On turning people out of your life…

November 20, 2009 Leave a comment

You’ve had an argument with someone. A person has done a wrong to you. You’ve been lied to. You’ve been cheated in some way. Or, you’ve been turned out of someones life for doing any one or all of these things. This is the focus today. Remember, you yourself have been turned away, you’ve done a wrong to someone, you’ve told a lie, you’ve cheated someone, and you’ve had arguments that led to losing a friend or family member. You have turned your back on someone dear to you, probably because your pride was hurt more than anything else. We all have, come on…get real with yourself.

People aren’t ‘things’ to be tossed out like garbage when they no longer serve our purpose. Human beings are vulnerable to making mistakes, making bad choices and making you mad at some point. Why risk losing a person in your life who could be the best friend you eve had, over something you yourself would want to be forgiven for?

Giving someone the cold shoulder, ignoring them and turning them out of your life teaches people to be mistrustful and to be afraid of you. Withholding your love is always a bad idea and is no more than bullying. People you are close to should never feel the threat of losing your love. If you choose to use love as a weapon you are merely a bully who wants everything your way, and this just cannot be in a connection between people, whether friends, couples, sisters, etc. In any relationship there are always at least 2 people, and both must learn to be tolerant, forgiving and not bully each other or use the withholding of love as a way to get what each wants. It causes lifelong harm and doing that will surely bring some pretty bad karma, later on.

Good vs.

good vs badYou have the opportunity to choose to be good. To be a good person, deep down with all the bitterness of past hurts and the pains of living life and learning lessons…you still have the opportunity to not let those things creep in to your heart and fester there. You can choose good and choose not to have bad. You can choose to only live in a positive and rightly way and change your karmic outlook forever, by letting go of the false security of bitterness. Evil, bad, wrong…these are all choices. You can even choose not to acknowledge evil, bad and wrong by turning away from them. Making a conscious effort to do the right thing, help someone else, make a good choice, be unselfish, do random acts of kindness, improve the well being of another, give selflessly, and take good care instead of being uncaring are all things we have access to each and every day. Take advantage of these things and make up your own ‘good’ things and you will reap great rewards for it. Doing the right thing is a choice and living a good life is a choice. Your past does not dictate who you are and cannot force you to be a mean, spiteful, hurtful or vengeful person. You were not born with a mean streak, you didn’t turn bitter because of your past, your childhood did not mold you in to a miserable person. You can make a different choice at any time.

You know exactly why you are getting this little message today and it really is your choice.

Message #1

There’s a betrayal trend in the past few days that should be brought to your attention:

Deny the urge to betray yourself for the good of another

I just loved this image when I came across it. It made me think of all the times that I denied myself and what I wanted or knew to be right, for the sake of ‘saving’ someone else. Even if I was doing it for ‘right’ reasons, didn’t make it right. Why? Because denial of oneself is the highest betrayal there is. There are not enough rationalizations in the Universe to justify denying oneself for the sake of another. If you choose another persons priorities over your own, you are not being generous or giving and you are not making a generous sacrifice for which you will be rewarded later. You are betraying yourself. Your truth is the only truth there is. The ‘other’ will certainly not betray themselves for you, again that would still be a betrayal. When you are faced with the dilemma of putting someone else’s needs, wants or desires before your own…the best plan of action is to stick with what you know…yourself. DO NOT CHOOSE TO BETRAY YOURSELF! And as a side note to confuse you even further: don’t mistake self betrayal for selfishness!

You can be Yin or you can be Yang, it's all up to youMessage #2:

You must stop looking to the past to solve the issues of the future. Right now there are frustrations and obstacles in your life that make you angry or upset or frustrated. There are things that don’t go as planned and people who confuse you. If you use the same tactics and actions that you’ve always used to try to ‘fix’ things or make them better, you are going against the flow of your life. Don’t swim against the currents, let them take you where you’re supposed to be.

You are walking along on a clear and easy path and all of a sudden you come across a gate with a sign that reads: “Do not enter,” and you enter it anyway…then the path becomes treacherous and rocky and dangerous…yet you still keep going…this is where you are now. In the big middle of a dangerous path that you were told not to go down. You missed the sign is all. And you missed it because in the past when you had come to the same fork in the road or gate that said “keep out,” you did the same thing (walked right through it or went the wrong direction by misreading the signs) and got the same results.

The good news is that you can fix it all. When you really open your eyes to the truth, your truth, you will see that you must take a different action. You must make a different choice. You must embrace your true nature and that may take a little backtracking (not to be mistaken for doing the same things you’ve done in the past).

Go back to the source of each unhappiness or issue and look at it as if you are seeing it for the first time. Now make a different choice in order to restore balance. Make the choice to be happy and take that path this time. It may not be the easiest or prettiest path but you must undo what you’ve done this time. Honor yourself and the life you have by choosing a better happiness. Make the MOST of what you have to work with, don’t try to force something new that you don’t have. This is balance.

You know exactly why you are reading this and you do know at least where to start so what are you waiting for?

 

All a part of the plan

The Master PlanToday things will look random and scattered, but don’t let appearances fool you. There’s a master plan at work as always. Everything happens in the exact order and manner they are supposed to. Open your eyes, including your third eye…you may not see the Wizard behind the curtain but you will certainly see His intentions.  Making strategic moves on the chess board of life is not your directive in this. Yours is to look, listen and see the design. When you do this you will see where and how you fit in and curiously enough…that you are the star of a very important event. The trouble comes when you begin to think you are overly important in this design. Remember, each piece, each person, each mundane task, they are all just as important to this particular day as you are. In a  Master Plan, each element has it’s own perspective, directive, role and construct. If you try to take away the importance of any one element, you will lose the Magic and the Wizard will surely turn the tables on you!
