There’s Really No Down Side

Today as I was opening my mailbox at the apartment complex mail center, I noticed that the mailman looked preoccupied, stressed. He was not in a good mood. He seemed overworked. I have seen him that way many
If at times you wonder if you are really in the New Energy, in a more expanded consciousness, because maybe your body or your life does not seem to reflect it….ask yourself, “Am I still trying to fill up emptiness by expecting someone else to love and appreciate me?”
“How much am I still trying to control circumstances or people?”
You may believe you are still doing that, and maybe you are to a degree, but you also know that you are aware and awake. That those old behaviors are on their way out, if they are not already gone altogether.
You have gone through profound changes on the inner levels, that most humans are not anywhere ready to experience.
You are establishing a relationship with your Divine Self and soul and you know in your core that no other relationship can ever replace that one. You know the relationship with your eternal self is your most important relationship.
That truth alone separates you from the rest of humanity at this time.
The rest of humanity is still looking outside themselves to be fulfilled, whether it’s in a relationship, or a career, or any number of accomplishments. They are living life from the outside in, trying to extract energies from others, from activities and achievements. They are still playing out their galactic issues through relationships and circumstances. And for them that is absolutely appropriate.
We may still have some residue of that happening in our lives, but for the most part we have moved beyond the family and relationship drama. And beyond seeking love outside our own selves.
We are poised for more than just living another human life, not that we ever were living just another human life. But as we recognize who we really are, we can’t fit into the old patterns any more.
We find that straddling the fence becomes increasingly intolerable. We’re in or we’re out.
A LITTLE SPIRIT GOES A LONG WAY
When we first opened up the door and invited spirit into our house, we weren’t quite sure what to expect. Even a little bit of light coming in has a way of turning things upside down, doesn’t it?
But just as there’s the eye of the hurricane we also have that center point where we can seek refuge and calm, and just watch as the winds move out old stuck energies.
Like with a hurricane or storm, there is a major clearing happening. Yet so many now are concerned that the storms are never ending…and if there is a reprieve then the boredom sets in. Things feel stuck.
And that is a good time to remind ourselves of how far we have come in feeling that inner fulfillment. Now, it’s going to feel differently than the old type of outer directed fulfillment, where we derived passion from others, from relationships, from projects and from activities. We may still be in the process of developing it, but we are more in tune with our soul than ever before.
And the fears, concerns, and the boredom are all symptoms of being more in tune with ourselves. Just old energy that will not sustain like it did before.
So it’s good to remind ourselves that feeling less connected to this world is a GOOD thing. Because it means we are leaving behind all the unhealthy connections, physically and emotionally. And we are in the process of reconnecting with our Divine Self, and our soul. This is what we wanted, and it’s a relationship that needs some time to build, between human and soul, between soul and human. It’s new for both.
Our soul has never been this intimately connected with the human personality on a full time basis. And the human with its limited mind and ancestral biology has never allowed this close a connection with its Divine nature.
Can you imagine a more healthy relationship? One in which there is developing a mutual love and respect? A partnership in which there is no trying, forcing, manipulating, or feeding off the other? It’s a love based in an eternal truth…that our true self is eternal, and is already fulfilled. So it stand to reason that the more we allow and invite that part of us into our house, the more life begins to reflect that fulfillment back to us.
Although it may feel at times like our life is a mess, there’s really no down side.
