Inner Guidance Signals Change

When Inner Guidance Signals, Change Is Needed On Your Path...

Somewhere between memories and recognition is a path. This path usually has many twists and turns, and every time you think you have figured out where it is leading you, it throws you for a loop by uncovering new landscapes, new people to meet, and new potentials to explore.

We all have our own, very personal, memories. And which part of those we recognize in our day to day lives is different for each of us. We may have memories of the times when we grew up, yet also memories of ancient, long forgotten times when we were walking a similar path perhaps. Living similar values, even when our lives then were vastly different than our current experience ~ there may be that memory that says: “I have done this before”.

These moments, where we have this sense of “having done this before”, often point to talents or abilities we have yet to use in our lives. Things that we are strangely familiar with, even though we haven’t had an interest in exploring them before.

When we start recognizing those memories, suddenly we may become aware of any number of questions may float to the surface of our consciousness: “Do I want to explore these memories at all? And if so, do I want to incorporate whatever I find in my day-to-day life, as I am living it today? Do I want to reinstate the things I may have learned long ago in precisely the same manner as I sensed in that memory? Or will I try and bring all that I have learned before, forward into this point in time? Finding new ways to explore this new-found interest.”

There are no wrong answers. 

We all choose our own personal paths. As we bring our dreams into reality, we all design our own unique paths in such a way that it will  lead us to a point of fulfillment.

As we choose the direction we want to take in life, making decisions that we feel are the best in any particular situation we encounter, we create a life for ourselves that will give us what we wish to gain from it. In other words, we will make decisions based on our overall priorities. Based on what is most important to us, at that moment.

Yet as life goes on, our priorities change.

Where we may have thought at one point in time, that a certain lifestyle was absolutely necessary in order to live a successful life, there might be a time when we find that success to us is not measured in the way we thought it was.

It is at those moments in life that the memories of long forgotten times can come to us, unbidden. Perhaps in dreams, or in meditations. Or just a thought coming to mind, out of nowhere.

When they do, they are always signaling that it is time to change direction. Time to re-evaluate our priorities. To have a close and honest look at what is truly important to us.

And while we may find ourselves making a 180 degree turn, more likely we will adapt our lives to a point where we find time to explore new talents and abilities. Independent of whether our particular interest coincides with the memories we received.

Bit by bit we may find that between those memories and the recognition of what they have to tell us is a path that we, up to that point, never knew existed. A path that we may find is vastly more rewarding than we ever thought it could be.

Step by step this path can bring us ever closer to our authentic selves, bringing happiness and fulfillment into our lives. And above all, a sense of belonging.
