Cards. . .

I know this much to be true

Life is what you make it, it's up to you

Our stories are a part, a part of who we are

Players lay with me and I don't know where to start

I thought about it and I thought of this song

What will I see deep down in my soul

Embrace your own future while hard

So many questions but I'd gladly take part

It's been a minute since my last blog post. It isn't about being busy anymore, it's just more to do with life having so many constant demands and you are just trying to keep your head above water. Whilst we can take some relief in taking part in things in life, living life and spending time with others, how much of it is your design? How much of your life are you actually satisfied with? Is it reasonable to ask yourself if you are happy or whether you should have it all sorted by now? We can often try to avoid what we might see deep down in our souls, but we won't be able to see unless we take a peek. Will your incessant questions ever end?

Being open to receive means that you accept whatever comes, that you receive whatever arrives, whether good or bad. Are we discerning enough to pay attention and recognise when we need to lay our cards on the table? Do we know what deck to draw our cards from? What game are we playing anyway? So many people will try to unravel your mystery but they might be in for a bit of a rude awakening - particularly when they are so hellbent on knowing you and how they think you should play. What are you open to receive? Do you have what it takes to cater to what is coming your way?

To thine own self be true 

So I know now what to do
That's what comes to mind
Accepting all that he 
stayed on my mind

So I'll never forget what my worth is
Although my mind is working
But still these outside cravings keep judging
Good or bad intentions, don't let them fool you
This is the status of it welcoming through

Being true to yourself takes constant trial and error. If it doesn't feel that way, you truly are living an unexamined life - and the best person to do it is yourself - with a self-examination. We have no business giving advice to others when we need to fix our own backyards first. To know what your worth is, it takes experiences where your self-worth is called into question for you to make decisions, like which path to take at a fork in the road - what direction will you take and are you prepared for the journey? Reserve judgement for yourself and not others. Other people's judgements of you should pale in comparison to good intentions from those who seek your success. So start with yourself.

I hope that while you shuffle your cards, and figure out how you are going to lay them out on the table, keep reminding yourself about how far you have come. Keep reminding yourself about the rules of the game you are playing. Are you playing alone? Are you playing as part of a team? Until you can answer your own questions within yourself, and until you are open to receiving anything and everything while also expecting nothing, there will be moments of lucidity you have which will bring a smile to your face. So if you are a little rusty, time to get back into the game and keep your mind sharp. There are still many more rounds to play and it's your turn to lay your cards. . .
