Here are some thoughts, meditations and ideas about that!<\/p>\n<p>First of all recognize that life has a plan for our growth and ascension that requires some breaking down of the old structures of life.\u00a0 That breaking down is what we may be finding worrisome right now; rather than moving forward, we seem to be going backward.\u00a0 Don&#8217;t be dismayed, this is a necessary phase.\u00a0 But while we find many of our best intentions being apparently thwarted, rather than focusing on that, we can focus on what we can do that\u00a0supports the new world\u00a0in our lives.\u00a0 Sometimes this means\u00a0increasing our\u00a0integrity in the little things, catching up on our inner spiritual or emotional\u00a0work, our relationships, our home life.\u00a0 Most importantly it can mean aligning our personal will and goals with our Inner Wisdom, Higher Self and Higher Power.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Definitions:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Inner Wisdom:<\/strong> A focus of my eternal facet of God (or whatever name you use for the Oneness of Life)\u00a0within my body and soul, easiest to find deep within my heart, but everywhere within me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Higher Self:<\/strong>\u00a0My true and eternal\u00a0spiritual BEING &#8211; my unique facet of God that is\u00a0One with the Creator and all of life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Higher Power:<\/strong> The One, God, The Source, whatever you like to call this place from which all life is born and of which we are always a part.\u00a0\u00a0From this place\u00a0higher wisdom\u00a0embraces\u00a0the beginning and end of creation and everything in between.\u00a0 This is the\u00a0wholeness of life.<\/p>\n<p>These are\u00a0three are elements of unity for us to align ourselves with.\u00a0 In doing so, we are helping to build the new world.\u00a0 When we focus on the building, we are less disturbed by the breaking down.\u00a0 I suggest focusing on how you can build these connections and how you can bring them into each moment of your life.\u00a0 I wrote a song about this 35 years ago!\u00a0 I still sing it sometimes.\u00a0 The words go like this:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>There&#8217;s a right way to live in each moment, there is one thing to do and to say, and it&#8217;s different than each moment gone before.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>And beyond the moment at hand we don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s in store.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>The best laid plans of mice and men, often go astray &#8212; the perfect plan of life is revealed every single day.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Life will have its way; to its rhythms all things sway &#8212; why don&#8217;t we?<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>People sweat and toil because life&#8217;s rhythms are ignored in their plans.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Pay attention in the quiet times &#8212; listen &#8212; to your thoughts pour forth undemandingly.\u00a0 Let the present show what forms you can reveal perfectly.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Feel the pulse of life within your world, see the power of life transform your world.\u00a0 Life will have its way&#8230;life&#8217;s way!<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Each of us, through our Inner Wisdom and Higher Self have a direct line to the Higher Power.\u00a0 When we relax our fears and agendas, we can find a rhythm of unity that moves us in the perfect expression of our own focus of life.\u00a0 Whether in little things or big things we can strengthen this unity so that everything we are becomes a service of love; and in this there\u00a0can be inner peace and\u00a0joy.\u00a0 Bringing the Higher Power into the here and now is the goal of ascension.\u00a0 Sometimes when life doesn&#8217;t give us what we want or what we believe is right, the challenge of that builds great inner strength and wisdom in ways that could not happen otherwise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">To keep hope alive and strong within us we can focus on increasing our inner unity.\u00a0 How we do that is a personal journey.\u00a0 Perhaps my little song can help\u00a0you\u00a0find\u00a0your way step by step.\u00a0 From that inner unity you will know when and how to act in the world, and you will do it with power and finesse because the Higher Power will be acting through you with grace and ease.\u00a0 Remember, life&#8217;s goals are always going to win out!\u00a0 We\u00a0are living\u00a0a mysterious journey of unfolding life.\u00a0 Live it with hope, inner unity and strength.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Pet\u00a0healings get $10 off with this\u00a0post in\u00a0April, and Family Healings get\u00a0$10 in May.\u00a0 All I need is one adult on the phone and unconditionally loving\u00a0magic happens for your pets or family and family relationships!\u00a0 If either of these are on rhythm for you, drop me an email through my website!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Have a blessed week of hope, peace and joy my friends!\u00a0 Love Always, Eve<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Thanks for liking or sharing this post or your comments!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When our goals feel obstructed, or when\u00a0what we built that is good feels beaten down, how do we handle that and keep our hope alive and strong?
