You Must Mine The Gold
There are days when what we feel can’t be trusted. Our emotions rise and fall like the tides — one moment they’re spot on, saving us from something that isn’t meant for us, and the next they lead us into confusion and doubt. When you’re an empathetic person, this inner tug-of-war becomes familiar territory. You learn to walk a fine line between intuition and impulse.
That’s why I try to start each day with purpose — not waiting for perfect feelings but showing up consistently for what I’ve been given to do. Some things unfold smoothly, while others seem to stay just out of reach, evasive and silent. But over time, I’ve learned that even what feels like a loss can be a setup for something greater — a blessing in disguise. Every door that closes might be a redirection toward something better.
“You must mine the gold and discover the diamonds.”
That means looking deeper — beyond appearances, beyond disappointments — to find the wisdom hidden in experience. Some of the most significant insights come when we least expect them, and their release into the world is always a matter of timing.
Timing isn’t everything… unless it is.
Because when the right thing happens at the right time, it changes everything.
What if I hadn’t met certain people when I did? What if I hadn’t applied for opportunities that shaped my path? Life’s timing weaves a mysterious pattern, and wisdom is knowing when to act and when to wait.
Every decision shapes us. Each one is a brushstroke on the canvas of our destiny. And what’s been started will always be completed in its season.
The Council whispers that something is aligning in the coming year — a reason for certain doors to have closed, for retirement to have come when it did. Every change asks for attention, but not every distraction deserves it.
Keep your eye on the prize. Not everything that glitters is an opportunity. Some things are simply noise.
The light ahead is growing brighter. The path will reveal itself step by step. And when it does, you’ll find that everything truly has been working together — every challenge, every choice, every “not yet” — leading you exactly where you belong.
So, breathe, trust, and stay open.
Mine the gold. Discover the diamonds.
The best is still forming — just beyond the next sunrise.
