People all have different roles to play that contribute to the growth and expansion of us all.
Sometimes people won’t understand your role, and sometimes this may cause them to try and pull you in different directions because what you do, is not something they could do but that’s only because their role is different. Sometimes it’s though fear, and their desire to protect you from what can be a scary world at times. Not everyone is born to stick their head above the parapet to see if it’s safe for others to do so and not everyone has the will to be courageous when they are terrified and all of these things are okay and part of life.
People have at times tried to pull me away from the work I’ve been doing, as if I was wrong about my direction of travel but my inner guidance has been present all my life so I always knew I was heading in the right direction, even when it was really tough to do so.
Lifting others up is the only way to a better world as far as I can see and bringing light into the dark places means nothing can live in the shadows any more.
Every step I have taken along the way has contributed so much to my own story but our wider story too. Driven by a powerful desire to help the most vulnerable members of society experiencing poverty, domestic abuse, child abuse, human trafficking or being under attack by governments or corporations.
The easy thing to do, would have been to bow out and leave all this for someone else to do and change my focus but for me I had to it, I had vowed to be the embodiment of Be The Change you want to see in the world.
Like so many others around the planet traumatised by the destruction of the Earth and the exploitation of people, particularly children I couldn’t take it, there was no way I could remain silent when I knew what was going on around me and so I campaigned, and campaigned, and then campaigned some more. I learned to work with my emotions and use them to guide me and when things got too much, I discovered a talent for poetry that I never knew I had and learned to communicate in a way more people could hear.
I have learned so much through the steps I have taken, gained wisdom and understanding which I had always needed, as before I experienced grief and heartache, I didn’t know how difficult the climb back to full health and vitality could be and also why people behaved in certain ways towards each other.
Let your heart be your guide, use discernment and you will know you are on the right path, even when the journey is a difficult one.
We are all unique, special and important to the story of our lives and the Universe (one verse, one heart, one song). Live your best life, love fully, take time to listen and understand because when we really open our eyes the beauty is there to be beheld and appreciated ❤
P.S. when I was younger I wanted to be a Forensic Psychologist. It’s what gave me to the stomach to look.
