![]() ![]() Many of these hold little meaning or fulfillment. ![]() Make Time & Space We get on a hamster wheel in our lives filling our time with tasks that must be done. The thing that most stands in the way of the life you want to live is the life you are living now. We must be willing to let go of what and where we are to grow into what we are meant to be. Here is how to get out of your own way and grow It is in our struggle to grow and pursue what is most important to us that we find we are enjoying our lives along the way. The secret so many of us fail to discover is that in becoming all that we are we will find our greatest joy. We just need to take the time to remember the nature of who we are, discover what is in the way and chose to grow despite any factors threatening to get in our way. Unlike acorns, humans have an amazing capacity for creativity, healing and resilience. We can chose to reconnect to everything we need to get our shot at becoming all that we are. While we too can certainly face harsh environments, get gobbled up and swept away by countless predators or fail to be offered the nutrients we need, we retain the ability to start again at any time. Fooling us into forgetting our place in nature and that the rules of acorns apply to us as well.įor all our advanced development we struggle to reconnect to our essential nature and can lose sight of what we already have or really need to develop into all we are meant to be. Humans are so advanced that our own arrogance can become a hindrance. The more complex the creature the more complex these factors are, they can even be tragic. At the same time, there are many factors that can help or hinder whether the potential is actually met. In all of nature the worth and value of a thing is inherent, all the ingredients are there to reach the potentials of that being. I think this is an apt analogy to humans. However, there are a whole lot of acorns out there that get gobbled up, crushed, swept away or may even put down roots but never fully mature. ![]() Like the acorn we develop best when we are fortunate enough to fall on solid ground and receive the right nutrients to grow into all we can be. Just as the acorn has everything it needs within it to become a tall, strong oak tree, we have within us everything we need to be a beautiful human soul, capable of infinite, amazing things. An acorn needs no instruction, if it is lucky enough to fall on solid ground and get the right nutrition it can develop into the oak tree it was always meant to be. It seems other things in nature more easily and readily unfold. After all, isn’t it in our nature to instinctively develop into all that we are? Why is it so darn hard? It seems odd that we need seemingly endless instruction, redirection, tips and tools to happily and successfully navigate our own lives. The biggest struggle human beings face is to reach their potentials and simply enjoy their lives. ![]()
