Tonight I sat down with my guide, I prayed for him and talked to him. Then I spent the next half an hour getting upset with him. You see he had told me some things which I didn't want to hear and to my shame i'm not always the best at taking bad news. I wish this is the first something like this has happened but its not, its not a frequent occurrence but it is something that happens occasionally.

But the thing is as I got upset, prayed for a different outcome and generally acted like a bit of a dick, my heart began to clear. Feelings poured out of me that had been building up for weeks; my frustration, loneliness and heartache boiled to the surface and my guide took all those feelings and left me cleansed of them. He told me to have hope, that my spirits would guide me and he lifted up my heart. In short he took all my pain, bitterness and anger and in its place he left me feeling peaceful and hopeful once again.

And for that I'm truly grateful to him, because my guide and my spirits aren't just there for me when things are going well. They are also there for me when I'm in a bad mood, or sad or angry or depressed. They help to pick me up when I fall down and they help to steer my course when i'm heading in the wrong direction.
