Inner Transformation

The lone seed in the ground has neither sunlight nor breeze to caress it, and yet transforms itself into a little plant that one day reaches for the sky. The caterpillar, held breathless in the suffocating bosom of a dark cocoon, emerges as a colourful butterfly, flying free and proud through the flowers. A pearl in an oyster, wine in the casket, even a song or painting is first created in a solitary moment and transformed into an eternal inspiration.

We have to make a conscious choice about how we deal with our moments of ‘aloneness’. Fear, anger and frustration will make us wither away to the dust of anonymity, while turning the dungeon into a creative ‘womb’ will breathe new life. Give things time, have faith in the perfection of the plan that is to unfold.

These are the moments when we can reach out into the magnificence of our higher Self and realise our deepest thoughts, visions and talents.

Perhaps, in the crowd, we are too focused on the speedometer and forget to watch the milestones. Being alone, we can once again “just be”. By being yourself, you put something wonderful in the world that was not there before.
