is going on?" You ask your self. "Why am I sad, why do I feel hopeless?
Is there an end to this tunnel seemingly endless?"
These questions are varied and yet the same. Yet all are justified.
But remember, what ever it is you feel, is a symptom waiting to be identified.
A symptom, or shall we say, an indicator. Identify it and you shall see;
what stage of life it is you are in, what all you could be.

To begin, let's talk of phases... I talk of only a few.
Preparation, perseverance, execution and then success, new.

While we prepare, many things we could feel. Often we feel PULLED DOWN, that dragging sensation of 'nothing is right, bit what IS wrong?' where it gets difficult to figure why sadness persists like some gloomy cloud following us. Often there is STAGNATION: time ticks by yet we feel stuck like a dead log sticking by a boulder as the rest of the world as we know it, speeds past like a river. It is then seems as if we in particular, are out of sync with our purpose. At times it is an indicator we are. But, the realisation that we are out of sync with our purpose is in fact a vital part of preparing.

Phase of preparation is a rather trying phase and one that affects all spheres of our life and existence: physical, emotional, mental etc etc etc.

What should we do in this phase?

Well, if you feel any of the symptoms that resonate with this phase (and I haven't actually listed all the symptoms, it is for you yourself to read and figure) then instead of feeling pulled down or worthless or lost, ACKNOWLEDGE! make peace with where you are right now in life. Once you have acknowledged, try figure what exactly is your symptom telling you. Is it telling you that you are in the wrong profession? Is it telling you that you are in a relationship that is draining you? Or is it telling you that you have a purpose that your people don't really understand and is causing loneliness? Are your choices being manipulated by certain determinants that you don't know how to handle?
The phase of preparation is like 'pain'. Just as our physical body tells us to focus on that broken bone by causing pain, so does our higher self manifest as emotional imbalances to encourage us to seek. It is that straight forward. But just as an infant knows only one reaction to pain: cry and cry more, similarly we react the way we do in response to our emotional trauma. It isn't wrong, it is simply underdeveloped.

Now I shall let you wonder where you stand. Read again and one more time. Perhaps you would find what you seek!

Else, contact me and we can discuss.

The other phases shall be discussed later. For now , I want those of you who do resonate with this information, to take a shower, drink some tea, lie down and wonder...

Love,
Iyah
