I know that before I can climb higher into this mountain I must sit here on a rock; beside the stream of past sins, hurts, pains and regrets.
The rock is uncomfortable but I know that without this time of reflection I will not stay the course of this upward climb. The weight of the baggage will wear me down and I will head back into the valley of my predictable discomfort.
I start with childhood and look at experiences that have haunted me. I must see these now as an adult and realize the truth and discard the falsehood of what I have held on to. The evil one in this world would prefer I not do this ; so I seek the Saviors help in this cleansing. I must toss the lies, deceptions and dependency of each experience into the stream.
I can write down the positive things I learn and answer the question, "How could I change this outcome if this experience were to cross my path again?" I could seek the counsel of the Good Book that I have in my backpack. I can kneel and pray until I feel all the pain slipping into the stream. I can wait and listen for the call of God to beckon me to keep moving....
I have left the stream which leads back down the mountain and I now enter into the meadow of solution. I feel lighter and stronger and my senses much keener. I hear the call of the eagle and I know that I can continue on this walk and not grow weary. I can run and not fall down. The climb is becoming easier and the peaks ahead do not seem to worry me today
