Too Late

"Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother"...(Khalil Gibran). If people are offered a gift and they turn it down....suffering will follow. I have had some ineteresting cases lately regarding love. A male client of mine had an opportunity for love. He suffered for the past few months, missing the woman he fell in love with and trying to figure out his feelings. His feelings had tormented him and had kept him up many nights....along with love was fear and when he was presented with one last opportunity to be with her....he froze and confusion won. He lost her. Yes, even the most intense, soul mate connections can be undermined by fear. Doubt will determine your fate, if you allow it to. If you challenge doubt...you walk by faith and you determine your path. People often believe that if things are meant to be, then fate will bring two people back together eventually. That may or may not be true. When fate calls your number and an opportunity is placed directly in front of you, thanks to free will....you can say yes or no. Fate does not question whether people are "ready" for the opportunity. If the opportunity is placed in front of you, then you are ready on some level, otherwise you would have never attracted that opportunity at that particular time. People endlessly question and create numerous excuses, fate doesn't. Fate says....right here and right now......your wish is my command, so here you go! The test for you is whether you seize the opportunity or do you back away and let doubt take over?  People often create excuses because of self worth issues. Another man recently disclosed to me that he backed away from the love of his life because underneath all of the excuses, he felt that he was not worthy of her. Even though this man had received numerous messages pointing him in her direction, he still questioned. Not to say that people cannot do some soul searching and that growth isn't in order when that opportunity you've secretly wished for presents itself. The key is not wasting too much time spinning your wheels mired down in doubt, confusion and fear because the window of opportunity just might close.  Our spiritual guides may be benevolent souls, but their patience wears thin as well. If you back off from an opportunity too long, the universe takes that as a no and many more tougher lessons are in order. This is not about punishment, it is about teaching us to be stronger and to accept the gifts being offered to us. Once again, if an amazing opportunity presents itself...then quickly do the soul searching necessary to embrace that gift because the Universe believes you have earned it. Only us humans questions our worth and value. On a spiritual plane, we are not judged....we are just learning lessons. I have to say that the more I trusted my intuition, the more I have been rewarded and my confidence grew by leaps and bounds. Now I walk by faith and it always serves me well. So which twin are you going to be best friends with....doubt or faith?
