Why do people commit suicide? The reasons can be more complex than our human minds can possibly comprehend.
It’s too easy for me to push forward, to not see the forest for the trees. My “breakdown” on May 27 forced me to assess the bigger picture: We were doing just fine.
We’re in a storm that I have no control over, and so I’m angry. My guides tell me that I should control what I can, to help myself be less fearful and angry. If what I try isn’t successful, let it be, as something I can’t control.
When I asked them what I needed to heal, my guides told me, “You resist, without even knowing. The way to stop resisting is to be in your body instead of always thinking of everything else. … Do your part, and we will do ours.”
Holy crap, this sounds ridiculous to my logical mind! But my whole body feels different right now. … And I’m feeling the tears that always accompany recognition of Truth with a capital T.
When “confronted with a clear reflection of what is hidden” in myself, “what must be exposed and examined before right action can be undertaken, I must do my best to do what I can, be patient, and simply wait for others to do their parts.
“Be patient with what is unfolding in your own life. Strength requires perseverance, courage, and productivity blended with a faith in yourself, and in Great Spirit’s divine plan. Accept the responsibilities coming your way by drawing upon your inner reserve of strength.”
Stay in the channel you’re in, but when life seems out of control, prepare to chart a new course. And ask what you can do in each moment to improve your life.
