Embracing the Light & Dark

There is Light & Dark within us all ...

Learning Lessons

I’ve always been one to welcome changes. I learn the lesson or lessons and then leave the past where it belongs. At times, I learn my lessons through past events, either about me personally, my behaviors, or about what I need to know in order to change, generally. And then I move on without looking back with regret or sadness. It’s really a process that has been effectively in motion since I began this Journey of self-healing and self-love nearly 30 years ago.

So, this morning I awakened with the thought in the forefront of my brain that I have changed so drasticallyover the last two decades that I barely recognize the person I was back then. I’ve not only changed my thoughts about many situations. I’ve changed the way I view situations, events, memories and ways of being.

Remaining Cognizant & Insightful

I’ve changed perspectives and ways of thinking. It’s amazing to have the willingness to change, and to know intrinsically that there is always, alwaysroom for improvement as a human being. And it’s wonderful to continue to be willing to recognize and change in accordance with newly arisen situations and events.

It’s incredible to recognize and have the insight to see past the poor choices others make, to see past another’s mistreatment of you, and to recognize the deeply embedded pain within another human beings’ Soul that controls them unconsciously. It brings a new and fresh perspective of why people think and act the way they do. But it also helps me empathize with them rather than seek revenge or react in an unconscious manner towards them.

Ultimately, though, it’s awesome to recognize the flaws within myself and in my own ways of being, especially regarding my own rigid conditioning and thinking. Only in seeing my own flaws am I able to change. Only in my own awareness of my flaws am I able to even begin to change. Change arises from the awareness that something within me is not working any longer.

Change is growth ~ and growth is optional. As a Conscious woman living as mindfully as I possibly can, I welcome change. I welcome Awareness. I welcome and am grateful for Consciousness. I honor both the Light and the darkness within my own self. I realize that we all possess Light and darkness. And I embrace both aspects entirely. 

Have a Be-YOU-tiful Day!
