When the Universe Throws You Against the Wall.

 


Today, I write with a heavy heart. It’s been one of those days that crack you open from the inside out — the kind that make you question everything, the kind that force you to face yourself with no escape route.


I hit a stumbling block I didn’t see coming. One minute I was walking steady, the next I was flat on the floor, staring at the ceiling of my own doubts. My mind spirals with questions: What am I going to do? How do I move through this? What if this is the end? The panic feels sharp, but at the same time, there’s a strange calm beneath it all. It’s unsettling — like my soul knows something my body hasn’t caught up to yet.


Maybe I’ve shifted. Maybe the old paradigm is truly dying, crumbling at my feet, and I can no longer force myself to live by its rules. Maybe this is the system casting me out, showing me that there’s no more room for me in the life I’ve outgrown.


And isn’t it funny how it happens? Right when you’re on the brink of something greater — when success is within reach — that’s when the ground shakes. That’s when life throws a curveball, and suddenly, your faith isn’t theory anymore. It’s tested. Hard.


I prayed for change. I asked for growth. And now here it is, wrapped in chaos and dressed like disappointment. The very thing I prayed for is arriving as a stumbling block. And maybe that’s the point: what looks like failure is actually the scaffolding of my freedom being built in real time.


But God, it’s hard. It’s hard to smile when your chest feels like it’s splitting. It’s hard to nod politely at people while inside you’re screaming. It’s hard not to let the smallest things get under your skin when you’re carrying a storm inside.


Yet, I can’t deny what I feel deep down: this is a stepping stone. This is the bridge from comfort zone to dreamscape. This is the risk I didn’t plan for, the lightning bolt I didn’t expect, the rude awakening I didn’t schedule. The universe has a way of tearing down the last threads of procrastination, of stripping away the ego’s flimsy walls, of yanking you — willingly or not — out of the matrix.


My ego panics. My soul stays calm. That paradox terrifies me. And yet, somewhere in between the fear and the calm, I know the truth: the eclipse is doing its work. The new moon energy is rearranging me, forcing me out of the shell I’ve been hiding in.


I don’t like it. I don’t have to like it. But I know it’s for my own good.


So here I am: broken open, raw, standing at the edge of myself, staring at the unknown with equal parts terror and awe. And if you’re going through it too — stumbling, breaking, unraveling — know this: you’re not alone. We’re all being cracked open together.


The question is, will we resist the process, or will we finally let ourselves become who we were always meant to be?

The pattern isn't the problem. Lack of awareness is

Today I found myself deep in thought again. To be honest, I usually am. My mind tends to wander into questions most people pass by without noticing. Something pulled me toward the The Emerald Tablets of Thoth the Atlantean, specifically the chapter about the Key of Time . It speaks about time not as a straight line, but as something circular. Cycles. Loops. Patterns that repeat themselves until something changes. That idea stayed with me long after I finished reading. Because when you look closely at life, it starts to feel true. Our past has a strange way of shaping our future. Childhood experiences, the things we witness growing up, the wounds we carry without even realizing it. They settle somewhere deep within us and quietly influence the decisions we make later on. You often hear people say, “I will never repeat the mistakes my parents made.” On the surface, that sounds like a powerful promise. A vow to do better. A vow to be different. But sometimes that vow becomes something h...

A Prayer for the Hell I Know

Image
  Lord I miss home. Not because it was gentle not because it was kind but because it was familiar. I hated it there. I hated the walls the voices the way pain learned my name. And yet compared to where I stand now it feels like shelter. I thought this place would save me. I thought safety lived here that peace wore this address. But saints can be cruel Lord crueler than demons who admit what they are. They smile with Scripture on their lips hands lifted in worship eyes closed to the wreckage they cause. They never look in the mirror. They hide behind the Bible behind church doors behind the illusion of holiness. So here I am praying words I never thought I would dare to say. Send me back. Back to the hell I know. Back to the demons whose faces I recognize. I would rather bleed where I understand the wounds than suffocate among those who call themselves pure while sharpening their knives in secret. I hate that I want this. I hate that I have no choice. I hate that endurance has beco...

Letting Go is Hard, But It Needs to Happen.

  Letting go sounds simple when you say it out loud. But the truth is, it’s one of the hardest things the heart ever has to learn. Sometimes it’s not the leaving that hurts the most — it’s what rises to the surface when someone returns. Recently, a person who once meant the world to me came back. Our story never ended with a dramatic goodbye. No fight. No explanation. Just silence — the kind that echoes in the spaces where words should have lived. We were close once. The kind of close where conversations flowed without effort and laughter came easy. Beneath the friendship lived something neither of us expected — a soft, unspoken love that surprised us both. And just as quickly as it appeared, he pulled away. The distance wasn’t just physical; it unraveled something inside me. His silence awakened parts of myself I didn’t know were fragile. Insecurity. Obsession. The fear of not being enough. I became desperate for crumbs of attention, and somewhere along the way, I began losing mys...
