BE THE VOICE


When I was in the 3rd grade I had a best friend who meant the world to me, and who I am still friends with today. She was and still is the sweetest human I have ever met walking around planet Earth. We met in Kindergarten, were inseparable all throughout elementary school, and kept in touch often after I moved before High School. As a small child, her Throat Chakra was not the strongest and she was often labeled "shy." I never failed to rise to the occasion if she needed something and was too hesitant to ask. My way of being didn't change as I grew, only it grew with me; Stronger. I always rooted for the underdog and never had a problem speaking up for children, animals, or any other being that simply did not have the ability to open up their mouths and speak for themselves. People often avoid speaking their truth because they fear that it will cause conflict in some way, however, I believe if you are speaking from a place of love and positive intent, (and staying calm enough to choose only helpful words!) then nothing but brilliant results are to come into fruition.
Yesterday was another example of exercising the right to speak powerfully, yet with kindness. A young neighbor of mine went on vacation for a week, and left her dog behind in a crate. With the exception of a dog-sitter to stop by with food and a few "pee breaks" this pup was on solitude lock-down round the clock. When the news traveled my way, I spoke up on it. With pure intent in my heart and sincere efforts to discard judgement, I was able to make contact and create a much better plan. Myself and another neighbor invited his mommy to have an uncomfortable but productive conversation, where in the end she saw this was not the best decision and opened her heart to additional help and ideas. He is now one happy dog, playing at a neighbors house until his parents return.
It would have been much easier for me to turn me head, look the other way, and "mind my business." But I was blessed with a voice and the courage to attempt to connect with others in a non-aggressive way. There was no conflict yesterday, only solution. The point? NEVER BE AFRAID TO USE YOUR WORDS. We have them for a reason. Be careful which ones you chose, set you intent with positivity, and be mindful, yet...speak. "Be the voice for those that have no voice."

WHERE DO YOU RESIDE?

There is this place called "All-About-Me-Ville" and it's growing population is astounding. I should know, I was nestled there for years. I lived right on the corner of Self Ave. and Centered Drive. (LOL) Okay, so you see where i am going with today's blog. Here's the real deal - I moved out of that zone about a year ago. It took several steps for me to officially awaken and grasp the concept of what life would be like if I took a bow on the stage of lif e and allowed the spot light to shine onto someone else's performance for a while. Truth be told, it was the most freeing sensation I have ever experienced!!!! The irony today is that I run into individuals that still patrol those streets on the daily and I cannot help but bounce back and forth between dumbfounded and frustrated. Not sure if you're one of the residents? Or perhaps you wonder if you have crossed paths with a narcissist? Here is how you can tell: 1) Do you find yourself having to repeat...

ARE YOU AN INTUITIVE EMPATH?

SIGNS YOU ARE "AN INTUITIVE EMPATH" 1) You can feel other people's emotions, but you have full awareness that they are not your own. 2) You can see beyond a person's feelings and instinctively understand the larger picture and what's truly behind their emotions. 3) You often help others better understand their own feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. 4) You are typically everyone's "go-to" for counseling & advice in your daily routine. 5) You are naturally hyper-sensitive. 6) You physically cannot stand to witness suffering in others. 7) You may not be comfortable in large groups, as all that energy is overwhelming. 8) Physical symptoms appear after emotionally intense situations. 9) You are basically a human lie detector. 10) You grow uncomfortable around those that are being inauthentic.
