THE HAMSTER WHEEL
Those pesky lingering thoughts that just won’t go away! We have done everything we know to do to release and let go but we are still on a hamster wheel. We truly believe we are making progress but now realize there must still be more work to do to clear these thoughts and feelings. We wave our hands in the air as if to shoo away a fly but our emotions only stir the energy around us causing the wheel to spin faster. Thoughts and feelings swirling around us so intensely that we lose sight of the truth of it all. What have we missed?
Acceptance? Yes, yes, yes we have accepted that the events have occurred and what is done is done. We have accepted that “things” may never be the same again. We have accepted that this change is moving us into the higher realms of Perfect Order with our thoughts and feelings and they are in accordance with our soul growth. We have accepted it has all happened in Divine Timing.
It’s time to review some of the basic truths. Have we given the benefit of doubt? We know we can never really know another person’s story, so the benefit of doubt is necessary in accepting the events that have occurred. With this understanding, have we followed this offering of the benefit of doubt with love to both our own hearts and the hearts interacting with ours? And have we followed our offering of love and gratitude with that of forgiveness? Forgiveness for known and unknown thoughts and feelings that have impacted our lives is a very necessary step in the process of clearing and releasing.
Another basic truth to review – Love is always the answer. We will love our way out of every situation. Since we are spiritual energy living as earthlings, we need to remember that Love is the bottom line. Love everyone and everything, no matter what. This is what we came into this incarnation to do; to use our spiritual Light Spark of God to experience the powerful miracles that love can accomplish.
So what is our “new” final step in getting off the hamster wheel? SURRENDER. Collect all those dark, heavy energies that are involved and let them go. What are we holding on to? Anger, envy, hopelessness, jealousy, pity, regret, shame; the list could be a long one. We don’t need to hold on to any of these lower energies so send them on up to be transmuted into Love and Light. Hand it all over with the deepest gratitude and strongest faith that this weight, this burden, has been lifted up and off our shoulders and hearts once and for all.
We accept that we are ready to be released from our pesky lingering thoughts as we give it up and we surrender to the one Light that is God. And the one Light that is God is the highest energy we can hold on to.
