Chapter 61 of From Pebbles To Pathways

Upon my return from Washington, I did a meditation that had a strong effect on me. It had to do with seeing the darkness (that I translated to fear and pain) that still resided in my body and emotions. It was very evident to me during my session with Chuck that I still held onto these feelings. Given that there was so much to be cleared, I thought, how much more is there that I am still not aware of?  Even if I have a certain amount of dedication and insight, how can I help others if I still have places in me to heal? In the meditation I saw myself trying to break away from the lurking darkness, but no matter how hard and how many times I tried to break free from it, it was always there. I also saw how the darkness shrouds this entire planet. I saw interwoven threads of gold and lightness melting away the darkness, but the darkness was immense; it was overwhelming.

I decided to have a session with Ron Scolastico and The Guides. I received an answer for my question that was very simple, yet it knocked my socks off. They knew of my strong belief that love is what ultimately helps, guides, and heals us. Given this, The Guides simply said, “You don’t have to be perfect to love.” As I heard these words, I stopped cold. I felt forgiveness flow through me for my imperfections, and gratitude for my love, insight, and good intentions. They also reminded me that everyone with a body has issues to resolve, and physical and/or emotional healing to do.

As far as the darkness in the world, the answer is always the same. Yes, it is prevalent, and yes, it is destructive, but it is not more powerful than goodness, truth, and love. I have experienced this personally and have seen it in my meditations many times. As more and more people wake up, and as each of us does our best and as we do our best to help others, and as we continue to hold a vision for a peaceful and loving world, we have a good chance of turning things around.

Pebbles

You do not have to be perfect to love. ’Nuf said.

Guidance and support systems are other pebbles for this chapter. Even those with the strongest faith and conviction need support at times. The Guides, as well as other forms of divination, have provided two things for me. First, they reminded me of the power of my essence when I forgot. And second, they gave me perspective and context. Having access to these was, and continues to be, invaluable.

This blog, and all my writings, are explorations into the wondrous, deep, and ever-evolving process of living, loving and growing. My intention with Pebbles for Thought, is to empower and uplift, one post at a time.
