Tapping the Power of your Inner Wisdom
When was the last time someone sat you down and told you how
amazing, special and unique you are?
Today? A few days ago? A while back? Never?
For most of us it's been some time... But does that mean we are
anything short of magnificent?
We easily recall the times when someone tells us we did wrong,
when we were made to feel bad for trying and getting it wrong;
when we've been reprimanded or punished for a mistake that
happened in a momentary lapse in concentration or due to a lack
of understanding. Yet life can be simple and a lot less
complicated, especially when we have true gratitude and
appreciation for the unique being that is us.
Just take a moment and mull this over:
>From the moment we were born we had the innate intelligence to
breath and within seconds we learned how to cry, screw up our
face and wiggle our fingers and toes. Within hours we'd learned
to recognise our mother by smell. And in the days that followed
learned who and what we liked, and what we didn't. And pretty
soon the miracle that is you and me, learned to walk talk, eat
and throw up.
We are brilliant, aren't we? In fact we are more brilliant. Let
me show you...
Before you left school, did any of your teachers sit you down,
and ask: 'How will you use your unique gifts in the world? Did
they even explore the term 'unique gift' with you? My guess
would be that during your entire school life, you'd have been
extremely lucky if anyone ever spoke to you about your
uniqueness.
But just because someone didn't explore the issue of your
uniqueness with you, it doesn't mean you are not unique. It just
means you may have forgotten the great and wonderful thing you
are and maybe not yet explored the real beauty and wonder that
is you...
And these same people - our teachers and our leaders and our
media, even our parents (or especially our parents depending on
upbringing) - they have forgotten to impart a few other vital
bits of information. Like what?
Well, advice on love and romance for one thing. I think you'll
agree sharing love with another is a vital part of life. We all
want it, don't we? It's the thing that make our hearts sing;
it's what makes the world go round and it's what we yearn for
when we don't have it.
So what gem could our teacher and parents told us about love
that would have been vital to us... if they had known it
themselves...
You're probably familiar with the term, Soul-mate. Its seems a
lovely concept, but a bit of a day-dream on the surface. But is
it? I often hear people saying, "I want to find my soul mate".
But did anyone point out to you that it would be impossible for
your true soul-mate to discover your soul, before you discovered
it?
It stands to reason that if you don't know about your own
uniqueness and power and understand about your purpose for being
here, then neither will any mate. In fact what you'll most
probably discover is a person who shows you all your flaws and
who shows you how far you are from your soul!
Am I blaming our teacher and our parents?
Not really. I don't think they knew any better. But if we are to
live a life of true happiness then it is important that we tap
into our wisdom and explore our uniqueness and our soul-mate
relationships and explore how we can be all we can be, otherwise
we and the next generation, our kids, will continue to flounder
in the dark for generation after generation.
You've been tagged now! You now have the responsibility to do
something different!
But it doesn't have to be a burden.
What can be done?
Find teachers who identify with your true wonder and can guide
you. Explore your full potential. Play with the possibility that
you can have everything you want.
