Throughout our lives we travel many journeys bereft of solace that these journeys end is where we set out to arrive at in the first place. There can be no doubt that some of these journeys in themselves to some degree, will be within our own control although many will not, as external forces steer us on a path that we struggle to stay off due to the emotional, psychological and sometimes physical cost to our individuality and all that this entails.
Many of us will come to a place on our journeys when we are standing on the edge of the light with nothing but darkness before us. We know we have to move forwards into the darkness and to do this we need to step off into it at some point in time. Stepping into the unknown for many of us can be a frightening experience but we only allow ourselves to do so when we feel we have an inner Faith.
This Faith is based on us knowing that when we step into the darkness one of three things may happen
We fall into oblivion that is the darkness, or there will be something solid to stand on and our journey continues, or we are suddenly gifted with the knowledge and ability to fly.
Either way, it is having Faith in the outcome that you wish to experience that makes us take that first step forward into the darkness before us ignoring learnt prejudices and biases towards that which we fear the most – our own ability to make such decisions and humanity to follow the flow of our ‘heart’ and desires.
Getting to the summit of any mountain is just such a journey that we may well be confronted with this darkness. Confront it now and leave all self doubt at home.
Believe in your own ability to fly!
