Crossroads of Failure and Success May Not Exist
When coming to a crossroad, by its very nature, it has two ways. One cannot walk both but have to choose. If the choice does not fulfill our immediate needs, there is sensations of let down and feeling of discouragement.
What if you choose to think of “the wrong turn” as experience for growth instead of failure? What would happen if you choose to believe that every road you take is the right road and will lead somewhere you will gain. May not be riches or fame, but instead, insight and spiritual growth.
Here is my prayer for you today:
May the roads you take, follow through with joy.
May what you thought a dirt road increase your heart with the wonder of life.
May the times you think you took the wrong turn, turn out to be the best.
May your mishaps become your delight
May your misstep allow you to fall into good and comforting arms.
May you always feel.
Mushrooms Need the Dark And the Bull
They say that mushrooms are kept in the dark and are fed bull. And that may be true but when you are in the dark sometimes you grow better.
We are not all the same. Some need sunshine and some moonlight. Some need constant touch while others prefer their space. Some are attention hogs while others strive for obscurity.
In any case, we flourish differently, under the worst and the best of circumstances. Some need the darkness without the sun’s burn, pushing through the earth and burst in color. We grow strong from adversity and soft hearted from loving.
Just because a mushroom is in the dark does not mean it does not have its own beauty. After all Knowledge puffs but mercy and charity overcome all evil.
So, if you need to be a mushroom, so be it. If you need to be a sunflower, so be it. Never become anything other than what you are. You are precious.
