I realize it is most commonly stated that we should be gentle with ourselves but I prefer the idea of being gentle with my soul. I feel that in choosing that path one inevitably will find oneself being gentle with all aspects of themselves because the root of that gentleness is deeper then self.
How many times in this life and living can we find ourselves in a place of waiting or the silence between the birthing of new circumstances and situations? Can how we respond to these moments assist us in shifting the end results of these doldrum type energies at times? These are a few of the questions I ask myself as I sit wrestling with internal dialogues of greater issues.
I do know this much, that to raise my vibration always feels better and I always have access to the choice to do this. I can allow myself, as we all can to sit in a mentally frozen state of all of the fears and insecurities that I can muster. Let me tell you, I am a fast thinker so I can muster a formidable list in very little time if I allow myself the mental junk food.
Alas as with real life junk food the reprieve from doing this is ever temporary, fleeting and comes with the cost of having to sweat the proverbial calories off. Can you say Karma? Not to mention it’s also nothing compared to how I can feel if I put the effort into shifting my perspective and energies to a higher vibration. Hmm on that note I wonder if it makes my spiritual butt look big just like gorging a box of donuts would make my physical butt look. That’s a thought worthy of a sassy dancing round of “Fat bottomed girls” I’d say.
All jokes aside though I feel a spiritual hangover if I choose to allow lower vibrations to affect me for any length of time. I start to feel sluggish and slow and my sassiness becomes epic as my ego rules the airwaves of my thoughts. It sure can be funny but it isn’t something I’d call pretty really.
I’ve lived through a great deal in this life and no matter who did what to me or why they did it, the fact is ever present that if I allow the actions of others to paralyze me then noone wins and I am only left with more “work” at the end of the day as I have to now find my way back to my previous high vibing state and beam a smile out to all creation. Noone will come to “save” your heart if it is shattered. I’m not saying that to be cruel either. The fact of the matter is that noone will do it because they are unqualified to do it. They don’t know your heart like you do. Only you know your heart and thusly only you know precisely what it is that your heart is calling for or needing at any given moment.
Even in the depths of deep despair one can find a light. One can find a hope and a peace and it resides within each and every single one of us. We are never removed from this essence of loving support and care. We are never forsaken upon our journeys. Even in the darkest nights of our soul there is a light. It shines within your heart and once you notice it, then it grows brighter and brighter each and every single time you choose to allow it to shine upon yourself and your lives until one day it may shine so brightly that it may not only light your own soul but that it may be so bright and pure that you may be so blessed as to light the path for others who are only just now noticing that same spark within their own heart.
Now that is what I call some healing…
I love you all. Truly.
