Today we have chosen to rest. But in reality what happened was healing. We utilized this time to better understand why we were experiencing what we believed to be happening rather than reality. It wasn't because we were experiencing anything dramatic, on the contray. But rather we were experiencing a need to clear out, clean out, and cleanse. As soon as I got up I knew I needed to get rid of stuff that was feeling draining. So we donated over 5 bags of clothes, shoes, and decorations.
We also wanted to take a moment to reflect on particular things, people and/or situations that had occured in our lives to give us deeper understanding. I don't mind sharing with folks so I'm going to give you just one example of what we did.
While doing this type of work we must first take responsibility for what is going on around us as we are the ones creating it. Many people think, "Oh, I create my reality and now I'm going to change that." If it were that easy don't you think we'd all be having the life we want, rather than what we don't want? The people that go around saying, "Well you know you create your own reality", without giving folks the ability or tools necessary to make change are people that have not mastered their own lives. And I pay attention to what this person is reflecting to, this allows me to see what they are creating. This helps us with our discernment.
Back to the example: Have you ever seen the a person that just sits in the corner being quiet and shy only to interact when you engage with them, rather than offering information or a part of themselves when around others? Well, it seems to be a common theme in my life and of course I'm attracted to these kinds of people. Why? Because I'm attracted to myself. It's a part of me that needs and desires healing. And of course I see it as the person that needs this, not me. LOL We all doing this, I'm not special. And the first moment that you think, "Oh, I'm at peace with everything I don't need anything else", you've just bought into ego, the shadow side.
Do you believe that everyone else has the problem but that you are okay? Are you in perfect health? Are you in harmony with all people? Are you able to support yourself with what you are passionate about? Do people receive you and your energy? Do you believe that you are seeing "REALITY"?
So with people that retreat I decided to look at what that was for me. Here's the 7 Steps:
Why does he just sit in the corner looking pitiful and disconnected? This makes me angry that he's so withdrawn. I don't understand how a person that is suppose to be so aware Metaphysically can continue to share a message of depression. I'm gaining frustration and losing patiences.
I realized by this statement how I was doing this to myself. The ego put it in plain site for me. After seeing it I was able to take it and work with it. I received clarity and was able to receive my sign with a rainbow in the sky during a sunny day. It's interesting how when we clear something that we are able to see so much more clearly. This is because this is real.
So I welcome people on this beautiful Saturday to think about the people in your life that piss you off, or feel upset in anyway. Figure out through the 7 Steps how you are doing this.
