I started along my spiritual journey waaay back in the late 1980's. My work life was pretty good...I had a job that payed well and that, okay it was stressful, but I could cope. Anyway I decided to follow my dream which was to design crystal jewellery and gifts. So I left and started my own business. The thing is sometimes this has worked ok...other times it has been a real struggle to achieve what I wish. Now 14 years on, I have an established business that pays me...but it is still not quite how I would ideally like it to be. My question is this. If we are following our labour of love, surely the way should be made easier, not more difficult? I could have stayed within the protection of the company I worked for and never had to try to make ends meet.....as has been the case in the past. I could have never left my safety zone and given something new to the world...yet I did. IP: Logged |

Hi Hidden Genius,I've asked the very same question "Does life get easier?" but for a different context . . . In that there are some friends around me who are struggling at differents points in life. Some are first time parents, one who just had cancer surgery, etc etc. When I was making my career switch, I had heard that if you followed your spirit and pursued your dream that fell in line with your true spiritual path, the money would follow. Words to that effect. I think Linda said the same in Star Signs? Are you happy? IP: Logged |

Since I wrote this my life has changed, evolved and definately gotten much better!I was confused, I thought I was following my labor of love and yet it was so difficult...yes when I was working in design eveything was easier and I made a good living. Then out of nowhere I got offered some free-lance work once again within designing. So I thought "ok, this might just be a sign", I accepted the work. Oh things are so improved in my life. I am happy doing something that comes easy to me, the client loves what I have done for him so far and I am about to get my first wages cheque from him, for far more than I have earned for a long time. Lesson here is...I already had my labor of love....and left it behind to try something else. The Universe has been trying to show me I was wrong...things should indeed get easier, not more difficult. Eventually an opportunity came along and I am eternally grateful for being shown the direction my career should now proceed in. Thanks for the comment xxxxx IP: Logged |
