What’s Unfolding Within Me Has Its Own Timing
Soul Truth No. 6 - What’s unfolding within me has it’s own timing, it’s own shape, it’s own story.
There is a rhythm to becoming that doesn’t ask us to hurry.
It doesn’t measure us against the pace of the world.
It simply waits, steady as a heartbeat, sure as a tide.
“What’s unfolding within me has its own timing, its own shape, its own story.”
This Soul Truth is a balm in a culture that whispers urgency and shouts “not enough.” It invites us into a gentler rhythm, one that honors the slow unfurling of a story that cannot be rushed.
The Gentle Unfolding
Unfolding is never forced. A flower doesn’t bloom because we demand it. A river doesn’t carve its path overnight. The soul, too, has its seasons. Some are visible, bursting with color and growth. Others are hidden, like winter roots, doing their quiet work underground.
When we trust this rhythm, we release the grip of perfection. We loosen the pressure to arrive polished or complete. We begin to see our story as sacred—not because it is finished, but because it is becoming.
The Sacred Pause
This truth also reminds us of the holiness of pause. That moment between inhale and exhale. The silence before the word takes shape. The waiting that allows us to gather strength, clarity, and courage.
It is in these pauses that our deepest becoming roots itself. Not wasted time, not delay—but the spaciousness where what is true takes form.
A Reminder for the Soul
If you’ve ever wondered if you’re behind, if your dreams are too slow to arrive, if your becoming has somehow missed its mark—hear this:
Your becoming is not behind.
What’s inside you is wise enough to take its time.
You are not late to your own story.
You are right on time for the life that is yours to live.
An Invitation
So today, perhaps, you might soften into this Soul Truth. Breathe with it. Let it remind you that the unfolding of your life is not a race, but a rhythm. Not a performance, but a story that knows exactly how to write itself, in its own timing, its own shape, its own way.
