The Grand Game
Jul 29, 2024Your life matters. You don’t come from nowhere. That’s a ridiculous notion.
Then again, common sense isn’t all that common, is it?
Try this: lie on the grass, look up, and watch the sky for five minutes. It’s the most glorious masterpiece ever painted. If you genuinely take in how beautiful it is, it will give you chills and ideas.
Try this, too: look into the eyes of the people you love or the eyes of a beloved pet. Do you think they are an accident?
I call bullshit.
We are part of the grandest of all divine designs, and you will continue to waste your life if you do not overstand the game. When you wake up to who you are in this game of life, it’s game over, and I promise you will claim victory. But how can you claim victory if you don’t even know who you are? You are filled with residual value you know nothing about and, therefore, don’t value it. Others do, and that’s why some feel they are being used.
Why are you playing the game of life?
What makes it worth playing?
Surely you know that your life, your fate,
it wasn’t meant for you to be born here on Earth just to exist and survive?
Two games intertwine to make up the “Grand Game.” The Soul Game and the Game of Life.
Your Soul Game is your inner game. Its primary goal is to align with your Soul and purpose. How do you do this? By creating space for grace and learning to master your energy, aka your life force, which will enable you to “win” in the Game of Life.
The Game Board of Life
While we orchestrate our own lives, cultivating and conducting our energy, we also play the game of life on a gameboard called “The World.” This is the game you play in the physical world with your physical body as the main character. You maneuver life's challenges to reach your physical world goals.
Unlike our Soul Game, which we have some mastery over, this game board is external and poses unique challenges. From societal norms to family expectations and from country boundaries to occupational barriers, this board presents its own set of challenges.
Think of it as a board game with specific rules, levels, and constraints, like boundaries of countries, societal norms, job constraints, family expectations, and more. This board isn’t something we, as Souls, have created. Instead, it's a given, an external framework we're thrust into, and these barriers can often seem insurmountable.
We are playing a game we didn't design, but we must all navigate it, even when it feels like pieces have been moved by unseen hands. For you to master these external forces and win in the Game of Life, you must first master your Soul Game.
