I went outside to clear my discouraged and darkened heart today and asked for something in nature to speak to me:
- I asked for guidance in maintaining hope, faith, and courage.
- I asked for strength to get up and try once more.
- I asked for self love, compassion, and non-judgment of myself when I fall, back slide, or slip in my progress.
- A crow feather, lay in my path, so I picked it up and walked around the yard again, asking it to give me guidance.
This is the wisdom that the feather shared:
- Remember that it is darkest before the dawn.
- Don’t give up now. Keep at it even if the heart is crying and you are discouraged and tired.
- Remember you have the strength and ability to overcome all obstacles.
- You are changing and feeling a symbolic death and you will find that which will most benefit yourself and others.
- Be fearless and determined.
- Know you are being transformed from darkness to light and from physical to spiritual.
I am listening crow and I ask for your guidance, your strength, and your ability to maneuver through the changes that I am feeling within.
