This is very long, and I apologize, but I was moved to write and post this, after walking the Deer Path with my forest friends People who still operate in the 3-dimensional world tend to see Time as a straight line because that’s how they’ve been taught to see it. But the farther we go along our spiritual journey, I think the more we begin to realize that Time is not a linear highway, it’s a meandering delta. Richard Bach described it beautifully in one of his books, I think it was “One,” where he saw it a mass of currents in an ocean, with each current being a separate journey in “reality.” If you’ve ever been in wetlands or a delta, you know the experience of many meandering streams running off of, and then back into, the main river. Some streams meander so far off course that they dry themselves up; other steams gain strength and become small rivers of their own. Still others find their way back to The River. I guess I’m writing this because I feel that now I’m at a place where I see many streams splitting and meandering; I’m at that fork in ”The Road Less Travelled.” But here is the difficult part: some of those streams I cannot travel alone; my traveling them depends on other souls making their own decisions. I have my own path, but there are other paths that must be traveled in company, and those paths I will never be able to follow if someone else says, “No, I can’t go there.” Being an Empath, I tend to see the highest and best in the people I love. But sometimes they cannot see the highest and best in themselves, and because they can’t, they make choices of their own. You cannot question the journey of another soul; it’s their journey, not yours. I have loved people who were exquisite in their glory and couldn’t see it. Or perhaps they were able to occasionally glimpse it, but were afraid of it. They didn’t think themselves worthy of it, or they feared losing their money, or their identity, or their security, even if it was stifling. They just couldn’t brave the Great Unknown adventure. With those people, all you can do is love them and release them. You pray that the Light will find them someday, even if the Light, for them, is not you. You must let them follow their own stream; if it’s meant to join back into yours, it will. Until then, love them, bless them and wave farewell as they go off on their own path. Then, with a tear, turn and follow Yours.
