Even if/when we are not consciously aware of our complacency and complicitous, can our unconscious be fully aware and working with the universe to open our eyes in one big a-ha moment to set us free to live fully the life we were meant to live with all the potentiality that we unknowingly have inside just waiting to burst free?
Because this is what I believe happened to me at the age of 25 when I made a U-turn in life, shocking my family and friends and left the religion of my youth. There were no visible signs that I was not meant to stay complacent and complicit in a life that cannot even be described as living. The thought of having stayed is beyond my comprehension and yet many did – they are still there stuck and stagnant. I’m sure they don’t see it that way and I suppose that is for the best; the realization after so many years may just break a person. This is what I imagine being released from jail must be like after nearly a lifetime sentence – and why so many just want to go back. What kind of life is available on the outside for them now?
So, the question begs to be asked: why do some escape this fate and others do not? To questions like this I only imagine that there are lessons reserved for this life and that other lives must follow. I accept this answer because it is hopeful and what I choose to see is what I will see.
