"Spiritual testing is the means to the teach lessons and release the things that no longer serve us"
Time to arrange the jewelry box
I do this as a from of meditation
My body responds heavily
Perhpas somewhere in the middle
Of all these pieces I will find
My suppressed femininity
I look through everything
Silvers together
Each in their own box
Only own a few gold pieces
Be sure to find them all
The memory of the lost necklaces
Flashed by many times
The family heirlooms are still here
Old German silver, the stamp ring
The Hawaian corals
And the handcrafted tree
That holds precious stones
But where are the diamond earrings
They aren't really mine
Never considered them to be mine
Just like the necklaces
That were given
From Godmother to Godchild
As a way to express love
In this way, they were priceless
My stress levels rise up
This is exactly why I don't wear jewelry
help me* I whisper to the sky
An image appears before my eyes:
I'm putting them in a small plastic bag
To make sure I don't lose them
****, what did I do
go about your day, they will turn up
Says a soft whisper
And I feel a smile upon me
you will learn something
I go about my day
And as I clear out the mess I made
Making sense of things
I find a small plastic bag
That holds a pair of diamond earrings and a ring
I'm not that irresponsible to lose them
The smile is upon me again...
*you have learned your lesson
Spiritual testing is basically the helping hand that teaches us the basic understanding of love, forgiveness and compassion; it also teaches us who we are and what we do and don't need to work on. In conclution to my recent lesson: ***** the world, Imma go get me a new pair of earrings just for the hell of it.
