Personal Growth - Letting Go of the Old Paradigm and Making Way for the New

11/01/2012 11:46

This entire life journey in which we are taking part is an evolution - a journey of growth and expansion, with no particular destination other than to come out the other side further, broader, at a higher level EMC E20-616 exam of understanding than before. And hopefully to encourage others along the way, so that we may raise global consciousness while we are here and leave this place a little better than we found it - for everyone. This is a marvelous undertaking
As I seek to move forward on my own journey, as I seek expansion, enlightenment, growth, as I seek to "uplevel" myself, I seek out those truths around me that align with my inner knowing and pursue them. Of course, "truth" is different for each of us. This leads to "contrast", meaning we will be presented with things that are "truth" for another, but which do not align with us.
This can become a gritty and at times even painful process as we sift through the EMC E20-001 exam contrast looking for truth. As you find things that expand your knowing, you are sometimes challenged in your belief system. Growth, by definition, means that you MUST stretch beyond that which you have been up to this point. This can feel uncomfortable as belief systems are challenged, as those things that you have clung to up until now must be released in order to make room for the new.
One of the great masters, Jesus Christ once said that you can not put new wine into old wineskins, lest the old skins break and all will be lost - both the skins and the wine. We go around trying to fit new truths into our old or existing paradigm so that we can still cling to what is comfortable, so that we can still feel in control. But at some point, this won't work any more. If the old paradigm is stiff and inflexible, it will eventually shatter and at that moment, we can feel very lost for a time - out of control.
Whenever you are in the throes of contrast, when you feel like you don't know which way is up anymore, REJOICE, because you are on the verge of a breakthrough! Try to hang on to that thought. You are growing. When you 250-365 feel lost, simply seek comfort from your Higher Self. Give it over to your Higher Power and LET GO! When you let go, you can release needing to know. And when you can release needing to know, then, like an innocent child, you can simply be open to the wonder that unfolds in front of you without being tied to an "agenda". The miracle unfolding in front of you is YOU!
