World View Perspective: Releasing from our Role Attachments for Greater Growth

As much as we love the people in our lives, as much history as we have with them or as much as we have in common, those energetic attachments can hold us back as well as inhibit their growth, expansion and development. 

We most likely aren't aware of these aspects of bondage. They are like energetic chords that might be keeping us too attached to others and those attachments may be hurting us or inhibiting our growth. They are subconscious or unconscious but we can often feel their tug.

If you imagine having a younger sibling, who you have always felt responsible for, and they develop a drinking problem, you might inadvertently step in to rescue them from their addiction.  Maybe they are about to lose their house, their marriage, their job and because you feel responsible, you are suddenly helping too much.  Now, without your awareness, your deep attachment to them is negatively affecting your life and hurting what you have built up for your family and survival.  The old saying, 'Cut bait' means it is time to take action for a better outcome.  Letting an old attachment go doesn't mean you can't still love the people or person, it just means that emotionally and personally, that attachment is now hurting you.  

Imagine attending a high school reunion some 30 years later.  You show up as the new you, happy to see your old classmates. You have grown, developed more fully and found a career no one imagined for you yet from the minute you arrive, they call you by your old nickname, tease you about who you were in high school and remind you of all that went wrong.  The old attachment to this group of people may be showing you, you have outgrown that old identification of yourself but they haven't.  Yes, they may still matter to you and you want to keep seeing them but you can also release this age old attachment to them that is now harmful, hurtful and outdated.  When we know it is time to do this, we are usually receiving a signal from within, saying that new growth is coming in so the old must naturally begin to go.  Definitely time to, at least, strongly release its grip!

When we imagine a rope, holding us to another person, go into that feeling and see how it makes you feel.  Does it feel too tight, does it feel too negative, does it make you feel like a much smaller idea of you? Does it make you feel unseen, unheard or diminished in some way?  If any of this rings true, it is quite likely, you are too attached to them or they are too attached to you!  So, imagine then, you are standing near this person or people with this rope, tightening you to them.  Imagine this rope becoming lighter and brighter and much more flexible.  Speak energetically into the person's or people's heart that you love them in your heart of hearts but you are now releasing your old attachment or attachments to them.  You trust them to find they own way, their own strength and they own positive way forward as you do the same.  Imagine your self removing the now flexible rope (energetic chord) and walking away from that attachment into a new and renewed sense of self.  Any time, that person or those people come to mind, just send them LOVE and LIGHT and continue TRUSTING YOURSELF!

Playing roles or rules out for others is very human and very necessary for our growth and development, usually starting with family and close friends.  Yet, when we are naturally evolving, shifting, changing and adapting to newer aspects of our self's growing CONSCIOUSNESS and AWARENESS, sometimes those old roles become way too tight.  More open room must then be created so we can expand into who we are becoming.  Necessary and needed SOUL GROWTH can be the impetus to release from where and who we have been so the new space or place can be created for us to step into.  AND, THAT NEW GROWTH AND EXPANSION IS GOOD!!

World View Perspective: Love and forgiveness can move mountains

When we can sincerely say, "Please help me to forgive it all, love it all and thank you for it all,", miracles can happen.  We are here to learn to discern, grow, keep on developing and to expand our thinking.  What holds us back the most is fear of the past reoccurring and consequently, we hold onto the memory of the past so tightly, we cannot easily or naturally move forward.  We effectively stay stuck in the muck instead of being grateful we are still alive and able to move on.  The past was simply an event, an experience, a point of growth, understanding, perhaps confusion or a disappointment.  Yet, when we actively, consciously love it, forgive it and go beyond it, we change our memory of it and, through gratitude and lessons learned, we continue to move forward in our lives.  Our collected and accrued fear lives on in our mental, emotional and physical planes and it continues to whisper the stored memory of pain to us, as if it is still real and curre...

World View Perspective: Grace is within our very cells

When we think about Grace, it is easy to just think about our Heart, Love or prayers.  Yet, the state of a living Loving Grace also lives in our very cells.  It is at the core of us who we really are within.  It is a Pure Energy that is our Being Self.  As such, we can have a relationship and communicate with the Living Grace within.  Collaborating with our inner state of Grace allows us to feel Grace and heal with Grace. One way to see the effects of an inner relationship with Grace is like having a pond that needs an occasional cleaning.  If we can imagine having a pure white chalk like tablet marked, 'GRACE' that cleanses and purifies water when our ponds become too cloudy, toxic, darkened or soiled.  All we simply have to do is drop in the 'GRACE' tablet and let it work at the right pace to clean out the water until it is clear and fresh again.  See the tablet drop all the way to the bottom and dissolve away all that i...
