Image CreditWhy do we spend our lives passive-aggressively justifying ourselves to other humans? Have we become so disconnected from our collective humanity that we are unable to like people for who they are?
We waste so much energy trying to justify our authentic selves and share images depicting our anger towards some wrongdoing towards us. When in fact, if we stop for a second and think, who are we really justifying it to? The people who love you know your personality and understand that you are not defined by the category you list yourself in. The people that love you, that truly love you for YOU don't mind. Fuck the insecurities. The world is waking up.
The people who you attract and have in your life are there for a reason. Yes, some will come and go and that's ok too. Our energy attracts what is needed for us to grow. Whether the people we have in our lives are good for us or bad for us, they can all teach us something. It is up to us to decipher the lesson and find a way to learn from it.
Yes, there are going to be people out there that judge you. Yes, it is going to make you feel unloved. But it's important to remember that you can at any time CHOOSE to listen and react or shut it out. Not everyone is for everyone.
Easier said than done, I hear you say. Maybe, but there are mindfulness techniques and self-help tips to keep the energy vampires at bay. They say ignorance is bliss. Avoid the gossip column and start listening to your intuition and those that give you good advice. A good friend will offer constructive criticism. If we are unable to accept that, we need to look within to understand why we are feeling triggered by their words.
There are so many humans on this planet. We have all diverged and separated ourselves. We have detached from our source in exchange for four walls, fences, barriers, boundaries, and borders. We are taught to metaphorically remove these barriers, but how can we when everywhere we look this ideology is emulated across every part of this planet within our societies. It is these very barriers that create the psychological mindset that creates diversity, fear, and hatred.
We so desperately need to reconnect...
To nature, to our communities, to the earth. We have to stop living in a way that is destroying the life on our planet, including ourselves. We need to stop comparing ourselves to each other. Start realizing that playing "keeping up with the Jones's" is an unhealthy habit brought about by greedy corporations capitalizing on our FOMO creating a frenzy within us if we don't have the same as everyone else.
We need to learn that material possessions are meant as tools to help our needs. Not supply our wants. Walking around dressed to impress without a care in the world for the fact that a young child in a country with no child labor laws probably worked for peanuts to make that outfit. Or the fact that the material used in that designer sweater was probably made in a factory that dumps tons of chemicals into its water system, contaminating it to the point where other life forms cannot survive.
And as for the Pandemic. Our opinions have left us so divided that I am starting to believe that this is just another divide and conquer tactic used by the elite. We have neighbors acting as agent Smiths, ready to report you to the COVID Police at any given moment. They are fuelled by the fear and despair that our governments drive into us so hard.
We woke up from 911 and all the other terrorist propaganda. They know it doesn't work. I can't help feeling as though this is a biological COLD WAR. We are afraid of a virus. To the point that we would turn against our fellow folk in favor of the protection from governments who aren't actually trying to protect us. They are trying to control us. They need us to be compliant. They spill daily nonsense, dictate to us what is right and what is wrong. But they never teach us moral values.
Capitalism has become a dictatorship masquerading as a free market. Democracy disappeared long ago and only the ideology remains. I have yet to see a government that practices what it preaches.
IT IS TIME WE STOP JUDGING AND START FINDING SOLUTIONS. LOVE FIERCELY, SHOW COMPASSION AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, BE KIND TO ALL LIVING BEINGS.
Be passionate about the things that mean something to you but do it with LOVE. Stop apologizing for who you are and start living. And remember thoughts become things. If we continue to spread negativity and hate the world will continue to grow in anger, giving power to the storms.
Let's find a way to change things peacefully. ❤

Well said.
Most of us spend our energies proving something or, worst of all, holding someone back from our lives. Our energy is spent motionless and not growing forward.
Thank You, yes I think it's important to know and understand when this is happening to us.
Thank you for your lovely comment. Xx
I find that the biggest reasons for strife are communications and stubbornness, but I think there's a better word for it. Maybe we can't express how we actually feel in those circumstances, and we wouldn't settle for less than what we desire. I don't pretend to be an expert, but in the cases where people have failed to do a thing, a common cause is their lack of communication. People can certainly communicate, but it's delivering the message the way you intend to the audience that has the greatest impact that matters.
Yes, lack of communication is a big thing. We live in a world where people don't listen to each other. They just wait to respond.
Thank you for your comment 💚🤗
Siempre observé con curiosidad las frases que usaba mi mamá cuando hacía referencia a las "energías positivas y negativas". Cuánta razón tenía y sigue teniendo! Nos llenamos la boca con palabras que no son más que el reflejo de lo que abunda en nuestros corazones, si llenaramos nuestro interior con mejores vibras, tendríamos mejores cosas que ofrecer al universo y a quienes dan vida al mismo y lo mejor es que todo lo que enviamos vuelve de regreso. 🤗✨
Si, es muy importante communicar con vibras positivas. Recuerdando que todos sentimos regresar a nosotros multiplicada.
Gracias por leer mi publicaion y tu comentario.💚🙏🤗
We all need that inward assessment. Fears, insecurities and other form of negativity is eating us up.
Like you said "thoughts becomes things". We must remain positive if we want to see positivity.
Love and compassion for humanity should conquer all.
Yes it really isn't hard to act with kindness, thanks for reading and your lovely comment.
💚🤗
YES to all of this. What amazing, powerful words. 🙏❤️

Agree, agree, and agree! Hate to admit I don' t have much hope for the new generation changing things for the better. I need to be more optimistic.
I think it's something that may take a few generations, starting with ours. It will happen but may just be a slow transition. I hope anyway. 🙏🤗
Gosh how come I miss posts like that? Need to look more carefully through my feed every day. Such great words and yes it is not easy to make that change.
See I have an identical twin sister. We couldn't be more different. In a way she is the exact opposite of me. In her believes, the way she lives her life and how she sees the world. In a way it is just the exaggeration of the two sides of one medal, her and me and it is a statement of the world we live in.
We are separated yet connected. But I also see that the separation going on in this world is hard to overcome, and it seems it is getting harder each day. Not to get sucked into the system takes a lot of courage. I will continue to find a different way and maybe others will follow.
Tuesday I receive a book, and I am curious what it will open in me.
Sending you huge hugs 🤗 !
I hear You, I need to add you to my favorites feed. That way I hopefully won't miss your posts too.
That's very interesting about your twin sister. I like your analogy and understanding of the opposite personalities of you both.
Yes we all need to find a different way to not get sucked into the system. But then again I think most of us here are quite aware of this and most of us are on the transition team. 🤗🙇♀️
Let me know how you get on with the book. I am looking for something new to read and if it helps us grow and evolve all the better.
Big hugs and much love to you too @bulldog-joy 🤗🤗💚💚
There is a favorites feed? Gotta check that out...tomorrow lol. Off to bed now.

It's so true. I worked in factories for knits in India and many weren't able to afford waste water management systems because of competitive prices until a few decided to implement basic humanitarian standards. Given that it contaminates ground water, in countries with cheap labour, the chemical lobby might not care about regulations for the underprivileged. You are right, we need to embrace positive change. The division is unfortunate. When having conversations about vaccinations, there are strong opinions. Many don't think people who don't want to get vaccinated are actually helping. What about their basic right and liberty. The non conformity is disturbing to them, whereas the conformity is disturbing to someone like me. The coercive measures that are being taken to keep people in line to the agenda reminds of how fear can make people trust the farmer. Governments do not very often keep the best interest of an average civilian in mind. After all it's about keeping live stock in check with cradle prods? If we are to question liberty and freedom at a very basic level, one notices the hypocrisy in the so called corona police propagators. I conclude with you that we need to all ask these basic question on how free we actually are. A very good way to do this is to ask how people suffered during the second world war and then ask what people would think in 2099 about how people suffered in 2021?
