Things are SO complicated and difficult to decode at this time that many of us are asking for the return to simpler times. Yes. How human of us to desire simplicity. Ease and grace feel more balanced versus the ins and outs of tumult. Most of us who are incarnated here wax poetic about when it was a tad bit easier to follow what was happening in the world, as well as what was happening in our internal landscape. The Great Awakening is upon us, and we are in the midst of a multitude of opportunities to release hidden confusion and complexities within with the hopes of ascending to a higher dimension.
“Can we just roll the clocks back?” is a supplication that is contrary to why he arrived in this reality. Before incarnating, we knew that the ever-changing external landscape would involve turmoil, confusion, and upheaval. Why would we choose to return to this reality if that were the case? Ah… We love it here. We want the challenge to not only heal ourselves through conflict, but to assist others in achieving this goal, as well. Rolling the clocks back does not move us forward in our spiritual evolution.
Extraordinary times. The game of Pong as seen in the posted image reflects simplicity. Back and forth with little challenge. After a while, one can get the hang of it and feel satisfied that they “beat the game.” It appears to be the same with reincarnation and Earth School. First, we do the hangnail drama, and we graduate to more challenging scenarios. Moving up the ladder of spiritual development is our game, and we are up for the task each time we are born.
When you ask the Divine Ones to keep it simple for you, are you doing your part? Are you diving into the complexity of your internal world to find the gems that hold you back from moving forward? It takes the exercise of deep-dive-within to release the gunk first. Then, simpler times may ensue. Despite your human desire to exist in the simple, your soul loves the idea of facing the game and beating it.
Pong is easy for some, yet for others it is difficult because the internal world is so chaotic. The mind and heart connection might be bollixed due to this and other lifetimes’ karmic issues. Again, the inside job of clearing gunk allows for simplicity to ensue.
Some create complicated games because of early training, habit, or the need to self-chastise and/or chastise other. These games are internal combatants that are surmountable if one has a good support system in place. As a former therapist, I always suggest going for therapy, attending 12-step, and other modalities to strengthen self if the obstacles appear insurmountable.
I do believe we are headed for miraculously simpler times. The inexorable confusion is a gift, I tell you! Grab it and face it. Embrace confusion and explore how you can win the game. How you manage your internal reality affects how you manage this external reality.
There is prophecy. There is faith. There is goodness and grace. You choose how you simplify what we’re in now. Win that game of Pong and move up a Tetris level.
Game. Set. Match.
