As I was finishing up the final touches to our book a thought occurred to me. Now listen to this.
When an incident occurs with another person, everyone in contact with that said person can gain from processing the situation the person is having.
I realized this at 3am this morning as I was sitting there thinking about my granddaughter, who was hurt at school yesterday. Her mother, my daughter, sent me a pic text showing me the wound. At first I was just stunned to see such a mark on her. I needed to hear my daughter out while she was trying to make sense of it all.
It wasn't until some minutes later I called her back letting her know the child is reflecting something for someone. She said, "Oh, yeah...we already know what it is and we're working on it now." Of course this was wonderful because they were able to be calm within this situation and allow it to be for their highest good, rather than screaming and reacting instead of responding.
But then it occurred to me, as I said earlier, that this also was a message for me. Why? Because I bought into the illusion that she was being hurt. And my illusion even goes further by saying, "She's always getting hurt." Of course none of us want to see anyone in pain but we must keep a position of compassion. This allows for the healing to occur from within to out.
It broke my heart to think that I might have created the situation of my granddaughter getting hurt, but then I heard this gentle voice letting me know that she is fine and to process it to see what my real fear is. So here goes.
Ego: I don't ever want my granddaughter to experience pain and when she does this makes me so angry and hurt. Why can't we protect our young and just allow them to stay innocent the rest of their lives. I gain fear while losing sleep.
Spirit: I always experience joy and this feels happy and joyful. Because I am protected like the young I allow myself to stay innocent within my life with love while awake.
It is through this "awake" state that allows me to see the world as a mirror and to understand that my granddaughter is me. With this said, she is trying to show me that I feel threatened in this world and belief that I can be hurt. But spirit is always there protecting and loving us. Allowing us to experience whatever we desire knowing that everything is going to be okay. So I had to think about what I felt threatened about. To do this I had to go back to where she got hurt and that was at school, someone pushed her, a bully at school. She was pushed on some steps, but she didn't want anyone to get upset.
I understood by looking at it all this way that I might be feeling some insecurity regarding my new book. Because she fell on the steps I feel this is reflecting my fears that people are not going to follow through on the steps. Because she was pushed, I feel that maybe I am allowing my fear to hold me back and that I just need to release it all and whatever is suppose to happen will happen. Because she didn't want anyone to get upset, this is soooo me. I don't want people to be upset with the process but to enjoy it each and everyday easily.
Once I was able to see the deeper meaning, in my minds eye, I saw my granddaughter smiling at me and said, "I am happy to be of service to you." I wanted to cry because this tiny child, on a spiritual level, was of total service to all of us that were affected by her little incident. Thank you Cad.
My New Belief:
I am patient and understanding with the 7-Steps and allow love to appear and allow myself to grow while experiencing happiness. Everyone around me is joyful, this allows me to be of service in the highest love and light.
Enjoy!
