What We Can't Resist

There is a fire in me this morning, you might say it's a creative force. I'm listening to a Heart song called 'These Dreams,' and the line 'I need to hide away...there's something out there I can't resist' is playing on repeat in my head. What is it we can't resist?

I said recently, some are calling these times a tomb. This is a reaction to chaos - there is destruction wherever you care to look. Others would cover their eyes and ears, find what solace and release they can in their idea of love. Any idea borne of need is fear in sheep's clothing. The need to run is understandable and overwhelming.

The image depicted is strong, symbolic and expresses what we can't resist - truth. It's the face of the Hindu Goddess Kali; in essence truth and destruction manifest. Issac Newton's Third Law of Motion describes that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Kali (which you may see as an energetic force) rises as a reaction to meet circumstances much like our current ones. It is inevitable. She is the energetic force that equalises an imbalance.

Deep in the symbolism that is Kali lies another truth, she is that within us which is fearless. This is love. We cannot resist. There is tremendous relief, a soul sigh of release, within destruction. Destruction and creation, they are one. You see, nothing is ever lost or even found – it just is.
