Other people are who they are. You can’t change them. The challenge is to accept them as they are and not try to make them otherwise to suit you. This is a time to look at how you attempt to mold people to fit your view of how they should be so you can remain in the relationship and avoid discomfort. What if who they are, and whatever is happening between you and them in this situation, is perfect from the perspective of higher mind and soul?
What is it your heart truly desires? What do you perceive is missing in your life? In order to find the answers, you must look inside your heart. You already know this but have been reluctant to look because a part of you fears what your heart is trying to tell you. The only way forward is to face your fear. Something in your life is not working out as you would have liked and it’s not going to get any better unless you have the courage to face it.
Each time we are hurt and allow the hurt to pass through us without understanding and integration we accumulate an unwanted burden. This keeps us chained to the very thing we need to heal: the pain, the memories, the echoes of resentments, and the arguments that we rehearse over and over. Now is the time for mending rifts, healing wounds, and letting go of the old hurts in order to reclaim your power. Now is the time to forgive, to release, to make peace, and to make amends to others. Set yourself free.
It may appear that you are going backward, the truth is that you are standing at a higher level looking down into your circumstances. You will learn something, do something better, and break a cycle set up in the past. You actually have a bird’s eye view of your initial footprints and can access the wisdom and lessons learned.
Are you wondering? How did I get here again? Does something feel familiar right now in your dynamics with others? Maybe a little too familiar? Don’t be surprised that you’ve found yourself repeating an old story with the same sort of person, who may not look similar but who attract you because of your easy acquaintance with his or her qualities.
You believe that you are in a situation that you cannot free yourself from; afraid to let go and walk away because of a deep sense of duty, commitment or guilt. Perhaps you feel that you’ll hurt or disappoint someone if you let go. Whatever the reason, you feel you have no choice but to stay where you are. The emotional attachment is great and the fear may be a bit overwhelming. The message is clear you are being encouraged to face your fears. Do not listen to that fearful voice any longer.
Affirmation: I am free from all negative attachments, I look beyond my fears, I deserve to be happy.
