A Message From The Ocean

Welcome, dear one,

It’s been a long time that  I have seen you around. You look older than before. I have waited for you for a long time now. I wanted to say that I missed you. I missed us.  When you came inside me with your bare feet, fearing nothing and giving all your vulnerabilities to me, I felt overwhelmingly happy that you trusted me so much.

I never judged you or your deeds just as you expected. I just want to love you unconditionally and give you all that I have to offer. I am the ocean and I have seen many people throughout my life, coming here and giving their all to me. Some brought peace, some brought love, some were angry and some just released all their sadness while they felt my waves washing away their unpleasant thoughts.

You are very precious to me because you knew what I have done all my life, what  I have been through and what I have seen. You saw my rage and my mischief. You could make the difference between when I  was at my lowest. I never have to speak to tell you how I am feeling.

I am very glad that you came tonight to see me.  Tonight it’s different. The sky is merging with me covering my waters with a white haze. The sun has already settled and it is getting darker. I am very raveled tonight, after seeing the world turning upside down. It doesn’t make sense to me how you humans live on this earth. I feel lucky that I am an ocean and my purpose is just to swallow everything that is being presented to me.

I want to ask you, dear one, don’t you feel tired by everything that’s been happening lately? you have everything yet you feel lonely. You feel confused to choose what is true and what is right for you. As you got older I have seen your smile getting dim with every passing year. What is it that is making you sadder? I  miss your smile and I am glad that I could still see the same person in you when I first met you.  I  hope that  I could make you smile a little and take your baggage away for a while. You know you can rest here whenever you feel like it.

Oh dear one, please let your guards down as there is nothing to fear from. You are safe with me and I  am here, just for you. I want you to know that you are the best thing that has happened to me and to this world and you are worth more than you think you are.  There are many others who are in your position right now. I also want to tell you that you are not alone, but you are still, a little different from them because they don’t know to rest. No one ever told them that the baggage that they are carrying can be put aside whenever they feel like.

You don’t have to worry to be seen when you are with me. You don’t have to be impatient to make yourself seen. Here, I see everyone and when I say that I see you that means I SEE YOU. I can see your old soul that’s been on this long journey for a century or even more. You don’t remember coming here because, after your last breath, you took up a new body. A new journey. I want to tell you that,  you have grown so much! and I am proud of who you have become.

In the future , there will be times when you feel like you don’t deserve all the things that you desire but that would be a lie. Your purpose in this world is to achieve everything that you choose to have and the Universe and I have been working on your purpose even when you are asleep. So, don’t worry. You are going to get there really soon. But right now just rest. it’s time for you to breathe and calm down your senses. Let me take all your thoughts away and heal you with my love. After all, that’s what I am here to do.
