I believe on a soul level we come into life with a game plan, a blueprint so to speak, of the potential earthly experiences that we need to heal our deepest psychic wounds and expand our consciousness. And, while the greater aspect of who we are remains a mystery, I believe the veils between our human selves and our spiritual selves are lifting as more and more people are drawn to their spiritual paths.
I like the analogy of seeing this lifetime as a play upon a stage, the leading roles to be played by actors we call family, friends, and co-workers. They hurt us and push our buttons. At first we want to blame them. But when we accuse another, pointing at them in anger, we see the fingers pointing back at us. Have you ever noticed this? In time we will learn that to heal our discordant feelings we need to look within and use the opportunities these experiences offer.
