The Pieces and the Process

Have you had that unexplainable moment when everything clicks, and you wonder why you did not see it before?

I love these moments! The 'aha' moments of life.

I have been attempting to get a better picture to describe this phenomenon. And once more, it comes back to the puzzle, the quilt, the painting, the book, the machinery, the body, etc. All have pieces and processes that must be gathered together before the final  product is in clear view. Assembly is required.  

In life, as we come to the point when we are tired of the same thing happening over and over, our heart, our spirit says 'enough is enough'. It is in this moment, the true desire to change starts with asking and seeking a path to change. 

I have learned to start by asking Papa (God, the Creator of all) to help me see more clearly. When I begin seeking, I gather information from everywhere. It's like the universe just starts pouring out the pieces of the puzzle in various forms: books, a verse in a song, a line in a movie or television show, conversations,  unexpected encounters, and experiences.  

Gotta love those one on one experiences. For all the book knowledge, there is nothing to bring about clarity like experience. 

You have to be willing to go all in. Almost unknowingly, you are gathering pieces, and they are being laid out before you.  Then, it happens!! The final piece, lesson, experience.  What you were seeking to change and understand is made clear. The aha , the epiphany, the wow, the life changing moment happens! 

There may have been many who attempted to tell or show you, BUT  YOU had to walk through the process yourself. You had to gather the pieces. The pieces were specifically laid out for you. Your individual gathering of information, created just for you to discover. It was the process that allowed the change to happen. The Process!  

It all started with a desire to change...to be all in...to meet each obstacle with the determination to see it thru...the choice not to run and hide and return to the old ways ... even as the emotions of anger, hurt, pain, fear, and discouragement come.  (These emotions are keys to change. They must be looked at for true transformation to take place.) The focus and heart must be set on being Courageous and Strong to see the process through until the change in the soul and the spirit are free. This is when we can truly be at peace with our self and others. It is that freedom, that peace...set aside just for You to experience; for there are no two alike. After all, you...me are a piece of a bigger picture.
