It’s because you might just be out of alignment. And, not with anything but your true Self.
The Universe is your road, your path. It’s here to pave the way for you and only you; it posts signs and speed bumps, directions and detours. It wants nothing more than for you to stay your course. It knows you may not always be on the straight and narrow and that it may be a bit difficult to exactly identify where or how that happened. But, like the wheels of your car, when they’re out of alignment, when it feels a little extra difficult to control, when it feels like the ride just isn’t as smooth as it can be, the Universe, too, will let you know.
It may be that something just isn’t as fun as it once was? Or, maybe a relationship is no longer as dear to your Heart as it used to be? Could be that your job is no longer fulfilling or just makes you outright nauseous in the morning? These are the road markers that are trying to guide you to where you need to go. And, you know, when the pavement doesn’t seem to have a single bump or pothole and the horizon in front of you is warm and welcoming, this too, is the Universe showing you the way.
You’re gonna get to where you need to go. You don’t ever need to worry about that. If you miss an exit, there’s going to be another one. And, another one after that. The road might start to get rougher, you may start to get low on fuel and you may have to backtrack or take a longer route, but you’ll get there. You’ll get on that exit. Being in alignment with your Self and the Universe will only help you better know when it’s time to change direction. And, you’ll keep getting those opportunities, not to exit, but more aptly, to change direction onto the next great journey in your life.
Too often we hear that we should, “tough it out” or “stay the course”. But, the path you should be on is the one that challenges you, not the one that makes you struggle and suffer. If it feels like you’ve been going uphill for awhile, but that you can still make it (you can, definitely, make it!), that’s your challenge. Stay that course. But, when it feels like you’ve been going uphill for forever, you can barely see anything because of the torrential downpour and all the ruts in the road are shaking you apart, that’s when you know that path isn’t yours.
There’s nothing wrong with walking away from something, or quitting, not knowing what to do, saying “no”, saying “yes”, or just trying and trying. This is how we learn to follow what is guiding us. This is how we find our alignment and, ultimately, our self Love.
The only way we lose ourselves; the only way we get lost, is when we choose not to see. And, it’s not always easy. Often, it’s exactly the opposite of easy. But, the signs are there, the markers are there, the Universe will always be showing you the way.
You’re gonna get to where you need to go.
Be Love.
