This evening I saw parts of myself I am not proud of. Anger and ego interfered with my feelings of trust. I need to let myself open up to the way things are, instead of trying to control them in a way I feel they need to be controlled.
The I Ching (or Oracle of Changes) says that an obstacle lasts only as long as it is necessary. If this is true, then I am going through some serious learning stuff, and I need to be more receptive.
Someone recently asked me how I feel about the idea of unanswered prayers (or in this case, things not going the way I think I want them to be going). I replied that this simply means there is something better coming.
Now..if I can just get myself out of the way to see what it is…
