Where are Your Keys Part 2
As stated in the previous blog, most of us have learned that it’s best to keep our physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual keys in our own pockets. Being human, once in a while, we forget and give them to someone else. Sometimes, we take someone else’s keys and try to drive their car. Either way, this doesn’t work very well and we have to slide our own keys back into our own pocket.
With that said, how are your keys to life, love, happiness, relationships, and career arranged?
Are they on your keychain in order of priority?
Are they all in a jumble?
Are your keys dropped on the floor and you’re too despondent to pick them up?
Are there other things on your physical and psychological keychain that don’t belong there?
And in which pocket are your keys?
Sometimes we have our keys in perfect order. Our priorities are clear. We put our keys in our front or even breast pocket. During these times we literally feel like we have the keys to life in the palm of our hands.
At other times, our keychain is a mess. Other things find their way onto our keychain which weighs us down. In fact, we can no longer fit our keys into our pockets easily. During these times, we walk around annoyed. We might even say out loud, “My keys are too heavy! It’s not my fault! Someone else organized them!” With ease, we find fault with everyone else and with everything outside ourselves.
After dropping our keys over and over and over again, we sit ourselves down. Taking life’s keys out from our pockets we give them a hard scrutiny. We sigh. Changes must be made. With heavy hearts, we discard what’s no longer serving us and keep what does. We organize them. Perhaps placing house, car, church, work, and recreation keys beside one another in this fashion. Next, we give our keys some polishing in order to fit them into the doors of our life easier!
Once organized and polished, we have one more task to do. We must figure out which is the best pocket for our keys. Whereas, once the front, back, and side pockets worked, now our keys need a new home. The best place for our keys to life, happiness, success, love, serenity, joy, relationships, kindness, and peace is in our breast pocket next to our hearts.
I challenge you to take out your physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual keys and give them a good look. Take those unwanted keys off your keychain. Don’t even give them away, they won’t fit anyone else’s doors. Just toss them in the proverbial trash can. Then, spread the keys you want out, polish them, bless them, and give thanks for them in your life. One by one, in order of preference, glide them back onto your keychain and then take a moment in the silence to feel them and connect with them. Then, with love, slide your keys into your breast pocket. There you will nurture them and keep them safe until the proper time to bring them out and use them.
Your keys to life are sacred! They are yours and yours alone. They are your divine gifts to unlock whenever you want! The challenge is for you to realize you have choices in how and when to use your keys. In keeping your keys close to your own heart allowing yourself to love, be loved, and feel down to your core that you’re lovable, you will change the way you see and change the way you live.
