Finding Peace and Strength Through Life's Calm Waters and Turbulent Tides
The Waves, the Rising Tides, and Sometimes the Tidal Waves of Life
Yes, in life, there will be times when the sea of life is calm and inviting, and we are able to live our life's journey in a state of peace and tranquility.
It is important, when we are in this space, to be engulfed in gratitude and appreciation for being able to indulge in and receive the wealth of beauty, peace, and contentment that riding these waves brings into our spirits. It is about living in the moment, allowing those waves to gracefully move us through the dance of our lives.
We get a chance to be lighthearted and gleeful. We get a chance to throw caution to the wind because we are one with the "Spirit," riding this wave in rhythm with our natural, authentic selves.
It is bliss, to say the least.
We don't even have to share our wave because it belongs to us, and each person has their own waves at different times in their lives. Oh, the view from the top of this wave is magnificent! We can see different perspectives of the things that are good in our lives, which stirs our emotions and brings us to a place of gratitude, appreciation, and contentment.
Oh, what a relief it is!
It is a time to energize our physicality, emotions, and cognition. We will need to have this fortitude in reserve for when the tides begin to rise and, perhaps, a "tidal wave" hits our life's journey unexpectedly.
When the Tides Begin to Rise
What do we do when we see or feel the tides beginning to rise?
Stand by. Buckle up. Prepare to be confronted by the disruption of the peace you are carrying, and know that you have what you need stored in your reserves. Remember that you have the inner strength and spirit to face the challenge, rise above the tide, and, if necessary, overcome the "tidal wave."
You have to trust your inner, intuitive self. You have to know that you are capable of handling the tides and tidal waves of obstacles and distractions.
You have to know that "this too shall pass."
You have to be intentional in your desire to live your best life, in spite of what may come your way on your journey through life.
You are more than flesh!
You are more than a temporary upheaval that might push you one step back from what you know you deserve in life.
Let these things pass through you, but never let them take root in your soul!
It's like that old gospel hymn, "Peace Be Still," by Mary Ann Baker.
"The winds and the waves shall obey thy will.
Peace, be still, peace, be still.
The elements sweetly rest;
Earth's sun in the calm lake is mirrored,
And heaven's within my breast."
"And with joy I shall make the blest harbor,
And rest on the blissful shore.
Peace, be still! Peace, be still! Peace, be still!"
(My paraphrased version, because I only take from everything what resonates with my Spirit.)
So, breathe deeply.
Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul's expression.
May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting to humanity.
