Fate

Some say fate is just the consequence of our actions. Some feel fate is a force outside of themselves. A force to interfere at the worst or best time(s). I do believe fate is a force but I also believe we shape our own fate. The trouble being that many give away their own power allowing others to steer our lives in any direction.

Before I took hold of the steering wheel I suffered from a reoccurring dream that haunted me at least once a week if not more. I was driving a car. To be more specific I was in a car trying to drive it but the situation would vary. For instance, I couldn’t see where I was going and had a constant fear of crashing because the car was speeding. Or I was trying to drive the car under impossible circumstances, like the drivers seat was laying down, or I was in the back seat trying to steer the car safely, or my wind shield was blocked by something and I was straining to see through it.

Like all dreams, they are metaphor playing out subconsciously to have us look at what needs our attention in our waking life. It wasn’t that I figured out the message my dream was trying to send me but rather as I started healing and grieving and taking back my power in my life I never had the dream again.
