"MAP OF YOUR LIFE"
by Tahlia Hunter
by Tahlia Hunter
"Legend says that
before you were born,
you were given a map of your life.
This map contained the greatest joys, sorrows,
dreams, heartaches and challenges of your life
along each step of the path.
But the second that you enter the world,
it is forgotten.
And for each other person in existence,
they too forget their map.
And though at first, it remains invisible,
through each and every encounter with life,
you attempt to recreate
what you have forgotten
but believe to be true
deep within your soul.
And through challenges,
a voice within you tells you to keep moving forward,
for you are an alchemist,
and though bad things may happen,
you can make good things out of them.
And though life is much like chess,
where once you make a move
you cannot unmake it,
it is never too late
for you to recreate the future
through the present moment,
and in doing so,
rewrite the past.
And through tears,
when people exit your life,
a deep wisdom within you tells you
that this is as it must be,
and that one day, you will be reunited.
And that no matter how unlikely it may seem,
them leaving you occurred
for a higher purpose
beyond what you can presently fathom.
And though they may have had to go,
this was a planned part of your path,
for your journey here is merely temporary
and is a small speck within your entire existence.
And you must remember on the map
that each step is not purely defined
by the action you take in the physical world
but what is happening energetically within you:
healing past trauma and wounds
and finding love, forgiveness and acceptance.
And you may trust during times of stillness or inaction
that the arrow is being pulled backwards
so that it can be pulled forwards.
And when love seems to evade you,
you may be reminded of the fact
that you are your own soulmate
before you are someone else's.
And it matters not who exits or enters your life,
for you are your own home,
and on a deeper energetic level,
all are one, as all are connected.
And though you may regret past steps you have taken,
you cannot fault yourself
for getting lost in life
when you had forgotten the map.
But you may trust that you will slowly acquire it
through each experience
and that you will eventually find your way.
And all will make sense in the end,
once you reach the other side.”
