I have had a few happenings happen in my life in recent times.
.
Things that have caused me to question myself, question what I consider to be perfect, question what I consider to be good.
.
And as I talked it over with the Divine.
.
I heard these words.
.
“Let go of what you thought perfection would look like, and allow perfection to unfold”
.
Wow!
.
At least that was my reaction to those words.
.
Because yes, I did have very solid ideas of what I considered to be perfection and every time, something looked even a little different from that, I would go into these horrid states of self-judgement, self-blaming, wondering what I had done wrong, wondering if I deserved to be punished in some way.
.
And it could steal my joy for a good long while.
.
Now in the past, I would have allowed it to take me over and I would mostly avoid the Divine because I felt sure that all my feelings of guilt and shame were coming from Him as a form of punishment because I was a worm of the earth.
.
Thankfully, I have come a long way from there, though there is still some way to go.
.
Now, I talk it over with Him, listen for His responses and there is always something there to shift my thinking, shift my perceptions, allow me greater freedom.
.
In this case, I see how my rigid ideas of what perfection should look like in my life, means that when anything even slightly seems off, then I am liable to reject it, wonder how I have failed, stress myself out with what others might think of me because obviously for this to happen to me, then I must be evil in some way and so on.
.
But maybe, just maybe, there is nothing wrong at all.
.
Maybe, just maybe, perfection is in the process of unfolding and it is different and probably better than anything I could have ever imagined.
.
Maybe, just maybe, my need to hold on so tightly to how everything MUST look at all times, is keeping me from freedom and love.
.
The truth is, with hindsight, that my life is more glorious than I could ever have pictured it to be and if I had not let go of a lot of my old ideas of how perfection had to look, I would still be trapped in a life well below what was possible for me.
.
And so, as I go from glory to glory, I must let go to step into a whole new level.
.
Yes, I hold loosely a grand vision of all that I desire and I do what I know to do each day to bring it about.
.
But I realise again that it is the feelings around this grand vision that I am seeking to experience.
.
Feelings of peace, love, enthusiasm, fulfilment, joy, expansion, FREEDOM, personal power, wholeness, creativity, self-expression.
.
And the way those feelings manifest may be very different from what I had pictured.
.
And so, I learn again to trust that perfection is unfolding and it is always so much better than my limited ability to see/visualise/picture could ever have imagined.
.
Everything really is always working out for my good.
.
ALWAYS.
.
I choose to allow perfection unfold.
