It seems as though the only thing the mind needs to feel comfort is the idea that it is right.  At least, that is what our ego would tell us.  As long as we have the answer and are in the know then we experience solace.  In theory, this sounds great in our heads but the reality comes right up against two twists.  One, it is not possible to know everything.  Two, the moment we know and check out because we do not have to be present, we miss out on the gift we could not have predicted that would show up while we are here.  The logic would then lead us into a defeatist idea that it is pointless to seek solace because it is not attainable.  God invites us to pause for a moment before conceding defeat and notice there is are other options. If we lived only by the dictates of our egoic mind we would suffer at the place of only operating in the known.  We have already established the limits of the known.  Thankfully we are not just our mind.  We are made of heart and spirit as well.  By taking a breath, awakening our heart energy, and reconnecting the pathway to our minds we can find the solace we seek. The kind of solace that allows us to not fall apart when we are in unknown territory.  It is the spirit of life that spurs us forward into unknown territory with the courage of our hearts not to give up on life’s ability to surprise us.
