Proclamation of a Journey

I proclaim my truths.

They are not absolute truths (no such thing visible from human form, imho).

These are my current personal truths:

I chose to land in these challenges (the challenges of my particular life).

Much as I dream of escaping them, I know deeply I chose them for my soul's expansion.

My job is to embrace them joyously.

The more I embrace, the more happiness rises.

The more I resist, the more misery multiplies.

My soul is on a journey, currently in the physical form of moi.

This current "me" is a teeny, tiny part of the journey, much as it feels like everything!

Realizing this truth down into my bones, makes me laugh (happily).

Wow, what a journey.

Dear reader, what are your personal truths?

Inspired by your comment, Uilleam, I googled the Madleen seizure to inform myself*; more heartbreak. Good on you to write a song/prayer, a powerful means to communicate and speak to the heart. (*I must confess with an apology, I don't keep up with the news much. My stalwart husband keeps me somewhat informed. I mostly read spiritual stuff.) After reading about the Madleen interception, I skimmed this essay on the Middle East in my feeble attempt to understand the horrific sorrow. Later I will try to read the essay properly, if I can summon the intellectual and emotional stamina. I keep praying. I give gratitude for peace activists. May the suffering lessen. Oh humankind, where is your salvation? No answer there.

'Suffering isn't wrong. Suffering is real.'

And maybe that's just another phase for me. That I'll be going through.

Saw many a restaurant come-and-go. That's a real kind of suffering. And tasty also.

Tasty also.........

My personal truth, Hélène?

I'm currently devoting all my creative energies into writing a song / prayer [based on an old traditional song], in support of Greta Thunberg and her "Freedom Flottilla".💗

I intend to publish the completed piece in defiance of Netanyahu's thugs, who have just unlawfully seized the Madleen in international waters, unlawfully detained her crew, and stolen her cargo of badly-needed aid for Gaza.
