Salutation peace and inner stillness:
When we experience an upset in our day to day routine, we should be excited to know that God: a power greater than self , is the one controlling and running our lives. For it is not our own will that is stepping in. It is the love and grace of god that builds a place of common ground.
This common ground allows you to share your trying experience. That missed bus, misplaced-keys, the car accident that you are stuck in, the missed elevator: all could be that way to make way for you to experience what you need to instead of what you want to experience.
When we put our own desires before that of what we meed to do and the contract we made with God our free will only (imho) allows us to go but so far. We end-up having those same experiences just with the harshest of consequences.
The hard thing or the thing that I have found that catches everyone up is the use of the mind and heart in conjunction with survival. The understanding that you are not at the helm of your existence but that God is and for those crowned, that Orisha whose ache you have is at the helm of your life.
Those two points are the two things that cause often times the time to create conflict where no conflict is... the conflict is within self. 1. Having the internal conversation with God that allows for external answers and sets a precedent. 2. Who is in control. Letting go to a power one can not see or touch is where the conflict lives. And then again what do I know. I see the world different.
Today I challenge you to look at Life through a lens called "not my experience". Our individual experiences are just that "ours and often personal", however to see more and clearly we must look through others experience and lens.
I know this seems far fetched but this assignment is how I got to the place of knowing that although individuals may try their hardest to "kill me", "dead me", oh I saw that coffin.."talk about me in the world", "make me seems crazy" .. that I will not be those things....not only do I want to have a better experience. I want my enemy to have one as well. Human compassion is why I have continued to have these conversations with spirit. Because trust I do not want to be this awake.
Reflections Eternal-
Post Script: Food for thought.....
"I should make it clear that the way I pray and how I pray I am told by spirit about every negative thing said, done, thought, about me, and I do, so in order to forgive those who trespass against me. Im not perfect and I know the difficulty when dealing with anger so as a way to handle my frustrations and test my limits this is how I have prayed.
Moferefun Yemonja for blessing me with that gift of sight, I now pray for the courage to tell people about themselves when they approach me with half witted smegal like smiles. I see you wolf for what you are. I now pray for the continued ache to protect the parts of me that are still on the chopping block. I now pray that my enemy be washed over by your salt water Mommy, and I pray for greater compassions of love."

This is so honest and raw you are an amazing writer. As long as you have peace and forgiveness in your heart you have done your part and you can move on from that forever stronger and changed. You may have been broken down by those closest to you but to choose to stand up a piece yourself together is something truly beautiful and inspiring. You are a very strong woman and God does have a plan for you. -ravenscape
THANK YOU.
thank you
I love this. My motto has always been kill'em with kindness. There's always negative energy around, but we have to make our positive energy be even stronger to push through others hardness. This was great! *dspot*
