I received this message today from Guru Singh and I think it is a perfect description of the midlife transition process… and an awesome way to understand how to avoid crisis…. More on this to come…
Where you are actually located right now in this life is what is referred to as your fate
. . . the actual conditions and consciousness and emotions and thoughts
of this very accurate — yet un-progressed and un-regressed — moment.
Your destination in this life . . . the reality of who you ultimately are
— who you can become through all your activated options
— is referred to as your destiny.
The journey of a human life is to travel from where you are
— your fate — to who you are — your destiny.
Most people consciously or unconsciously distract themselves
from living in either of these locations.
They are neither where they are, or who they are,
but a chaotic mixture of being distracted from the actualities
of fate and doubting the possibilities of destiny.
All this while life — patiently and dutifully — waits on some parallel track
. . . waiting for consciousness to awaken to at least one of these opportunities.
The process of destiny has forever
. . . the awakening however, will take place in a single given moment
. . . welcome its arrival with all your heart and with every breath
