Dear Mamta, precious friend you are!
Thank you for your words of wisdom and kindness. I especially loved “He means you to surge ahead right now until you approach the next phase of life”. Ahhh, how energizing and revitalizing it was to read that!

I thank you for your faithful friendship and for encouraging me to press forward and yet not be fearful of this process. I do believe that I have an untapped energy inside me, given to us ALL by Him, that I am learning how to access and what to do with it! I am clouded by my own thinking, stress, worries, circumstances, etc. but I will work my way out of that in time.

Much love to you Mamta!

My dear Amy,

This is the purpose of life – Being lost or feeling lost in exactly the way you describe. It is not a personal crisis. It is an opportunity. Very very few are blessed with this feeling.

Sages have spent years and sometimes entire lifetimes looking for the answer to Who they are and What is their purpose, Why they’ve been sent here.

Tackling these metaphysical questions is not easy and it doesn’t give you quick answers, but it sets you on a path. Yes, it is said, it is an unsettling feeling to start with.

So many (and I mean billion) are born, live and die without ever coming anywhere close to this feeling. They are just so much into looks, eating, sleeping, going through the days chores and finish off after that. Wasted life.

But know at all times, The Almighty has sent you here and He/She is watching is child every single second. If He/She wished anything different for you, that would have happened – but He/She did not and you are here for a reason. That alone is bliss. He has surrounded you with material, tangible comforts, friends, family,- they are material with which he means you to surge ahead right now until you approach the next phase of life:)

Love always.
Mamta

Thank you so much Bonnie!
I have been on this road for so long, sometimes it feels terminal, but then there are breaks, rest stops, times of reprieve that get my by. I know it is a journey and I am learning along the way!
Much love,
Amy

Hi Amy,

I was thinking of writing a post about “only later” – about “hanging in there” when times are uncertain. Those words had floated away from me, until ONLY NOW! that you’ve reminded me of them. (I’m writing them down this time!) I went through an uncertain time (well, let’s call it a decade!) I wish I were kidding. But hang in there…

In the meantime, please know that your honesty and sincerity have touched me.

And, btw, (and I meant to mention this before!) my “phase” here in a Phoenix suburb is named…(I will DM you)

Love, Bonnie

From a fellow traveler: we’re never alone. Seek the help of people who know what it’s like. We’re never truly lost; we just lose our way for a while. Ask the angels to help you. to give you a sign. I’m asking them to be there for you right now.
Get an uplifting book. Draw. Write some more. Never give up! With all my love,
Maryse
