September 2012 ~ The Pleasure and Pain of Power
Sep 1, 2012
One of the most challenging places to be in our lives is not to be in the past or the future but to live in the present moment. So much of our time is spent reflecting on past events, analyzing our short falls and looking for what we claim we do not want to have happen.
It seems to be easier to see the obvious obstructions when we’re with a friend listening to their stories and the attached dramas as to why they are where they are when it isn’t where they had hoped to be. The more I listen to my clients during a call demands me to listen to the words that are key phrases, as it were, to the Universe. Since I offer my readings over the telephone this offers my clients some comfort in remaining in their homes or a comfortable place to share their most intimate souls with me. And since I am not distracted by their physical bodies I can sense the dawning of a smile or a tear and hear the release in a sigh or the silence of a pause I am even more present to listen to their words and their placements and tune into the tones of their intentions.
Why does it matter what we say, you might wonder, as we’re thinking these thoughts anyway? What I am learning (and striving to apply and practice in my own life) is that our emotions are what propels our thoughts into action and may even be the cause of the thought to begin the process. We sometimes tend to blend our emotional upheavals with our twisted words when we are threatened by our insecurities, past failures and traumas or faced with our human weaknesses. We’re so afraid to let go of what we know and release the connection to our pasts as if we’re going to diminish its’ value to ourselves or others. Some of us live in victimization mode or on auto pilot as we scramble to confuse our hearts from the pain as well as our minds from the judgments. It’s as if we choose not to let go of the chains that harness our very being and reason to live and to love. Is it easier to avoid the pain by choosing to utilize our dodge ball tactics and to endure the “suffering” or do we choose to empower ourselves by believing in and connecting to our internal power. ..
What is this power and how do we begin to access it in our daily lives? I think the simpler we keep the process the less time we will spend contemplating every possible avenue of what we have been denied and denying ourselves since our births. When we reduce the attachments to drama energies in our perception and reception of life we begin to take back our projections of “power” from the people and things around us. Then, as we pursue our thoughts and make conscious choices that resonate with our hearts and souls we take those baby steps into a new world that was once foreign to us seemingly unattainable because of the viruses that infected our lives. And, as we continue to make these decisions one step at a time, the process may seem to be a little foreign to us or perhaps we feel disconnected because we are not connecting with these dramatic energies that can deceive us from our truths.
Just take it moment by moment in key areas of your life and take hold of the belief that you can control your perception of your reality by what you choose to feed into your heart, mind, soul and life experiences. As you release yourself from the triggers that once gauged your volume of success or failure or of being worthy of being loved or condemned to feeling unloved you may begin to sense changes in and around you. Not only will your reactions be affected but your own experiences will evolve by shedding former skins of fear and growing new appreciation for a peace that will gradually descend upon you.
Some people use drama to flavor their lives while others allow it to consume not only their own but others lives, as well. Some people call this love. Some people call it fun. Some people call it abusive. If you are unable to control your dramas in your life and you feel addicted to the power you get from this pain you deliver there may be a tendency towards a sadistic/masochistic pleasure for this need for more.
More what? That is a question only you can answer truthfully when you allow the answer to come from within yourself and not from anywhere or anyone else.
