Life...A journey full of passing clouds

Looking back at the road left behind, I have come to understand that our journey on this earth is like a picturesque scene from a Monet painting; a scene from nature where sometimes the sky could be clear and bright with no clouds to obstruct our visibility, it could also be sunny but full of puffy clouds forming beautiful shapes in the sky or it could be grey and gloomy full of a rainy tempest.

Each scene represents times in our journey when we encounter situations and people that bring a special energy to match our vibration at a specific moment in our lives. Just like a sunny day, there are people who come into our life to bring us a sense of clarity, a sense of joy and calmness; these people usually have a good heart and they come to show us that life is nothing more than a playground. A playground where we can get loose and be a child again without worries of any kind, allowing life to envelop our being into a state of complete ecstasy.

A sky full of cotton-like puffy clouds forming beautiful shapes represents the people in our lives that come to show us how unique we all are. Just as those puffy clouds form beautiful shapes so do the people in our life create a vast planet full of individual souls with distinct traits that make us special and one of a kind. We are all beautiful beings put together on this planet to interact and learn from one another; our unique traits and talents combined can make us stronger as a human race. But unless we unite to share our common ground, the potential to give love and accept one another, we will always remain separate thus obstructing the path to a united world full of peace and joy. Learning to embrace the different shapes of the puffy clouds in our journey is the beginning of an amazing experience that can bring forth unimaginable lessons of self discovery and growth.

The rainy tempest is just a shift of energy, there are people who come into our experience and turn our world upside down creating the appearance of chaos and turmoil. These situations bring about the worse in us. The tempest brings out all of our emotions sadness, anger, loneliness, depression, and a sense of losing control. The rainy tempest as dismal as it may appear can also bring about the hidden courage we carry within; for sometimes it isn’t until we hit rock bottom that we realize that a change in our lives needs to take place and as a sudden ray of light shines upon our existence, the sun comes back out shining brighter than it ever did before the tempest bringing a sky full of unlimited possibilities and new experiences to rejoice upon.

Life is just a sky full of passing clouds; and just as the clouds, people come in and out of our life to share a moment in time when we are aligned with a specific soul to fulfill a purpose in our own path or the path of the people we come into contact with. Each time a cloud passes through our journey it takes a piece of our soul…a piece of our soul that will no longer return, leaving an empty space to be filled by a new passing cloud in the journey called life.
