As one heals the SELF

 Fighting the wind bends you...
... in a way that
... you grow differently than other people.

~Artist Irina Karkabi

As one heals the SELF… in turn you DO in fact heal the world.

Reprogramming is easy to read about… and understand the information presented…

… yet the psyche only interferes out of SELF preservation.

That is actually a good thing… if the ego didn't get in the way… what would that make us?

Sheep blindly following anything that is presented.

Accept that your ego is only looking out for your best interest.

It will eventually become quiet with the realization that the new programming is not only safe…

… it is also sound in perspective and understanding.

All that has crossed our path on our journey is something that is worth looking at… for it all exists.

Everything has its place.

Remember that our perception of a thing may at first be negative… until we are able to see…

… ALL of what has been place in our path.

Such as a raging forest fire seems to have destroyed all the life in its wake.

Yet, when the fires die and smoke diminishes… the rains fall… and the sun shines down on the charred remains…

… then you will begin to see the “NEW LIFE” breaking through the blackened earth.

If you are having trouble with the shadow… don't push it away… let it be… study it…

… there is a reason why it is there… it has its place in your healing.

We can all use help that comes our way.

I am just paying it forward. It takes a village...
