What your soul knows you can handle

The divine will never give you more than you can handle.

But what your ego thinks it can handle,

Is different to what your soul knows you can handle.

Every difficult experience is an opportunity to grow your soul.

To grow your soul is to open more deeply to the direct experience of the divine.

Your heart is a portal to the infinite, but the walls around it must be cracked open for the light to pour in.

If you allow every difficult experience to crack your heart open, it becomes an opportunity to come closer to your true nature:

A divine child of God.

All of your challenges were designed exactly for you,

they are exactly what was needed

to make you realize the love that you are.

It is of critical importance that we do not let what’s happening in the world make us lose our capacity to love one another

I am having massive heart openings witnessing people from all different walks of life unite for freedom, and massive heartbreaks watching people dehumanize others, even their own families, over differences of belief and personal health decisions.

Since beginning of 2020, I’ve cried more times than I can count about how I’m experiencing what’s happening in the world. It breaks my heart. Crying helps me stay human. Knowing how to have a good cry helps free me so I can also have a good laugh. We need to keep being willing to FEEL what is happening and how this actually is for us— in order to stay HUMAN.

Nothing is worth losing your humanity over.

Nothing is worth hating another person over.

We will need to be able to grieve well to survive this Time of Transition. The grieving will help us to laugh, dance, sing, and create beauty, which will help us turn the darkness into light.

My point is, if we can stay in our human experience during these chaotic times it will give us the best chance to survive it—with our hearts still in tact.

It is of critical importance that we do not let what’s happening in the world make us lose our capacity to love one another.

It has been my life experience that trauma, when used as a catalyst for healing, can open our hearts to an even greater love than was ever possible before.

It breaks the armour around the heart right open.

I love you all. We will survive.

“The problem is that, because you have repressed your tears of sadness, misery, pain — when you are joyful, rejoicing, then too your old repression continues; you go on holding your tears.”

“Don’t be uptight. Don’t live life according to principles. Live life in its totality, drink life in its totality! Yes, sometimes it tastes bitter—so what? That taste of bitterness will make you capable of tasting its sweetness. You will be able to appreciate the sweetness only if you have tasted its bitterness. The man who knows not how to cry will not know how to laugh either.”
