The wat...I think your thoughts are similar to mine. The water is a sign of a cleansing to me. She's been to the river, been baptized in the truth, she tried and heard the pride (the pride may be a reference to the ego or the "pack" ie society) she tried the pride that is supposed to give you worth and make you feel good. Pride can come from accomplishments, but if there are no accomplishments, do you not have any worth? Having pride in yourself denotes greatness or nobility, but if you are not of noble blood etc, you can't get real pride because IT MUST BE GIVE TO YOU BY OTHERS. So true pride comes from within by valuing yourself and knowing your worth. I too see Cindi at the top of a mountain, or a high place where she can declare that she's done waiting-she's declaring her independence. I tried to spread the message, but no one is listening. She's not angry, rather it's a battle cry, a crying out that she's done, she has to save herself "I know you love me, but I'm still gone". <br />She's trying to wake you up and get you to see what's going on and how your beliefs are shaping your thoughts and your thoughts shape your reality. "To get lost in your thoughts is a very very complex thought. It's the way you believe that becomes the very thing you see" <br />Your thoughts/beliefs shape the way you see and categorize the stuff of life, why people behave the way they do or how you wish they'd behave and a host of other thoughts that are racing around in that beautiful brain all competing for your attention..."I gotta find my peace" <br />She wants to escape this confusion and leave the lies, mistrust and frustration behind. She wants to be able to trust others the same way she trusts herself. She's realizing that each person must identify what bars they constructed for themselves, and then they have to get real and get honest and start breaking through to free themselves. You have to examine your thoughts, they surprise you and lead to other thoughts but the real thing is you get stuck in all that thinking and it gets all tangled up so you don't know what you are thinking anymore. She wants to clear out, know peace and be free. My own personal belief is that lots of things try to get your attention and most times we can just stand there moving your head around trying to see which one is the most important. It's a 3 ring circus and you always miss what's going on in the other rings when you choose one to watch. But the real thing is you need time alone to wait all that out, till the noise starts to settle, and then you begin to hear yourself. Proof of this is how when you have something really important to say, you whisper it, right? You don't go out in the street and start yelling your innermost thoughts and dreams to anyone. The message is so important, it must be carefully delivered, so it gets whispered and you can hear yourself better when it's quiet in your head. That is usually how you get right with stuff, hear your God, the Universe, the message. The more you do it, the easier it is to hear though all the noise. The more familiar it is to you and the easier it is to recognize the voice of God, because it's YOU.<br />Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12116888653543549564noreply@blogger.com
