This is an oldie but a goodie, originally posted on 1/22/21.
I always have things I want to talk to “YOU” about, but they often get stuffed down inside for a “better” time.
There’s no better time, and I’m tired of stuffing it all down. So here goes!
What the hell are we doing here on this planet anyway? What is our purpose, what is the end game. Do you really think we are here to just survive until our 80 or 90 something birthday and then just LEAVE? Then what? Do we come back? Will we find our family and friends again?
I refuse to believe that that’s all that there is, and I want you to know that there is more. Here’s what I believe:
We make a plan at the beginning of “time”. We map out our lives and decide what experiences to have and what lessons to learn, we choose our parents, and we arrive here ready to get shit done. We’ve signed contracts, we are bound by vows (which we can remove through energy healing if they are harmful and dont’ serve us)
Yes, we sign up for the heartache, the betrayal, the loss, the struggle, the love, the light, the fun, the discovery and all of the other good things.
We live, we love, we have our hearts broken, we learn lessons, we heal ancestral wounds, we clear our karmic debt. Hopefully we also put an end to senseless generational patterns, and we take a deep introspective look at our shadows, gathering them up to our chests and loving ourselves “even though”.
Or maybe we do none of those things? Maybe we go through the motions, buy the groceries, eat the lasagna for sunday dinner, get up on monday and do it all over again. We get sick, we heal, we go to work, we go to weddings and funerals, we bear children and try to raise them up as best we can, we bump around through this lifetime without any real sense of purpose or what our means are to the end.
The latter is what I have been doing. I got a late start. I was born in 1975 and I didn’t really begin to do this work until the early 2000s. Here I am in the 21st year of that decade and really beginning to dive deep into what’s left for me to do before I move forward to my next experience.
I believe that we do all of this work, so that when the end of life is upon us, we don’t have to re enter into some painful existence and repeat all of the same stuff all over again. I think the end game is CHOICE. Where do I want to go, who do I want to be? How do I want my next experience to play out?
So on my way to “the end” I am digging deep into my shadows, I’m loving myself despite the shadows. I’m healing the things I can heal. I’m hoping to arrive at the doorway out of this life with a feather heart. I may have many more lifetimes to go before I get to “go to heaven”, but I do hope that I”Ill have fewer and fewer painful lessons to learn as I go.
My intention with this post was not doom and gloom. I just think that if more people were to take a look at their purpose, and their existence, and dig into themselves a little bit, this planet would do a lot of healing, and we’d do it in a hurry. We can all help each other to rise, to ascend, and to live better lives, to love more, live more, be happier, be compassionate, be caring, be cognizant of your neighbors needs, be aware of what’s going on around you.
It’s hard work and sometimes it’s messy, but I promise it won’t break you. Dip your toe into these waters. I will be here holding space for you, and holding your hand as well if that’s what you need.
Have a beautiful day.
