Have you figured out the answer yet?

I cannot even figure out the question.. let alone the answer...

Have you ever felt like one minute you are strolling along in your life, whistling a happy tune, perhaps watching a fluffy white cloud float on by.. seeing the beauty in the day... and then out of nowhere it all turns to poop...?

Everything that you thought you knew is no longer part of your reality? The things you thought you believed are now being tested... Which brings me to the question of what is the most important question?

If you had to choose one question, as being the most important one in life, what would it be? There are so many options..so many questions that masquerade as "The" question.. so how do you spot the genuine one from the intruder.. the fake.. the liar..
Why am I here?
What is my purpose?
What is my soul's lesson on this visit?
Am I doing the right thing?
What if I choose Option B?
If I make this choice, how will it impact the rest of my life?
Am I a good mother?
Is making this choice the right thing for my children?
Is chocolate really bad for you?

All good questions... but which is the question that determines the fate of your soul for all eternity (or at least on this visit until you get another chance)?

And what if I get it wrong? What if I am sidetracked by a question that seems important at the time, and in doing so I miss the real question... which means that I will need to repeat this cycle does it not?

And what if it is already too late? What if I missed the lesson? What if I was so busy with "the modern life" that I completely missed the lesson that was intended to grow my soul...?

Arrrrgggggghhhhh... yes.. to say the least.. I am feeling frustrated by all of this..

But there is a light at the end of the tunnel..

Very recently someone came into my life who seems to have the same kind of questions I have, the only difference is that she seems further along the path than I am..

Which brings me back to an earlier post (I cannot link you to the earlier post as I was forced to delete it.. yes.. literally forced)... People come into and out of your life when they are supposed to...

So I will breathe..
Slow deep breaths..
One question at a time...

I have not known you for long, but I can most certainly guarantee you that you are not the first to feel this uncertain about decisions that are to be made.
I have learned along the way, and after several heavy panic attacks and quite a few brown bags, that – in the end – there is no such thing as the wrong choice.
It is just a matter of choosing the path that is in the best interest of your higher self.
We so very often run around, frantically searching for the correct answer. When in fact we are just not asking the right question.
We have all the answers we need, we just need to ask the correct question.

So Breath
Slow deep breaths
And start with one answer at a time

I think that the most important thing is that you are asking questions. I do not think that there is one defining question as to our purpose on this planet.

I believe that we are on a journey on which we will be tested, have amazing highs and devastating lows.

As long as we are able to take where we are at any one moment and learn from it, then I think that we are headed in the right direction.

It is once we stop asking questions and simply move blindly with the masses that our life loses its meaning.

Whether or not we find the answers is less important than the fact that we seek them.

Am I a good Dad?
What is my purpose in life?
Why am I here or is there a predestined plan?
Who am I really?
Why have I chosen this path?
Is it the right one?
What happens if I do nothing?
Am I living everyday life as morally and ethically as my ideals?
Do people really think you can’t see them picking their noses while they are driving their cars?

Deep breaths........

Everything is everything....

Why do others seem to have it all worked out?
