I used to think that the goal in life was to help the world overcome hardship and hatred, and, once achieved, to maintain the kumbaya airs that would linger forever. I thought there was one shared endpoint, and we were all working toward it.

How naïve of me.

But now I know that life comes in kindness and traumas, light and dark, crossing paths with some who share my point of view, but those here to challenge my beliefs.

The goal of living here, on this, the densest planet with the heaviest gravity, is to overcome hardships because that is how our souls learn.

The trick is not to go out of our way to create the hardships.

Self-sabotage seems to be a common thing among us humans. Maybe it’s to prove how independent we can be or possibly to keep others nearby to rescue us. Regardless, it doesn’t work well.

How far do you need to be pushed before you pay attention? Personally, I had to be pushed hard over a long period of time. I kept thinking that whatever the situation, “I can handle it.” But in truth, I was not supposed to keep handling the same patterns/situations/people repeatedly. I was being challenged to draw healthy boundaries. To find the route to my soul, and remember why I chose this lifetime.

Earth is not for lightweights.

You and I chose this planet because we need the lessons it offers. Earth vibrates at a frequency lower than other planets, but together, as we raise our individual vibrations to greater understanding, we can raise the vibration for all.

Maybe I wasn’t so naïve after all.

If you are wallowing in the struggle, the victimization, or the inability to forgive, and you want to raise your vibration above all of that, Spirit can help. A reading or hypnotherapy may be a viable route for you.

Send me an email to discuss what keeps you stuck when you could be learning and moving forward.
