Smooth sailing

Said the heart to the five senses: “ When setting out into deep waters remember to untie the boat and heed the blinking signal of the lighthouse; feel the emotion of the waves and steer clear of the school of fish enjoying their lessons.

First, life presented me with lessons to set into the deep recesses of the mind where the five senses had their storehouse of memories. Then came the testing of stormy waters and calm seas heading into the ocean and ever memory came with its triggers and tension. I forgot al about the lighthouse!
Many times I had a life jacket that did not help the compass point me where I wanted to be so I can get a closer looker at the blinking lights until I locate the map way down in the cabin

The light house just kept doing what lighthouses are suppose to do everything except to relocate their position which to me would have been the life saving role of a light house. Of course I learnt that this is the life saving role that the heart was asking me to remember when I decided it was time to leave the shore and shadows of my mental phantoms

I was too far from shore and way off from the horizon and I did not want to go back to shore or stay in the middle of the boat in the middle of the ocean so I spoke up to the lighthouse. I knew that was one of those irrational ideas and I did it without stopping to think that the lighthouse can only blink. Well it blinked and blinked brightly enough that I could see the whole cabin and there was the compass and map that I was looking for.

Tensions and triggers that in the past had pulled me in opposite directions of my proposal to Life are now working in balance and harmony in carrying me through to my destined desires.

Emotional maturity and past experiences continue to pave the way
