Notes from The Universe

This was my note from the Universe on June 2, 2008, which I found this weekend while cleaning out some things (I can't believe I actually still have this email...talk about LETTING GO!!):

        One of the most stringent conditions all angels must meet, other than double-advanced harp playing and skydiving abilities (not necessarily at the same time), is that they must not allow themselves to feel hurt or rejected by the choices made by others, no matter how much they've done for them nor how great their love.


Yeah, WOW.
  The Universe


PS.  Angels are people, too.


I KNOW, right?  This sounded almost impossible to accomplish to me.  I was actually pretty furious when I got this email, shaking my fist at The Universe.
Do you mean to tell me, I thought, that I am supposed to be a doormat?  Is that what LOVE is all about?  That sounds like some stupid drugged-up Stepford Wife thing...


Because prior to this email, one of my Notes From The Universe said just this:
   
    All pain is self-inflicted.


    Yeah, OUCH.


     The Universe


What the yuck?!  


However, when I calmed down and read the two notes together, I had the AH-HA moment.  I get it!  I really get it!  If you can really change your perspective about things, you will realize that 99.9% of the time, it ain't about you.  Sucks kind of for a minute, especially when you're thinking about someone you love and something they did that, in your mind, displays a total lack of mutual respect and/or love.  That person should ALWAYS be thinking of you; in other words, "they don't love me with the same depth of spirit that I love them."  Most likely very true.  If you can grasp this concept, you are probably much more spiritually enlightened than most in your life.


Therein lies the beauty of this:  "ALL PAIN IS SELF-INFLICTED."  


I mean, think about it.  If you can let go of your self-righteous indignation for a minute (which feels REALLY good if you can do it, LET GO), and really be philosophical about it, you will realize that we are each on our own personal journey.  Your interactions with anyone else are just that:  your interactions, your experiences.  So it is with everyone else.  It's all very personal (one of my favorite lines from "Beetlejuice", spoken by the receptionist in the "after life" regarding what happens when you die).


Sounds like a fabulous way to "let go" of negative emotions and energy.  But it's very difficult to stop that knee-jerk reaction of your ego when you feel you've been wronged.  Gotta kick that ego to the curb if you truly want to know peace.  This does not mean you have to let people cross your boundaries, either.  But once anger is out of the equation, your heart can speak to you and guide you in the right direction.


I have found it very difficult to make this a practice as opposed to a concept.  That's why I'm writing this blog, to remind me!  I mean, who doesn't want to be an angel, right?

Letting Go

     




It seems to be one of the hardest things for me to do.  Even when I know I should, that things would be so much better.  I still need my security blanket.  The devil you know is sometimes easier to live with than the devil you don't know.


    And I have known some real devils.  My emotional scars are like the rings inside a tree; the more there are, the bigger and stronger I am.  If you look closely, you will see that the areas of healing around each scar are much bigger than the scar itself.  


     Most of the scars have faded, some never will.  But they only hurt when I look backwards...

    So, I am making a promise to myself to let go of the things (people) that scar me.  Why am I wasting my precious time banging my head against someone's wall over and over always believing things will be different with the next hit?  Simply ridiculous, or, actually, the exact definition of insanity (doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results).  It's what I've done in almost every relationship I've ever had....except the ones that really had potential; those I threw away.  I was just too young to realize that at the time.

     The waning moon is the perfect time for letting go and releasing.  The new moon that follows is the perfect time for seeking clarity and finding answers.  And, best of all, the waxing moon that's fast approaching is the perfect time for new beginnings and new ideas.


     Besides, if you want something new and different, you have to let go of the "same old".


      Ready, set, jump!!!

Good Vibrations

The world, your teachers, parents, mentors and those around you have taught you to tell your story about the WAY IT IS.  After all, that is "reality".

But here is what you must do.  You must begin to tell your story
about the way you want your life to be. Tell your story of the way
you want it to be until you begin to believe the story. (After all,
you believe the story you are telling now as though it were true!)
When you believe your new story, your vibration will shift and the
universe will match your story.  The universe is always matching
your vibrational energy.  Most people don't know they can offer a
vibration that matches what they want.  Instead they believe they
should offer a story about the WAY IT IS, not realizing they are
attracting more of the WAY IT IS.

You can get swept up in the WAY IT IS because the WAY IT IS gets
your attention. The reason for this is all of our physical senses
are designed to help you observe your environment.  What you see
with your eyes is a translation of vibration, what you smell with
your nose is a translation of vibration. What you feel with your
fingertips is a translation of vibration. What hear with your ears
and taste with your tongue is a translation of vibration. You are a
veritable vibrational interpreter.  Realize that the true interpretation of the vibration that is going on within you is translated into emotion. Your emotions are really telling you the story you want to be aware of.

So when you feel negative emotion what your inner guidance is
telling you is you've got chronic thoughts going on, and more
importantly current thoughts in the moment that are not a match to
what you want. And, depending on how strong the negative emotions
are will determine to what extent your thoughts are in alignment with your desire.  Negative emotion is always the indicator.

When you feel ANY negative emotion it is time to pay attention
because you are going in the wrong direction. You are moving AWAY
from your desires. Use this powerful indicator to your advantage
and shift your energy in that moment and start moving TOWARDS
what you desire by changing your story from the WAY IT IS to the
way you want it to be.

Today will bring you a new awareness, a lesson or a manifestation
that you are making progress - IF YOU LOOK FOR IT.  It will
only take a few moments and will AUTOMATICALLY put you in the Flow.

Thanks to my awesome friend Suni for this email.  I have decided to definitely make this part of my daily life.  Ready for positive change and the things it will bring to my life, which has been pretty boring lately....because I've been resting up for the next big thing!  :)
