What happens when my being feels so lethargic that the thought of walking across my living room to pick up a book overwhelms me? Well, I don’t know about you, I become frustrated and even angry; which in turn develops into a feeling of hopelessness; and inevitably finds me sobbing uncontrollably and wondering what the heck just happened.
Well, guess what? If this accurately describes moments, that you may have been experiencing, get used to it. As the world spins and shifts in its grid those frequencies and the balance and the rhythm of our inner beings are directly affected. I will hold on and get ready for the ride. I know that this too shall pass. I’ll be good to myself and listen carefully to my intuition.
I pay extreme attention to those feelings that I am experiencing and not get caught up in believing that I am sick and go rushing off to the doctor to give me some pills to make me feel better. I’ll stop, take a deep breath and perhaps take another deep breath; then ask myself what it is that I need right at this moment. Now I’ll listen very carefully and pay attention to my inner being. My body never lies to me.
For all those caretakers and light workers out there. Be patient and trust your body. Right now we need to give special honor to our beings. Just as in the Aircraft when the flight attendant says, “Adults, place the oxygen mask carefully over your face first then place a mask over the face of your child.” It is imperative that I honor my being at this time of shift. I’ve got this!

Having Compassion
Whenever someone steps into my life that seems angry, hostile and argumentative, it is a time to check into my own being and see why I may have attracted this being. What part of me may be feeling less than whole? Or, when did I last feel this way and how did I overcome this experience.
After contemplating this scenario I quickly receive my answers. Clearly I was feeling unsure, my faith was diminished and I was feeling fearful about what was occurring in my life. When I connect to this understanding I can quickly replace my indignation, at the others behavior, with compassion and send some unconditional love in their direction. This does not mean that I have to change the other person. It simply means that I hold compassion. It can be so easy to go to that place of judgment, putting the other person down for their behavior, which in turn depletes my energy. Yes! I got this one. I hold compassion.
Ego Born of Fear
So often we make choices from a fear-based thought; e.g. when an invitation arrives for that black-tie affair and ego kicks in the thought, “I don’t have a thing to wear!” Is that true? Or is it more a question of fear that, “I’ve worn that before and cannot run the chances of anyone noticing me wearing it again!” Needless-to-say this kind of thing happens frequently for some people and does it really matter? How many times have you attended an event and noticed the repeat attire? Do you really care what the other attendees are wearing or are you there to attend the event?
If you ever seem to be having difficulty making any decision, help yourself by asking yourself, “What is my underlying fear?” Nine times out of ten it will relate directly to ego and to what other people may think. Give yourself a break and be your authentic self; recognize the fear; acknowledge it; accept it; then agree to let it go and make the decision, based on what you really want, not based on any other persons beliefs. As long as we allow ourselves to fall victim to perceived responses, based on stories of the past, we cannot expect to experience different or better results.
If you happen to find yourself getting irritated or angry, while in debate with someone, this is almost, inevitably caused by ego born of fear. Either the fear, that this person may not be in agreement with you or not even hearing you, is playing heavily on this debate. This could also mean, heaven forbid, that you have heard this other point of view too often and you are beginning to fear it is your own truth but you are too invested in your point of view, to admit to this scary recognition.
There are many different possible scenarios that spell out ego born of fear. Suffice it to say it is time to regain your power by not giving into fear-based thoughts, propelled by ego.
Now, hot off the press, my latest words of wisdom that speak to this very subject.
Ego Born of Fear
In moments of uncertainty we often lose our power
And fall victim to a life that need not be
If only we would recognize the part that ego plays
We could conger up the world we want to see
Whenever we feel victimized we must take time to look inside
And face that fear that’s standing in our way
If the story that belongs to it is of a day gone by
We must be grateful that this is a brand new day
If the story you’re repeating and the players are the same
It’s time to give the leading role a completely different name
You see it’s all a story now – this memory from your past
You can choose to let it go or choose to make it last
The energy you give this is meant for other things
The moment that you let it go – just see the joy it brings
This magnificent new moment a new story will appear
And if it’s not infused with joy it is ego born of fear
You have the power to recognize that feeling less than whole
Because the fear inside of you cannot touch your soul
