Have you noticed patterns to your life… similar challenges or even blessings that crop up repeatedly starting in childhood? Popular opinion is that we’re repeating patterns, attracting circumstances until we learn the spiritual lessons from them and they can pass on, and we move to the next set of lessons.
What if, instead of being controlled by the law of attraction and our dominant thoughts our lives are orchestrated around themes. These themes are the songs you came here to sing — your heart music. These patterns appear not because we’re attracting or creating them, but that those themes are why we are here.
Some themes that crop up repeatedly through my life include music, integrity, freedom, family, communication, vulnerability, authenticity, connection, friendship, collaboration, community, love, inspiration, spirituality, clarity, understanding, creativity, trust, respect, responsiveness, acknowledgement, etc.
My challenges generally fall in these areas and my greatest blessings fall in these areas. What if I’m not “attracting” anything good or bad? These are simply the songs I came here to play with all their major and minor chords, with their harmonies and dissonances.
The people who are in my life are here to collaborate on the music and give me lots of opportunities to practice. Some of those songs are sad songs, love songs, ballads, dance tunes or inspirational praise.
There is a time and a season for every song under heaven. A sad song is no less beautiful in its own way than a hymn of praise.
