Self Esteem/Law of Attraction/Media/Government

Think The Powerful Elite/Government Want You To Have Self Esteem?
Think Again.....


What is self esteem? Self esteem is the belief in ones own value and worth. When one has high self esteem, he/she is considered to be one who is able to think their own thoughts, make decisions based on ones own thoughts, and believes in the value of ones own thoughts.

If I were an alien and I were peering down on this society, what I think would sound something like this; “ Here these humans are, glorious physical manifestations of source energy, with every means possible to be healthy, wealthy, happy and wise. There are parks for them to jog through, sunsets for them to delight in, soil for them to eat from, others to love and care for, as well as countless ways for them to learn about laws like the law of attraction. And yet the overwhelming majority of these physical manifestations of energy are obese, lazy complainers, who prefer to sleepwalk through their physical life, while more conscious “elite” beings amongst them control the masses through various forms of technology, media as well as governmental and local man made laws. These sleepwalkers are mindless puppets, being fed subliminal messages through their televisions, music, political leaders, and news headlines. These physical manifestations of energy, have simply given up. They refuse to own their right to know their own minds, and instead choose to sit back, absorb images and information that is nonsensical, degrading, minimizing and fear producing. These very capable energy beings are disconnected from their source, and do not even know their laziness, fear, and submission to mediocrity, is simply attracting more of the same into their lives in perfect alignment with The Law of Attraction.”

If I were an alien, I would think this planet was inhabited by some retarded, mutant life form. It would be difficult to imagine anything less. As smart as we think we are, we have polluted the very thing that without our existence would cease. Our planet so glorious, so able to sustain us on every level, and yet the majority of beings rarely if ever notice the beauty in sunsets or the rhythm of the ocean. Instead of honoring that which feeds us, we ignore it’s invaluable divinity and then have the audacity to whine when it rains.

If I were an alien there are things I would want you to know. I would want you to know that you are magnificent. The elite thinkers; your corporate and political leaders; the ones amongst you who embrace learning, who are not lazy complainers or fans of fast food, follow laws they are using to their advantage, and to your disadvantage. Your elite think they are big, and they prefer that you believe you are small. If you are riddled with disease, fear, and unnecessary worry, you are also following the laws of attraction.


The Law of Attraction is a law that simply put refers to the idea that like attracts like.

If I were an alien I would want you to understand that the powerful amongst you do not withhold this information from you, but they do emit information that is meant to disconnect you from the powerful creator you truly are. The information you receive through your media, your reality TV, through your newspapers and music, is nothing shy then an attempt to have you direct your attention from your inner source and onto thoughts that prevent you from knowing how magnificent you truly are.

If I were an alien I would want you to love your self. I would want you to love your self so much, that when negative or disturbing information tried to find you, you would turn away from them and instead you would choose to seek information that helped you feel good.

If I were an alien I would want your life form to wake up and to stop making excuses for why you do not love yourselves. Your only agenda would be to feel good now, and to keep reaching to feel better! The same source that created the moon, the oceans, the sky and the stars created you. Each being you look at, is an extension of your self. It is your job to seek those of like minds and to spread love and truth wherever and whenever possible.

The elite amongst you do not want you to love your self/selves, because if you did the collective potential of the masses might start powerful competitive corporations, or challenge information, laws and the actions of your government. If you loved your self, you would not be obese, and your health would be so good that you would no longer need the enormous amounts of medications that fuel the pharmaceutical giants, and the stock market. Your leaders of government and industry follow the same laws you all do, except they use the laws knowingly.

Secrets To The Secret: What The Elite Don't Want You To Learn About

When I was a little girl, I used to think that maybe I was an alien. I didn't ever feel like I quite fit in. I could feel others energy, or vibes, and shied away from many, simply because I didn't "feel" comfortable around them.

Often, I would think there was something wrong with me, because so many others didn't seem to feel what I felt.

For the past 11 years, I have been on a "soul journey". It has been my obsession to figure "me" out.

Bewildered, overwhelmed, exhausted and frustrated after my divorce, I threw my hands up in the air and waved the white flag. I was done. I needed answers. My life wasn't working.

Never being the type who could easily accept anything for its face value, I knew I needed to roll up my spiritual sleeves, and dig into my psyche if I were ever going to get, to wherever the hell it was I was going.

It became crucial that I begin back at square one.

Why was I where I was? What thoughts got me to where I was? Why did I think the thoughts I thought?

If you read through this blog, you will undoubtedly learn that I have battled and won the war codependency created in my life. Deeper, I get it. Every ounce of chaos I endured, my thoughts drew to me in my physical world.

But this post is not about codependency. Its much much meatier than that.

While learning to unravel the wrinkles in my thought process, I stumbled upon internet searches about "secret societies" like the Skull and Bones and Masons, to name a few. Not ready at the time 11 years ago to digest the grizzle of these secret societies; still too busy digesting the fat of my own mind, I filed the information somewhere in the back of my mind.

Years later, I am in a much happier place, and strangely enough once again murmurs of secret societies have begun to stir.

Coincidence? Naa...I know better than that. I am still a student, and its time for me to learn more.

THE LAW OF ATTRACTION

Don't believe me. Do your own research. The law of attraction is responsible for the existence of our galaxies, and every other galaxy. According to Quantum Physics, matter is made up of atoms and atoms attract atoms of similar energy composition. Energy and matter are said to be interchangeable...so...if thought is considered to be energy, then that energy will automatically draw to it similar energy; even in the form of matter or materialistic things.

Whatever you "think" about, you will draw to you. If you are insecure, you will draw to you people who help you validate your insecurities. If you cannot resist chocolate, you will notice in your environment every donut, chocolate kiss, or brownie within a mile radius that helps you validate your belief that you cannot resist chocolate. If you are happy, you will draw to you those things in your environment that validate your happiness. Essentially whatever we think about the most, will show up.

our outer is merely a mirror to our inner.

SECRETS TO THE SECRET

If you really want your life to change, then you have to change your life.

If you want to lose weight, unless you change what you "think" about, you won't lose weight.

The "thinking" is where the meat is. You must learn to observe your own mind, so that you can learn to re-program your mind so that you can attract to you what you really desire.

YOUR TRUTH

The secret? The secret is, this material world is crap, B/S, nonsense...

The truth is, you are not your body, or even your mind.

Your insecurities, your fears...all nonsense....

That's right, crap.........utter crap.......

Because the truth is, you are perfect.

You are, at your core energy. When your physical being ceases to function, the energy that created you, and kept you alive, will leave your body and join other energies.

The energy that held the atoms of your cells together cannot be destroyed.

Where did that energy come from?

Where or why energy exists, we do not know. What we do know is, energy is energy because the law of attraction is real.

WHAT THE ELITE DO NOT WANT YOU TO LEARN

Let's face it. Most of us weren't all that interested in quantum physics when we were in school. But who amongst us was?

Maybe they were geeks then, but look at them now.

They are Yale graduates, Presidents of countries, Kings, Princes and alike.

What's the connection?

Well maybe, just maybe if you or I were smart enough to get into Yale, we would have had to have learned about quantum physics and the law of attraction. The elite; the ones who were smart and or lucky enough to be part of the qualifiable gene pool, not only learned about the law of attraction; they became obsessed with it.

WHAT YOU SHOULD LEARN

If you're not reading, you're not learning. If you're not actively trying to figure out how this energy thing works; the very thing that governs our universe and all universes, you will not attract to you the information you could use to make your life work more wonderfully.

What the elite want you to believe is, you are NOT in control. They want you stupid. They want you illiterate. They want you to be depressed. They want you murdering. They want you drinking. They want you drugging. They want you unable to gain control over your mind.

THEY CONTROL EVERYTHING:WELL, THEY CONTROL WHAT YOU SEE, AND MAYBE WHAT YOU FEEL AND BELIEVE

( THAT'S ANOTHER SECRET )

The elite control the media. What you see is a watered down version of what truly is.

You ask; Why is it our magazine and newspaper headlines seem to care more about celebrity nonsense than foreign affairs?

Can't figure that out?

THINK...If the elite amongst us can keep us ignorant to what is really going on, then perhaps we-the masses might be able to forge together and create some resistance or competition they do not want.

Conspiracy theory? Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.

But I hold no one responsible but myself.

I do not blame others for seeking information that benefits themselves. I do not blame my government for taking phonics out of our schools. I as a parent am ultimately responsible for the teaching of my child.

I do not blame my government for keeping me in the dark. It is ultimately my responsibility, right and obligation to know what the hell is going on in my world. And further, with the internet, I have no excuse not to know.

I do not blame my government for taxes. I am responsible for what I make, what I save and how I save it.

IS IT TRUE SECRET SOCIETIES WERE CREATED TO KEEP THE AVERAGE JOE DOWN

It is my belief, that the elite have found ways to prevent the average Joe from making it big, but not by absolute force. Instead, the elite believe in the law of attraction and use it to their advantage to stay above the rest.

I do believe however, that secret societies were formed to stay above the rest.

I also believe that elite elementary schools, middle schools, high schools and universities, were also put in place to ensure that the offspring of the elite were cultivated for greatness to ensure the the elite gene pool, stayed the elite gene pool.

I do believe the elite encourage marrying within their "class" for specific reasons; to ensure the elite stay the elite.

The elite know the law of attraction works, so when they gather together they speak of splendid and grand things. They speak of conquest, riches, and fortune. Collectively these men, focus, and multiply the energy they emit, or transmit to one another. Not only are they emitting grand energy, but they are receiving the energy back, as according to the law of attraction.

Like attracts like. Greatness attracts more greatness...Money attracts money.

Think Higher...................

If the elite, through their positions in society have the ability to control what information is put out in society, in essence they control the energy that is being emitted through the information.

If the information we are receiving is doom and gloom, then collectively, an entire nation will feel doom and gloom. Being as like attracts like, doom attracts more doom, right there in your living room.

So we divorce more, we drink more, we drug more, and we hate ourselves more...because everything we see reminds us of how ugly or fat or how worthless and unhappy we are...

Why is it we permit magazines to photoshop images of models that are so ridiculous they are beyond realistic? Because if the elite can get us to believe these unrealistic representations of "women" are achievable, then the elite can keep women depressed.

If the elite can keep women depressed and in competition with one another, then we women are way too busy to band together and give the "elite men" any real competition at a higher level.

Think Cinderella hating her ugly stepsisters was an accident? Personally, I don't think so.

HOW CAN YOU MAKE THE LAW OF ATTRACTION WORK FOR YOU?

First, gain knowledge. The elite are counting on you not wanting to seek information that will allow you to grow and gain momentum. If you have made it through this blog this far, pat yourself on the back, because most people will not be open or teachable enough to even entertain the issues I have addressed.

BOTTOM LINE

Secret societies exist. Do your own research. Research Carnegie, Hill, Edison, Franklin, Ford and alike. Read about Masons, Illuminati, Skulls and Bones and draw your own conclusions.

I may not know everything there is to know about this place I call home; my planet earth. But I do know that the law of attraction is real. If it weren't, clouds wouldn't be clouds, rain wouldn't be rain, and the sofa I am sitting on, wouldn't be a sofa at all.

I know the law of attraction works, because I have two eyes, that are being held together by alike atoms of similar molecular and energy composition, otherwise I wouldn't have eyes.

THE GREAT NEWS

The great news is, no matter what anyone tries to make you feel, you can choose to feel something different.

No matter how anyone else feels, you can feel good. Your energy simply wants to grow, and it is your choice in what direction; positive or negative, your energy can go.

YOU ARE NOT A GERMAN SHEPHERD.........YOU CAN THINK........YOU CAN CHOOSE.........YOU CAN DECONTAMINATE YOUR BRAIN AND TRAIN IT TO THINK ABOVE THE INFLUENCE.......

Become a student....a student of who and what you really are...You are me, and I am you...and we are physical manifestations of the law of attraction in human form....

How To Be Happy Now

If you want your life to change, you must change your life...

How willing are you to learn...and how willing are you to change your life to be happy?

If you are not willing to learn, then you will never know anymore than you know now...

Thoughts create your behavior...

Focus all of your attention on your "thought process"...

Do not worry about "how to be happy"...

Most people "fail" because they get caught up in the "how"....how am I going to get there? How will I ever be happy?...

Focus instead on learning to "see" and appreciate all the "good" that is in your world...

Do it over and over...at a conscious level...seek seeing beauty and good in your self and others...

Eventually you will be a magnet for happiness...

Should I Have Plastic Surgery

Many people these days consider plastic surgery as an option to a body fix, that unless plastic surgery was part of the equation, could not get resolved.

As in all things, plastic surgery can be used within realistic reason, or it can be abused. Certainly a person who is clearly addicted to plastic surgery, or one who fears the natural laws of life to such an extreme, to the extent that there face looks more like cellophane than skin,this person has gone over the edge. On the other hand, if plastic surgery is being called upon to alleviate an ongoing issue that otherwise could never be rectified, or if surgery is being considered to enhance ones own look, without altering the actual "look" of the individual, plastic surgery, can be a blessed option.

If your body is holding you back and you know that with a specific procedure your life could be enhanced, and your personal stream of joy could be significantly magnified by allowing a skilled surgeon to do what he does best, then by all means, consider doing what needs to get done.

For those of us who grew up in homes, where we were taught that plastic surgery was for the vain, or the rich and famous or for selfish people, sometimes allowing oneself to feel "worthy" of such an option is uncomfortable.

For those of us who had selfish parents, who conditioned us to believe that if we ever "self cared" that WE were selfish, unraveling those whispers can be difficult.

When a child grows up in a home feeling like they do not matter, and is conditioned to believe that what others need, think and want is more important than what he/she needs, thinks or wants, as adults we "mush for brains" children, do not always hear what we need inside our own heads.

For those considering plastic surgery as a way to be more comfortable in ones own body, if you in your heart know that you are not abusing surgery and you are not altering your body to please others or to "fit in" to somebody else's ideal, then your mind is in the right place.

These bodies we are in, are merely suits; costumes we get to house our spirits in. Who you are, has nothing to do with your physical body. Who you are, at your core is an extension of all the magnificence that is.

But because we live in a physical place in a physical reality, one must learn to integrate their physical parts with their mental and spiritual. If surgery can be used to make the "house" your energy travels in more comfortable, by all means consider it as a valid option and put all those silly thoughts about selfishness behind you.

My Husband Has A Mistress

So you just found out your husband has a mistress.

So how long have you suspected this to be so? Be honest....

I know it hurts. I know you are angry and confused, resentful, and full of anxiety...but what I would like you to do is think...think...think...think...and then think some more.

This pain is not of you-meaning; you my dear were not created to spend your life in pain, confusion, anger or resentment. You were not born to be second to a partner. You my darling, regardless of where you live, what you look like or how much money you earn, or do not earn, have not been put into a physical body to spend its lifetime here on this physical planet tortured for any reason what so ever.

You are a divine spiritual energy being whose soul purpose is to grow, expand, to learn, to love, to laugh and to live breathing in all that is positive and splendid on this magnificent planet we call earth.

At this moment, you are so far removed from your truth that you cannot see the forest through the trees. You cannot see how spectacular the sunset is, or how magical the sunrise is, or how enormous the heavens are. You cannot appreciate how magnificently geese fly in formation, or how miraculous the birth of a child is because in your present state; in your physical state all you can feel is the pain of what you see before you.

But my dear...think...think higher..think deeper...just think...

Just because you have now discovered your husbands infidelity does not mean that the sky, the oceans, or the mountains are any less fantastic than they truly are. It just means you are cutting yourself off from how miraculous they are, because you are allowing the physical pain to steal you away from places of joy that are still stored in you somewhere.

I have always said, that truth, no matter how painful is only real road to happiness.

If your husband is having an affair, thank him...Thank him for showing you you deserve more.

Thank him for giving you the chance to declare to the world that you deserve better.

Thank him for being the one to have the courage to admit, at least on some level, that neither of you were truly happy.

Thank him for showing his true lack of character now, so that you still have time to find a man who believes in integrity before your physical life comes to an end.

Thank him for giving you the chance to practice surrender.

Thank him for teaching you to trust your instincts.

Thank him for being the reason you can let go and know you never have to look back.

Thank him for the chance to have off the hook, sex with another man who is more your equal.

Thank him for all the lessons you learned up until now, and for being the diving board for which you can spring off of and start beginning a new, more full, more real, and more gratifying life.

And while you are at it...send thoughts of thanks for the mistress too....

Thank her for showing you that you are not her...You know you're not a runner up...

Thank her for showing you what kind of woman you are not...You are not a back stabbing ego, denial based woman...

Thank her for getting your cheating husband out of your life, so that you can go and find a real man, who may not be perfect, but who believes in fidelity...

Thank her for giving your husband a reason to leave...

Thank her for all the nights you won't be cleaning his dirty underwear, picking up his smelly socks, or cooking his meals...

Thank her for your chance at a new life, free of ever having to have sex with a man who is not faithful.

Thank her for all the alimony, and child support and future weekends alone to do whatever you want...because daddy and she will of course have the children every other weekend...

Thank her for all the cooking classes, yoga classes, facials, massages and dance lessons you are going to finally have the free time for..

And then...when you are done thanking them both for letting you go, turn around, get in your car and drive to a wide open space...Then look up, see the heavens and shout a big "thank you" to the universe too...

Sister...trust me...you'll be fine... In fact you're going to be better than fine...The life you wish to design is waiting...

Love,

Lisa

Books To Read To Help Improve Self Confidence

We all need a little help along the way to well being.

When I began understanding it was "me" who had to change if I wanted to ever be happy, I knew I was going to need to turn to those who had had the courage to venture out towards their own journey of self discovery for some guidance. You see, I cannot really say anyone in my family was authentically happy. So I was going to have to turn towards those other than family members for help.

I have read close to 200 books on self help. What I needed to know was "why" my mind worked the way it did.

What I discovered thrilled me to the bones. Thinking was primarily the result of childhood programming and conditioning. I reacted and thought and behaved the way I did simply because as I was growing and forming ideas about the world, I was being "taught" to react as well as think by those around me.

My mother was an enabler so she taught me to enable and to think as an enabler. It was that simple.

My father was a man who liked things his way, and who got angry easily when my mother did not jump to his needs. Watching them, I became conditioned to respond to others the same way my mother did and attracted people into my life who angered easily, because these were the types of personalities I was accustomed to.

The really good news for me was, that if my thinking was the result of programming, then that meant that all I had to do was re-program my own mind with information I wanted it to retain.

Books helped me get there. Some of my favorites are; The Art of Living Consciously, The Six Pillars of Self Esteem, Honor Thy Self, Co-dependent No More, The Art of Letting Go, Never Be Lied to Again, The Manipulative Man, Healing The Shame That Binds You, Perfect Daughters, Addicted To Love, and an array of others.

Reading and learning about how the mind worked allowed me to understand that me, my consciousness could run the show. I didn't have to be a conditioned robot and react to circumstances the way I had been taught to. I really could decide how I wanted to see the world, but I could not do that until I first began to unravel why my mind worked in such a dysfunctional way in the first place.

I have learned tremendously by the wide array of authors who so bravely wrote with their hearts as well as their minds to help people like me finally figure it all out...

How To Boost Self Confidence

What is confidence? It is described in dictionaries as "state of believing in truth".

What is your truth?

When you look at a mountain, or stand at the mouth of an ocean, or feel wind race past you, what do you believe?

Who, or what source created such magnificence?

When you see the tall trees and then see tiny ones growing beside it, who or what do you believe created it?

When you see a child born; hear its first cry, or watch it latch onto its mothers breast, do you ever wonder how this could be so, or why?

How is it, that this abundant earth, and every species that occupies it can live so magnificently in such order, without interference?

If man were not here, this planet would still thrive. Its trees would grow. Its oceans would still churn. 

The same source that created the stars, the moon, and all the tiny and humungous creatures of the sea, created you, and created me.

Read that again, but this time don't just read it with your mind. Feel it with your soul. Allow it to infuse your being...because you my dear friend are a magnificent design.

Something created what is...

Something; a knowing; an energy; a source is responsible for this spectacular thing so many of us take for granted; earth.

The same energy that created you, is the same energy that created the heavens, the earth and Lady Gaga, Buddha, Martin Luther King, Michael Jackson, Rosa Parks, Lincoln, Joan of Arc and Teddy Roosevelt.

Doubt that? Any non believer would have to admit that whatever created one human being, had to be responsible for creating us all...

Your truth? Confidence?

You can be confident that who you are...is enough...

You can be confident that no matter what "society" says or anyone else says, the true deep truth about you and about me, and about all...is that we are divine...and part of an energy source that wants nothing more but to grow, expand, envelope and inspire...

People who seems more confident than you, are simply tapping into their truth (their energy) more than someone who is not.

Confident people spend more time on their insides than they do worrying about what a bunch of programmed and conditioned robots think, on the outside.

Most of us are little more than the programming we have been getting fed since infancy...

You are not garbage...You are not stupid...You are not ugly...You are not worthless...

YOU ARE MAGNIFICENT...LOOK UP...THAT'S YOU...BIG...WIDE...MIRACULOUS...PERFECT...FULL...EXPANDING...AND NEVER ENDING...

I AM YOU...YOU ARE ME...SOME OF US JUST DON'T KNOW THAT YET...BUT WHEN YOU DO...AND WHEN YOU DECIDE TO SPEND MORE TIME HERE...IN THE KNOWING...A SHIFT IN YOU TAKES PLACE...AND FINALLY CONFIDENCE ARRIVES...BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN TURNED ON TO THE TRUTH....

Complainers and Difficult People/How To Not Let Their Negativity Effect You

We all know one; a Debbie Downer or an Angry Artie.

They find fault in everyone and everything. Their energy is like static electricity. You can feel it. Nothing about them is genuine, peaceful or accepting. They complain about the weather, the traffic, the work that's on their desk. They complain about the old ladies trying fearfully to cross the street. They complain about fat people, skinny people, people with disabilities, and consistently spew their self hatred out onto the rest of us. Some of us just really want to help improve the world and make this world a more calming place to exist, while others find little time for anything else but finding fault.

I get it.

People can only give you what they feel about themselves inside. But if you are not consciously aware of this fact, when others start spewing their negativity in your direction, it can sometimes be difficult not to get caught up in the river of diarrhea.

Complainers are terribly immature, and lack the ability to see within, or simply choose not to because what they see is too painful. When others complain, it is because they lack self discipline and refute the reasoning to accept things as they are rather than to complain about them.

Complainers complain to keep the focus off of them, but also to boost their ego. A poor man may dislike a wealthy man because the wealthy man has the self discipline to save and to work. Things flow easily to the wealthy man not because he is lucky, but because he chooses to do his work rather than avoid or complain about having work to do. He is happy he is busy, and is thriving. The poor man rather, complains that he has work to do and would rather gamble his money away or spend it on fast food and beer. The poor guy just can't get ahead, and rather look within, and learn from a man like his wealthy friend, he will find fault in him to separate himself from the idea that change is possible. But the poor guy is lacking character and would rather complain than to change...tsk tsk...poor Angry Artie.

When dealing with complainers, rather than give merit to what their immature little ego would have you believe, pay attention to the emotions that happen in you instead. Detach from trying to make sense from what the complainer is trying to convince you is real. Feel your energy shift from peaceful to irritation.

When you have mastered the ability to sense what happens to you when you are stuck in a room or you are within the proximity of a complainer, either leave her/his area, so that their negative energy cannot touch you, or mentally and emotionally detach from what is being said. Do not give attention to the whining giant child. Instead hold onto yourself and try to keep love, and peace flowing within you.

Allow the good you are trying to feel in you to grow. Keep thinking about good things and don't get pulled off track by manipulators who want you to buy into their self pity. Keep expanding the good you feel within you and hopefully one day the complainer will begin to see that the only person who didn't like them, was them.

Often complainers complain about the people they most wish they were like. Secretly they wish they had the courage, fortitude, discipline, motivation and character to fall in love with themselves. And they do, they just refuse to claim the right to feel good, and find complaining attention out of people more ego gratifying than looking within.

Truly, the law of attraction is always at work. If you are in a relationship with a complainer, you don't have to be. Complainers complain because there is usually someone there willing to listen to the selfish, self serving rants....You don't have to be that person anymore...detach, leave, but never leave angry. Just leave that negative energy right where you found it and smile and turn away.

{and btw...for anyone who would complain about my literal comparison from rich to poor, I did not intend to imply all poor people dislike wealthy people. It is meant to simply give a literal reference to my idea. My opinion can be referenced to any duality...such as heavy people who dislike thin people...or blondes who dislike brunettes...hope this clears things up for any reader who might want to find fault in the message I only shared to help improve the world in my own way. I prefer to be part of the solution and not the problem ;) Lisa

How To Deal With Family Conflict

Dear Lisa,

I am a middle aged woman. Recently I had an argument with my brother. Things have not been the same since. He upset me over something he said to me, and when I confronted him about it, he became angry. He never acknowledged hurting my feelings. I am feeling at a loss now, because we no longer speak. How can what you teach help me here?

Dear At A Loss,

Life is like the water cycle. Life is always changing form. We just don't always know when we are clouds, rain, vapor or the ocean. We tend to be creatures whom resist change, although the truth is, we are constantly in flux.

You are changing as you are reading this. Your thoughts are changing. You are digesting foods you ate. Cells in your body are dying and being reborn. Your ideas about people and even your self are also in a state of change. Relax...this is just your meantime.

The meantime is the time between points when your realities about someone or something consciously shift.

If you are aware and enlightened you will see this distance between you and your brother as a good and necessary thing.

Your brother needs to, for whatever reason distance himself from you emotionally. Although you sound like you are one who would prefer "feeling" closer to him.

This is neither a good or a bad situation. In this case, embrace truth without judging it, or wishing to control or change it. Your brother has the right to "not" see what you see. You feel hurt by him, and that is valid I am sure. But on the other hand, he has the right not to see what you see, especially if what he needs is to create some space between you and he.

Love; authentic love is about pure acceptance, surrender and allowing.

Love your self enough to see what you feel, and to surrender and embrace it.

Pull it in; the separateness and make peace with it.

Just let it be. It is a manifestation of the energy that is for whatever reason in your brother.

Do not allow your mind to judge him or the situation for it. Just breath and pull it in.

All is well.

Ask yourself what it is you truly want. If what you truly want is to feel "close" to your brother, you can do that even if he were 1,000 miles away. We do not need to be physically close to someone in order to feel love for them.

Nothing has changed really. You still love your brother. What has changed is your perception of what your brother needs and wants.

And that is not such a big deal, is it?

My suggestion is to love your brother in your mind. Feel love for him and what you have shared, and then love him enough to accept his need for space.

When you do see him, envelope him with a big warm hug, and simply say, "I love you. How have you been?". Put real emotion behind your hug and your "I love you", even if it doesn't come back to you in the way your "ego" would like it to.

Let your brother be who he needs to be right now, even if that means he needs to be pig headed.

The more authentic love you send him, the more valuable the lesson in true authentic love you have the pleasure of teaching him.

Love your self enough to know his reaction to your needs has nothing to do with you, and everything to do with the lesson he needs to learn about authentic love.
