There is a vast, timeless and boundless landscape to explore, and sticking to a little patch of soil may feel safe, but is it truly satisfying?

Of course, this prison can be a delightful little garden, but it is a prison all the same.

Yet, until we do this, we remain stuck and frustrated at the self-created prison. Letting go of fear and doubt is easy to say, but much harder to do, for it involves facing the fear and riding the anxiety in order to reach pastures new. The more we believe that we can bring about positive change in our lives, then the more we can create positive change! Yet, so often fear and doubt keep us trapped in a self-built prison of restraint, restriction and lack simply because we dare not believe that we can have, do, or be more. Of course, in our inner world, everything is possible, and whilst the reality of everyday life may not appear this way, sometimes we have to shift our perspective in order to see a new way of reaching our goals. Why not explore the wild mountains or the ocean depths? Remember as an inner world, it is of our own making, so why limit it? In fact, the more we create and bring into being within, the more connected we become with the Divine, and the more we realise that we are Divine Beings, sparks of Divine Essence part of the Whole. The garden within is more than just a garden, it is a vast and endless terrain, and it is important not to just focus on the tiny flower bed within sight. The power of intent and belief is a strong one after all. Whilst there are many things that we cannot control (like the quality of the air we breathe), we can visualise clear fresh air entering our lungs even if we cannot physically fully experience it. It is a time to take care of ourselves in every possible way from the food we ingest to the air we breathe. This is a time to nurture, nourish and tend the garden within.


Going with the flow is one thing, but losing sight of everything else is quite another. Of course, the challenge whilst on such a path is to not become totally absorbed or lost in the process. This takes focus, determination, patience and belief, and it takes a great deal of perseverance! Like the daffodils breaking through the earth trying to reach the Sun, each of us seems to be vigorously working towards stepping into the full Light of Truth. Despite this being a time of flux and unrest, there is a growing sense of certainty, clarity and purpose emerging.
