Dear Savvy Woman,

We can all wonder if we’re learning what we’re suppose to be learning on this journey in life.   I know for myself, sometimes it feels like I’m not learning when I’m stuck in a pattern and I’m wondering ‘where it is’ if it’s a manifestation, or, when I seemingly take steps backward and find myself in a ‘situation’ that’s undesirable.

The thing is, the soul doesn’t go backwards.  Our soul accumulates our life experiences, and although from the ‘outside’, it might appear that we’re slipping backwards, our soul knows.  Our soul has a life map, which includes some contract agreements with others, and experiences in life that we’re meant to have in this lifetime.

Talking with a savvy woman recently, she was looking at a love that was no longer and looking deeply at the fact that it seemed as if ‘He’ was a soul mate.  A Soul Love.  And so if so, now what?  Understanding that we come into this lifetime with soul contracts and that we learn from everyone, and everything, I offerred her the perspective and truth that the soul doesn’t go backward.  That despite it feeling like ‘he was it’ and the pain seems unbareable, there IS a greater plan.  

Sometimes we’re in so much pain we’re not ready to receive this, and this falls on deaf ears.  She was able to receive this, she already knew.  But it was helpful to her, she said, to be reminded of this Truth.  This Truth can be the net that catches you when you’re falling into the seemingly dark abyss.  The beauty here, is that if you can lean into this Truth more, it allows you to loosen the ‘where is it’ or ‘why’ grip more, and you become increasingly Present in the moment and to your life.  More and more possibility and opportunity live in this special place.

Then, next time around, the relationship, the job you take, the experience you have with someone’s illness – whatever the situation be – you bring to it the richness of your soul’s knowing.  And as always is the case, eventually you can *see* the ‘why’ that your heartache, or pain, or denial didn’t allow you to see at the time.  That is, if you are awake to your soul and to the greater unfolding of your life, some of which was already mapped out before you were born.

Isn’t it amazing?

Lots of love,

Leslie
