Ebb and Flow
by BlackLion

Our lives have many energies throughout our day, week, month and year. Whether it is packing up the belongings left by a dearly departed friend or creating amazing art with performer colleagues, the ebb and flow of this energy can be very high or very low depending on the moment. How you work through that energy is up to you.

We’ve all had moments where we can get lost in a flood of energy, washed out by strong emotions of others. Maintaining a semblance of stability can sometimes be a challenge. Take a moment for yourself and meditate, read a book, go for a walk, or just cry. This will help you find relief after strong emotional challenges.

When you are surfing on the top of a wave, remember to stay grounded in yourself as well. The wave will ebb again and if you are off-balance, the ground may get rough. Balance in your spiritual guidance and inner knowing. Of course enjoy the ride, yet also nurture yourself when you come back down.

The ebb and flow of life can take you to places yet unexplored in your experience. Allow the energy to move. Resistance brings only more challenges later on. Accept the now as it is, yourself and all included. You’ll be amazed at how you can maneuver through your life with grace and dignity.
