My "small stone" for 1/15
Bombarded! Attacked!
By the media,
Reports of murder, rape, and destruction
Violent movies, suggestive lyrics
All day, every day…
Assaulted! Ambushed!
By the government
Guns or no guns, diminishing rights of women’s control of their bodies,
Should a rapist sue his victim, INSANITY
All day, every day…
Confronted! Hammered!
By people,
Negative, words, racial slurs
Things said to wound and belittle
All day, every day…
It’s time for me to turn off the television,
Unplug the radio, recycle the newspaper,
At least for a while…..
Read something uplifting, something to make me smile…
It’s time for me to turn off my computer,
Log off of FaceBook,
At least for a while….
Make my own music, create my own art…
It’s time for me to block toxic people,
Time to say something positive to counteract their rhetoric,
Then, calmly and confidently walk away….
I came home today feeling battle-worn and defeated. The dismal weather, flu symptoms abounding around me, and being tired I’m sure contributed to this feeling. I wanted to hide, pull the blanket over my head, crawl back into the womb and be protected.
Hmmm…..back into the womb…..
A while back, after a life-changing event in my life, I would create a sphere of white light around me before walking out of the door. I’d gotten out of the habit. So this had been working, it had helped, I just didn’t realize it.
Shielding protects us taking on other people’s bad moods, depression, and anger. Sometimes negative thoughts or energy is purposely aimed at you. Your “shield” is like the American Express card, “Don’t leave home without it!”
There are so many shielding and filtering techniques. Find one that works on your path. Doing it everyday helps you get better and stronger. This is so worth getting up an extra ten minutes earlier. I know I will. (And I think I’ll wear my black onyx necklace tomorrow for extra protection)
Hmmm…..back into the womb…..
Yes, my sphere of white light, is a place of protection…like going back into the womb.
