My experience of Destiny is both playing with the given cards from the universe and with the ones I have asked. “Walking “ your destiny is how you handle what has been given to you whether unexpectedly or by your invitation. Your free will, your decisions in both cases will make the journey enjoyable or painful depending whether you operate from your authentic self or not and whether you resist or allow what is. As I look back, destiny has been unfolding as a direct consequence of my responses to what happens. Every thought and action in the present moment impacts and designs destiny.
Walking your destiny is driving your authentic energy into your future in faith and with a smile on your face. Staying in the driver’s seat of your life and allowing your Soul to guide your destiny will unfold your spiritual journey. You are in flow even though you encounter challenges along the way which in fact strengthen you.
Allow the universe to guide you, ask the universe to show you, accept its surprising ways of bringing the experience to you. As long as you embrace every situation you will develop qualities you need to fulfil your destiny. Every experience is a blessing in disguise, a tailor made lesson. Resistance and lack of awareness to what is keeps you locked into what is called “Fate”. Aligning with your destiny is a decision from your authentic energy and inviting your Soul to co-create with Source.
The way you are walking your path has a lot to do with the quality of your spiritual shoes: wearing patience, tolerance, curiosity and trust will make it more comfortable and give you the ability to adjust and find the blessing in the event. I look at life as my spiritual training to grow consciously and lovingly and at my body as a sacred temple to process my life experiences. One of my teacher told me to look after my body as if I will live a hundred years and be ready in my mind to leave it at any time! My challenge is to stay present to life and connected with Source on a daily basis, to feel the life force flooding my body and enjoy the great mystery of life. Every soul has its own song and you cannot tell a free soul what to sing or how to sing. That is the soul’s decision to keep its constant drive to expand and grow.
Destiny has been a mixture of awareness and authenticity in following my heart-mind, that innate knowing we all have. That combination has been priceless in guiding me to my life companion, my professional unique approach to help people reconnect with their own inner truth and keeping me aligned during the amazing journey of life. What “vibrates” your Soul? When you find it, your true nature comes to life and can serve others in joy. My deepest desire is that you walk your destiny joyfully.
