Even if I have nothing, I have enough

Life happens in themes. The trick is to be aware of what season you are in and embrace it instead of running from it or worse, judging it. I grew more frustrated with myself when I was aware and judged. Those same frustrations also resurfaced when I had no idea what was happening and attempted to fight it.

There is no hiding from nature. The ebbs and flows of life are inevitable. The season of letting go is just as fulfilling as the season of abundance. The periods of war are just as inevitable as the times of peace. The beauty comes when you can learn to acknowledge and accept the duality of life. In life, we must learn to observe and experience yin and yang.

The Universal Law of Polarity

I still remember where I was when I learned of Universal Law. I was back in my childhood home after graduating from college. Struggling to find a job. Frustrated. Embarrassed. I thought I had found the Blueprint of making it out. But, I was right back in the projects. Why?

There were some things I had to retrieve.

None of it was tangible.

There was an awakening occurring inside of me. My soul had to return to be connected with my source. As much as I look back on my path self and claim, I should have done more, the truth is, I did exactly what I needed and what I had access to. I did enough. Now, I find myself in a similar intersection. The current climate has again left me unemployed, but this time I no longer have the luxury of falling back to my childhood home. I do have the luxury of wisdom. There is so much I have learned about myself since then. So much I have accepted about myself. No, I still don't have a lot of resources. However, I do have enough.

The most conflict I have ever experienced in life is when I felt I did not have enough. In my seasons of war, I did not have enough peace. In my season of soul restoration and familial healing with my paternal side, I didn't have enough material abundance. God was awakening something within me that I could never touch and it would take years for me to appreciate that season in life. What I gained was far more valuable than a PhD or a high salary, I gained awareness of my soul. In the past, I have had seasons of material gain, but felt so disconnected that nothing I had was ever enough.

Polarity teaches us the importance of integration. Yin and Yang go together, real bad. They were/are never meant to part. If I am in a season of war/chaos and everything around me is falling apart, I remind myself of what I can control. I pray over what I cannot. I gain peace in that moment. As time goes by, I will learn to sit in the middle of a hurricane with nothing but my peace and be content. Life's ebbs and flows will no longer control me. I am the totality of what God made me and what I have awakened within me. No one or nothing can change me, but God and me.

That is the universal truth.

I declare: Life is a beautiful mosaic and I am one of its greatest works of art.
