We are The Light balanced out with darkness. We need to embrace the dark side of ourselves in order for our light to shine.
How do we embrace our darkness?
We embrace our darkness with Self-Care!
Through self-care we allow our creativity to spark within us. It allows us to embrace what we once felt “ugly” about. We turn that “ugly” into something beautiful because we understand that the “ugly” we feel was imposed upon us from outside forces and begin to innerstand that our “ugly” isn’t that ugly after all. Self care allows us to bring forth our authenticity. We can detach from possessions, becoming more attached to our inner being. We accept who we are in the moment, reflect on who we are not, and begin to bridge the gap into acknowledging who we are becoming. Self care introduces us to our Higher Self.
As we turn towards shining the light on our own inner beauty, the beauty that we feel on the inside begins to show on the outside. Maintaining our outer beauty comes with a higher level of commitment. We have to responsibly maintain the ability to keep our own light shining, while being thrown obstacles from the world that attempts to take us away from our light. This higher level of commitment takes inner strength and courage. We build that strength and courage by believing in ourselves and our knowing that we can extend our light to others with hopes of them following our footsteps of doing what is necessary to maintain the light being passed their way. However, before we go out on a limb to extend our light to others we have to make sure that we do not do that prematurely.
As we move towards our self we realize how valuable we are. But, before we understand our own value we must know that others can see and witness our value before we can begin to understand it or recognize it ourselves. There’s a saying that goes ” we begin to face reality before we knew we were creating reality”. What does that mean?
As we gain access to worldly possessions we automatically feel that we have enough to share with others. Before we even thoroughly enjoy what we possess, We begin to share with others. We do so before we know the path we are supposed to be on as individuals, and also before knowing the story behind the person we are extending help to. We have to thoroughly assess the situation before we extend help because we never know whether The Most High is doing a work in their lives that is needed for their soul to grow. That may be something that the help in which we can offer can interfere with. If we extend that help we take away from the lesson they need to learn. More importantly what they were going through and the lesson they needed to learn can vicariously be exchanged over to you because you gave them the solution without helping them understand and overcoming their own problem. Now you both have to face the consequences of the Universe. Not only does the Universe have to wait to do the necessary work with that person, but also the Universe has to do a work within you that allows you to notice when and when not, who and who not to extend help to.
Why is this understanding necessary?
When moving towards self care we must learn Self Accountability, and Self Responsibility.
Self Accountability means we own up to our own actions.
Self Responsibility means we own up to how we affect or have effected the lives of others.
We learn to detach our lives from everyone else’s life. We learn to detach ourselves from possessions. Attaching ourselves to the possessions we own can become dangerous because it places us in what I call the “mine syndrome”. That is when people believe that everything belongs to them. (“That’s Mine”, they say). Everything that gets placed in their possession belongs to them. First we must understand that NOTHING OF THIS WORLD BELONGS TO US. As we attach ourselves to possessions that “mine syndrome” kicks in and has us believing that we can own other human beings the same way that we own our possessions. There’s no separation between the two. That is when confusion, dictatorship, slavery, stagnation, and other dark attributes begin to surface. Our True Light starts to dim because now we think we need other things or people in our lives in order for our light to shine.
Please know and understand that our Light Shines regardless of being attached to anything of this world.
Our light is OF LOVE. WHEN WE LOVE OURSELVES WE TRULY UNDERSTAND HOW TO LOVE OTHERS THE SAME.
As we learn to love the world and everything that is on this planet the same as we love ourselves we can reverse the conditions of: 1) A Lack Mentality 2) Stagnation 3) Not caring for our Well-Being and 4) Selfishness. BEFORE our light can shine we must overcome these 4 attributes which lie within the darkest side of ourselves.
As we battle our darkness and allow our unique light to shine, transformation can take place, from within because we now take pride in caring about what’s without. There will be no need to alter our outer appearance when we have healed and positively altered our inner being. We face our dark side by caring for the light that is within. In THIS WORLD our darkness can shine with ease but it takes Strength and Courage to allow our Light to Shine.
How do we let our light shine?
When we know and understand that, all around us exist because we exist, we can express our true loving nature because we appreciate what we surround Ourselves with. We know that universe placed us where we need to be in order to enjoy life. But as we enjoy life we comprehend that enjoyment comes with responsibility. If we do not handle our responsibility first then our fun will be interrupted by our darkness in order to place us back on our responsible path. We let our light shine by being our authentic self everywhere that we go.
The light Side of Human Nature is of Love, filled with compassion, housed with responsibility, and is spread through our giving and receiving, in a equal give and take manner. We allow the flow of life to occur naturally without trying to control or manipulate the matter of the situation, or the people at hand. We live and allow others to live. We learn and grow and we allow others to learn and grow. We help when asked, BUT AFTER, we assess their situation. We allow The Most High to stay in control we enjoy the process of doing our duty on this planet until our job is complete, our lessons are learned, and until our time is up. We do all of these things with Love and Light.
With Love, Loyalty, Honesty, and Respect Be Blessed with the ability to enjoy Your Lighter Side My People!❣️
