Approval

THE DEAD HAVE SPOKEN

 

One of the things I have struggled with is trying to remember that I have CHOICE in this world.

 

So I can let someone calling me a narcissist as a blow and cry about it.  I could try to change their mind, or I could just accept that it is one persons’ opinion and their opinions about who I am does not define me. 

 

WHAT?

 

From the moment we are born we are seeking our parents to help us.  We seek their approval as young children, in our teens we seek the approval of our peers, teachers, than fellow employees, bosses, etc.  We constantly try to seek the approval of others, why?

 

Because this is how we are raised.  It isn’t any fault, it is in our nature to seek the approval of others.  I believe it goes back to the entire hierarchy in humans that exists in the animal kingdom.  If you are not approved of or accepted you are many times kicked out of the group and left to fend for yourself.  That could spell certain death in the wild.  (This is not a scientific study I read this is from my own personal observation.)

 

So as we use our primitive chimp brain which I will call our human side.  Then there is the soul who just craves love, peace and compassion.  I feel most empaths or sensitive will say that this can and will breaks our hearts during times of distress and struggle not only in our lives but around the world.  We have to seek a reason.  We are constantly wondering why people like us who try to spread joy, love are so often harshly judged.  We do one thing that is not deemed spiritual we are attacked for being human.  It doesn’t make sense.

 

As I was meditating one day I had Jesus say to me, “we all fall short of others expectations.  The higher they place us the easier it is to fall down.  That is why it is important to define yourself as human first and foremost.” 

 

Guess what, I am human. 

Welcome to humanity. 

I am not some angel.

I am not some guardian.

I am first and foremost a human here to learn lessons.

Perfection is no human beings to claim.

Be comfortable with your failures.

If people don’t like you walk away.

It’s their filters, their problem and somehow you were part of their lesson.

If you know you do all you can for the good of humanity and the moments of human nature have snuck in and they judged you, it’s time to walk away.

Be brave in your skin.

Strive to follow your SOULS requests.

Be okay with others judgements, we do not need their approval. 

We need only have approval of our own soul.
