Searching for the Rainbow
- Details
- Written by Millie America Parmer
Life will present the utmost challenging lessons at a time when they feel the most intense. In that intensity the wholeness of essence and body integrate to conjure up the understanding.
This can arrive through illness, loss, difficult decisions and challenges, matters of the heart, and so on. There is no such thing as degrees of classifications. There is no way to measure these lessons against another. These are moments you step back and wonder, “Why? Why is this happening right now? I thought I was advancing. I thought I had learned this particular subject and lesson in the past.” And this is exactly the moment that God shows grace, love, and the ability to strengthen the very core of you. This is the moment you feel life running through your veins and pumping blood into your heart. It is then that just breathing becomes an adventure.
Decisions are the steppingstones to the journey in a lifetime. Do I go this way or that way? Do I go straight and make my own path where I don’t see one? I am learning every day that the only way to travel is through faith. There is a higher purpose to the soul’s calling. The higher you advance on the spiritual journey the more difficult and challenging the lessons seem to become. No one said that walking on faith is easy. Walking on ego is a cinch, but this walk of not knowing, surrendering, and trusting through Divinity is never without heavy struggles.
I believe in justice. I believe in good. My ex-husband used to complain to me all the time, “You believe in rainbows, fairy tales, unicorns, and happy endings. Life isn’t like that. It’s f*cking brutal and unfair. Stop living in La-La Land.” I disagree wholeheartedly! I believe we are brought to the edges of decisions and struggles to find that love conquers everything. It isn’t how fast you get to the top but how you handle getting there. I believe everything has a reason, even when we don’t see it. Nothing happens without leaving a footprint of knowledge. We are archaeologists searching for what the past has taught us in order to move into the future. We have a choice to look for the rainbows and butterflies or the shitstorm. We were taught to believe that if there is no struggle, there is little progress. So, when things happen that rattle the very core of my existence, I know there is HUGE blessing ahead. I may not be able to see the complete rainbow, but I see the light moving through the clouds.
And perhaps we aren’t meant to struggle. I often think it is an old program instilled in our little heads from early on. What if we were raised to believe anything and everything is possible? That life isn’t hard? That we can accomplish anything without obstacles? It’s all a reframing of beliefs and letting go of old paradigms.
I wish for you the chance to look at your challenges and face them with faith, beauty and love. Ask the questions that the soul yearns for you to acknowledge and learn. It is there that the answer light the path to the journey. Keep searching for the silver linings and rainbows…always. Ahhhh, what a beautiful journey we can choose to take!
I love you,
Millie
