I am sure you are all at varying degrees in your pain. To me, the lily says that you could be stuck at any point in your grief. You could be stuck in the bulb, experiencing deep grief, not engaging in life and your relationships. You could be situated somewhere along the stem of the plant struggling to bring forth a flower but life to you is a struggle because of the pain you are feeling. Or you could be at the flower stage. Here you could be functioning in the world yet you are not experiencing life to the full because of the pain. Or you’re at the end of that long trumpet flower you go out into the world but you feel numb, you don’t open up to life and relationships, you may feel like a walking zombie.
Naturally each bulb wants to grow into a flower that is what they do. You have a path to tread which is your natural course. You really want to reach your full potential but at the moment you feel you cannot. That bud and stem naturally want to bring forth that beautiful strong flower. The flower wants to dance in the wind, be pollinated, enjoy its life as a flower and then bring forth other flowers when it drops its seeds. The bulb, stem and flower want to experience life to the full and express its potential, like you.
I know that you really want to open yourself up to life again but you find you are stuck. How do I let go of my pain, trust life and myself again and be able to create my dreams again?
This course will allow you to do all this. You will come to know and meet your real self and appreciate where you have been and where you are heading. Being connected to your intuition you will able to look at why this situation has occurred in your life and gain wisdom about the experience. You will be able to turn pain into gain. I know that sounds strange but I believe you don’t go through these experiences without a reason. My experience has shown to me, that when these things happen, you become the expert about these situations. You have something to offer others when they experience similar situations. You may not see this at the moment and when you do, the course will support you. It identifies your special gifts, talents and your purpose in life. I am sure a lot of you will become teachers or the like. Who else is better equipped to teach about grief than the ones who have experienced it.
I want to say that this course is not about “forget it” and definitely not about “get over it”.
