“Be strong,” you are advised by others when challenges enter your life, and what do you do? You begin to adopt a human concept of strength. You deny your pain. You cease crying. You raise your chin and tell everyone, “I am fine,” referring to the human who is going through misery. Here is the secret: the human is not fine, but the soul is pure love, pain free, and eternal. In your efforts to be strong, you block out awareness of another side of you that is neither strong nor weak, neither sick nor well, but simply is. Is what? Peace. Pure being.
When challenged physically, emotionally, or spiritually, we will not tell you to be strong. We tell you to shift your focus to the part of you that IS peace. You do not have to find it, simply awaken. Awaken and remember who came into your body in the first place … who animates it. You are far more than a physical body, than a human being. Be not strong, neither be weak. Simply be, and breathe.
