This is a time of chaos, a time when people are seeking peace and calm within and around their lives and as many do… we struggle to find it because the world seems upside down at the moment. It is a very difficult time to try to stay positive, to put on that smiling face for many people seem to have lost their compassion and humanity towards life itself.
Even those of us that walk as teachers, story tellers, healers, people that are connected to “Spirit”, Seers and more, are experiencing difficult times trying to find balance in order to wade through all the negative clutter that the Universe is containing at the moment. Even people who do not do this for a living are experiencing emotions that they can’t quite put their finger tips on. So what do we do? How do we all get through it?
We start by breathing and then honoring our own needs and space as priority and no it is not selfish it is necessary. However as we move to this mode, we must also remember to check our ego’s aside and remember that “WE” can not control anything/anyone but our own actions and reactions to things in our lives. “WE” should also remember to not lay our personal garbage at others feet, it is our own responsibility to process it, not to blame and leave it at other peoples doorsteps. It is our place to be a grown up and own what is ours, good bad and indifferent.
Once we understand this we can move to the answer of it all… releasing our pain, anger and anxieties with a deep meaningful cleansing breath and then releasing it. Then as we take another deep breath allow the Love that surrounds each of us to tear the walls of anger, hate, bigotry and ego down so that all we once again hold in our hearts is Compassion and love for others and life itself. We must return to the Sacred and hold it as our banner for our way of life. We look to the world and send that understanding and love back out into it and continue to walk our own paths… in peace and calm.
So many today are walking and saying they are Teachers and Healers, yet they have no forgiveness for others or the world as they move forward. They have embraced ego and somewhere on the way they forgot they are not judge and jury for anyone’s actions, that perhaps their perspective has been warped by their own insecurities and have lost the point that we are supposed to set examples in order to truly walk that path we are on and must learn to not only forgive others but to love them with all the imperfect flaws that we are each born with. So many are assisting the worlds chaos, and yet if they would stop for a brief moment and look at the patterns that are in place they would see that the common denominator in every situation is how they choose to respond or handle situations. That is a hard slap to the ego to truly be able to see and move through it in order to once again be balanced and healthy in mind, body and spirit. But for each and every one of us at some time in our life …we all need to do just that.
So it’s time… take a deep breath and then release it. Allow the Sacred to shine into your Soul so that in turn it may once again light a path for others to see. Lead through example, but most of all lead with Compassion and Love. Blessings to You All!
