The Car Keys

So many times in life we have thought we were ready only to find that a little, or a lot, more seasoning was needed. Typically this discovery happened after we were up to our necks. No? How about that position you thought you were ready for, so many want the title “Boss” until they get it. Or that home improvement project that looked so easy on TV. Not to mention, but I suppose I am, when we were young and so sure we were ready for the world, to be “responsible", grown up. When our children pass through those years all we can do is suggest they slow down and enjoy the time, since once we truly become responsible that horse has left the barn and will never return. They will probably listen as well as we did at that age.

Spiritually it is impossible to demonstrate beyond ones understanding. Many have tried and great has been the fall. Conversely as we grow in spiritual understanding new horizons and opportunities naturally unfold. Truly the keys to the kingdom are in our hands, the timing ours. Choosing to grow day by day in understanding, raising our consciousness a day at a time, we embrace the Truth of Being: that we are timeless children of the Great Creative Lifeforce, connected to everyone and everything. So, just for today, pray gently and meditate on love, seeking spiritual guidance from the voice of Creation within us all. Oh, and when your teenager asks for the keys to the car try to avoid dwelling on the "responsible" things you did in your parent’s car as soon as you were out of sight.
