I Have the Keys, Now Where is the Door?


I have always believed that we are divinely led to our heart’s desires if we want it badly enough, and have the necessary faith to go forth to find the path that leads us to our ultimate, highest good. I believe, though, too, that it’s easy to be diverted, sidetracked, to get lost and to just simply FORGET that we have the power to make things happen…I am standing in the hallway, I have the keys, now I have to set about trying the different doors to find out which one will be opened by the keys I am holding…

I get frustrated on this path at times, since I am, afterall, human….but I come back around and re-focus…This is where I am right now. I KNOW where I want to go in this life (most of the time) on this journey. I know what lights my soul on passionate fire and what makes me wide-eyed and giddy with anticipation to sink my heart, soul and bones into a project or job with open-hearted joy….

At times, I feel frustrated also that I am seemingly, constantly on some pursuit of some dream job (to do with photography, graphic arts, creativity, to allow me to work from home, etc.) and someone told me that I am unable to just “settle” down into any kind of “normal” routine, because if it’s not what I really want, I almost immediately dismiss it as nothing I will really put my entire being into. I have to say that person making that observation was…partly correct in his observation…I DO give up on things that aren’t “really” what I want, and maybe only pursue it half-heartedly, at times begrudgingly…So, by addressing what I DO want, and focusing on the good of what I DO have, I can further carry myself down this hallway, trying the other doors….
