We all have the days where we sit and maybe just cry a river of tears or
you feel like the vultures at your back wont ever leave you to be. All the memories stir inside and you come to
the bitter sweet moments that is just endless.
The tears flow with a million questions. ‘Why”…… seems to be the most
popular of them. Why do the daggers
that others carry cut so deep that you feel you are in the wreckage of your own
soul?
Why do others single you out based on their own fears and perceptions and
create havoc and illusions for others so that each step you take you feel like
you are taking ten steps back. What is
their mission? Why do others speak ill about you even though they have no clue
of who you are or what you are about?
Why are they in your life ? Why do they choose to create mischief?
Who are these vultures and what do the daggers mean? The vultures are lights on our path … the
daggers? … (smile) …. they are the lessons.
We trust others with everything we have inside sometimes but inside
their intentions are not the same for us.
What do we do ?? How can we know?
We will always find the truth in things when we silence our mind. That whisper you hear, that message you get
when you just “listen”. Its always there
… that little voice. The Angels walk
with us always .. they are never far behind.
When the vultures bring you to your knees – look up … what do you
see? Close your eyes and listen to the
sky. Find the strength in the sweet
sound of the Divine …… he whispers “I am with you”. Who can these vultures hurt? Us?
Yes they can – but only when we allow them to. These vultures are the catalyst that brings
us to our core. These vultures are the
ones chosen to help us …. See it that way or don’t ….. it is what it is.
So when next you cry that river of tears and the daggers in your back seem
to break you to the core remember that on our path we will find the ones that
will stir us ..… it may not seem that way but when you look closer you will
realise that in each of these adversities it helped you in a way far greater
than what you expected. Don’t spend your
life questioning, just believe in the
limitless lessons we are here to learn. In your silent wars the victory is there when
you conquer your inner self.
When wounds are fresh, they are still hurtful. It is only through the healing that the lesson comes to light. Vultures have their time and place and they also disappear from view when they realize there is still life in the carcass.

ReplyDeleteWelcome we can all take a lesson from this -- :)
DeleteIt's all part of a projection you know, all the vultures, the angels, saints and sinners in our lives are drawn to us because something inside us opens the door for them. With the negatives, it's usually something we've tried to bury or deny, it's only strength, like the tar baby in the Uncle Remus tales, comes from us. When we stop fearing those things and trying to deny them their power to influence us at all vanishes.
ReplyDeleteLisa I agree ... When we allow it ... it happens. Easier said than done sometimes but in the end we have to find that power within ... Thanks my friend
ReplyDeleteThis resonates deeply, full of truth, yet another ancient knowing that we must awaken to and be reminded of. Life isn't about happiness, it is about being awake. Vultures can be our roosters crowing at sunrise!
