Miracles happen all the time. For some reason we think they should come with fireworks. That happens, but not often. It is when the fireworks explode, a miracle is declared. But aren’t miracles more miraculous than that? Miracles, they are not ordinary but they are regular. If miracles seem too far away, then possibly this may help. “Surrender to the grief, despair, fear, loneliness, or whatever form the suffering takes. Witness it without labeling it mentally.

As it goes, the Universe is set up in such a way that when we need to keep our hearts open the most, it is during the most absolute difficult times to do so.

When we are in a place of resistance that is fear-based, it will stick around because it’s merely asking to be looked at and explored. It will continue to weigh you down, make you feel uncomfortable, etc. until you do.

What if we all took the time to really get to know ourselves like we were meeting a new friend or lover, and give ourselves that same undivided attention?
Now, a key of personal power is not often needed unless control over something else is intended. While the goal for the Spiritual Alchemist is to quiet (and learn from) the Ego Mind, expand from our traumas and trials, and be open to more abundance and joy in our lives.

And this process of growth doesn’t need to be controlled but rather will flourish if left to its devices.
As I thought about the 2021 series, Little Fires Everywhere; I came back to my “knowing” of what most of us really want. Freedom, the ability to choose our path and then the peace and contentment that accompany that choice. When we look at what we really want, we often see something that is just outside our reach, it is like a vision of sorts. It is in our mind and sometimes our heart. We feel it and know there is something more.
