We Aren’t Meant to Juggle with Keys: A love note from Spirit

We Aren’t Meant to Juggle with Keys
A love note from Spirit about carrying too much

If you were to take all the struggles you are currently enduring and refer to them as ‘keys’ to the mystery of life, we can use this imagery to walk through some ideas together. Follow along if you can…

Place all those keys in a bowl. Imagine the bowl by the front door in your house. As you step through the threshold of your door, place the keys in the bowl. Drop them. Place them. Toss them. Use whatever means you wish. Just place the keys in the bowl.

In essence, the idea is to detach yourself from the journey you’ve endured (or enjoyed) in order to let go of its energy. If the recent drive was a burden, drop the key to the experience into the bowl as you would lay the burden in the hands of your angels, trusting the Holy Ones willingness to love and support you through it. Should your journey be light and engaging of the heart, place the key in the bowl in such a way as to show appreciation to the Holy One for all things good.

The trick is to entrust whatever is your current experience to Spirit in order to let go of the tendency to dwell endlessly on the oddities of this or that situation. We tend to overburden ourselves when we carry too much all at once.

Consider this… We cannot make a bowl where our heart should be. Our heart needs to be free to breathe, to expand, to be held up with enough space left to accept the love of the universe intended for us to receive.

When we hold all the keys to all the many stories in our circle in our hands at once, we fall out of balance with that which is within our ability to control. In this state of unintentional overwhelm, we begin to panic. The keys begin to fall from our hands (as is the Holy One’s intention to unburden us). As we watch things fall, clattering to the floor, our brain begins to criticize. We shame and blame ourselves for not being better able to do more, do better.

Let me remind you… We aren’t meant to juggle with keys. They don’t cooperate… There are too many variables, each with different weights, sizes, configurations. What if there was a way to share the multitude?

One would perhaps need to forgive oneself the truth. We are not capable of solving everyone else’s issues, nor are we meant to, clearly, but this does not stop us from trying. Your kindness, your empathetic nature, strong intellect and ability to find logical solutions to complex issues has been duly noted on this side of the affair. The idea of letting go, an area of practice needed…

We love you for all you are and all you do. Now is the time to love yourself equal to what we do. The swirling thoughts held in your head are more than is your intended share.

So, place the keys in the bowl. All of them.

Place all the keys in the bowl as you enter your home and seek to create a place of peace and sanctity and rejuvenation within the walls of your home. (This may take some time, Dear one, you’re out of practice…)

Equally, when you head out the door into your day, reach again into the bowl, choosing wisely, the set of keys which will carry you along a gentle path. You cannot drive your car in five directions at once. Is it any wonder no destination reached satisfies you, of late?

Choose one path and only one. The smaller goal reached bringing a sense of completion. Don’t choose the largest most complex destination. Small and heart centred will boost your sense of self, tenfold.

We encourage you to consider this… If the keys are not in your basket, you cannot hold yourself responsible for what happens on that path. Perhaps drop a few sets out the window on your way to small successes. We love you that much as to wish this for you.

Let go, dear one. Create peace within because you deserve it!

With love,

The Universe and All That Is.
