Back again

Posted on by philipdodson

Back here again, it’s been a while.

I had been blogging religiously, daily, for many years and then lost the habit. I tried a few times to rekindle the habit but with limited success. I thought I was ready to start again each time, but I wasn’t.

I’ve slowly been learning that it is totally OK. I am still worthy…really I am!

We are conditioned to believe that we always have to be doing something, achieving something and constantly busy. It is where we get our recognition from and our fragile ego craves it. If we are not achieving we believe we are a failure.

Our primary purpose is to simply ‘be’ and be in this moment now, to be conscious. Then we could choose to manifest other purposes and our soul will guide us to what they are. However, if all we do for our entire existence is to just be, then that is it.

So ‘back again’ in itself is irrelevant, I have never left. It is only my ego that needs to blog daily and achieve something. My soul just wants to share my gif with the world out of love.

The person we think we are is always vulnerable, the person we truly are is never vulnerable.

We can either think and suffer and be trapped within our thoughts or simply be and be at peace. We cannot do both.

Why is the obstacle the path?

Why is the obstacle the path?

Whatever we fear the most in life is what we should be doing. It is our guide to what the moment wants us to do.

We never fear anything that we do not care about.

We are all part of the one life, the universe and we are a multiple part of that universal consciousness. If the path was easy there would be no experience to be gained. The universe wants to experience itself in as many forms as possible, in fact, it is limitless.

Therefore, beyond our primary purpose to just be and to simply be a being, our secondary purpose is to take our unique gift and give it to the world. That will mean overcoming obstacles and the bigger the obstacle the more likely our purpose is beyond that and we are on the right path to fulfilling that purpose.

Of course, as all forms are temporary, our secondary purpose will change constantly and new obstacles will block the path. Our primary purpose to just be is permanent like this now moment.

So whatever obstacle you are hiding from, fearing, avoiding, running away from…turn round and tackle it. It is a courageous person who chooses to challenge their biggest obstacles and it will, like all things, take one step at a time.

Without obstacles in our path there is no purpose.

We have to take that first step now.
