The other day I had an epiphany, I finally figured out what my role is in the Ascension Wave. Amazingly, it happened just after I had committed the cardinal of spirituality, comparing myself with others. I thought about three spiritual friends in particular and became quite depressed; I somehow fell short to all of them. One of my friends is a prime example of someone who is living in the Now. Like a butterfly, she goes from ‘here’ to ‘there’, perfectly expressing the moment while I still sit there reflecting on what she just said. I realized that I don’t even want to be like her. Sure, I also enjoy the thrill of the moment, enjoying the satori moment when our thoughts stand still, but to me memories of special events mean something. I enjoy it when the Holy Ghost restores memories for me. I live for my life story whereas my more advanced friends tell me that there is none. At least I have become smarter about it and no longer hold any preconceived notions how this story book should read. Still, even if a higher Force writes it for me, I still want to read it. If living in the Now without future and past is the spiritually superior then so be it.
The second friend has a capacity to love that seems unmatched, certainly by me. Watch the love and devotion pouring out of his writings or see him interacting with other folks and you can watch in amazement of how big the human heart really is. I also have a big heart but as an introvert I spend it more on the relationships I have developed over the years than pouring my heart out to whoever comes my way. The third friend who stands out to me has incredible intellectual boldness. It is inspiring to read his insights. He literally questions everything our mind comes up with. I appreciate my powerful mind way too much to go down this road. Instead of questioning its usefulness, I rather use my mind to contemplate common spiritual wisdoms and finding idiosyncratic pathways for my friends. My spiritual journey might not be as cool as that of some others but I figure that I can help many on their Awakening journeys as author, spiritual coach and connector.
It suddenly struck me that I have the pragmatism and insight to help other folks Awakening to their path. I have the kind heart to discover love when I meet her, and the loyalty and determination to stick it out with anyone who really want to break free from being stuck in an ego-determined word. As it turns out, I am really good at connecting the pieces and remembering what people said, when, and in what situation. All of these attributes are really helpful in guiding people along their spiritual journey and being a connector across a spiritual network. Never mind the strive for ‘enlightenment’, I have a role to play as a light-worker and I am looking forward to embarking on it. Truth of the matter is, everyone is a perfect piece in God’s divine mosaic, we just have to discover what makes us unique and embrace our role whole-heartedly. What is your job is in this Ascension Wave?
