Righting the Wrongs: Does it even matter?

What if everyone was right, and also wrong, at the same time? What if your belief system was blown open tomorrow? Would you be lost, without direction, wondering who you are? Many would be, and that is why it is so important to remain open minded and curious. Your beliefs are formed from an early age, with many factors playing a part, including family structure, demographics, media exposure, and many more. When you are dedicated to being “right” and condemning others to being “wrong”, you are setting yourself up to, ultimately, fail.

A person who is set on being right, and judges others who are perceived to be wrong, is stuck in a loop of anger and frustration. I know, because I was stuck in this loop for a long time. I was always upset with someone, and frustrated that people seemed so “stupid”. I had no time to love because I was too busy judging and condemning everyone, including myself.

The political climate today has us pitted against each other. Women are hating men, and the men are hating themselves, defending themselves, and no one is feeling empowered. There is no true justice in the government, and no one will EVER be satisfied with the outcome of these processes. The media frenzy is creating distraction and division and we are falling into the trap by watching countless hours of testimony, participating in hateful and angry discussions on message boards, and arguing with our friends and family. STOP. Take a few breaths and ask yourself what is truly important to you. What are you avoiding or neglecting by putting all your energy into something that you cannot change?

Perhaps my view of a Utopian future is silly, and perhaps it is not. However; I will stay the course and choose to spend my energy on creating positive and meaningful change in my life, and the lives of others. I will spend my time hanging out with my 16 year old, who gets a lot of negativity and hate at school, and I want to show him there is another way. I want to have meaningful discussions about ideas, and dream of that Utopian society.

Being an Empath in this type of atmosphere is very challenging, and if you allow yourself to be pulled into the maelstrom, you will drown. You may find that you have to take medication in order to function, or you may rely on addictions to stem the rising tide of emotions that you can no longer seem to escape. Because of all this turmoil, I have been led to offer a new training course for Empaths and Intuitives. I will teach you all the tools I use in order to navigate this atmosphere of change and transition. I will teach you how to connect with your inner self so that you may thrive, regardless of external energies.

Many Blessings to you all today!
