Checkmate.
We can pretend all we want, but if we ever want to get somewhere, we will have to stop doing so. As creators, and to a certain extent, we have lost contact with a very crucial string within that connects us to the cycle of transcendence: the ability to improve, become better, more skilled, more intelligent, more healthy. Today's nawal is a great teacher on how to reconnect with this string. This string is the path that moves us forward through our inner evolution, the evolution of the soul and of consciousness. As living bodily creatures, we naturally get attached to whatever corner of confort and stability we find. Yet everything that happens on the outside is subject to the meaning we give it inwards. Our happiness and desires, our love stories and spiritual connections, rely not on what is happening outside, but in how the story is being narrated inside. Knowing this is that this civilization has massively produced and invested itself in creating artifacts and means with which to keeps us trapped from the outside. Pleasures, gadgets, drugs, comforts and distractions. Some are trapped by consuming them, others by producing them, but everyone is trapped.
Those who are consuming them may seem like they have the advantage, but inside knowing that what you have is possible because others are being exploited and killed, brings no real happiness and peace to the consciousness. This is where we want to stop pretending. As we are able to understand this we connect with the purpose of evolving forward, doing something about it, living not for pleasure, but for love. As we seek to give love to others, the cosmos responds with love to you. And this love is shown by putting a path for you to grow. Growing means leaving the old structures behind, the old you behind. Connecting with this thread means facing the changes that may come and the great price to pay is detachment. To the measure of how able you are to let go and allow changes in your life, will be how many blessings and growth may come for you. To the measure of how willing you can be to see how you are mistaken, unprecise and wrong, will come the blessing of growing to be wise, knowing and skilled. Living out today's nawal means finding yourself in a spot where spirit has you in checkmate. If this doesn't happen, take the time to pause everything you're doing and ask yourself if this is taking you somewhere. Allow today's nawal to help you see everything that you are completely doing wrong, and allow yourself to be wrong lovingly. It's the only way to begin being right.
