For all intents and purposes, the reality of the situation is this:  a big red dot with YOU ARE HERE written above it.  You have been blessed, make the most of it. ~ Creator

There are no wrongs and there are no rights. There are only experiences and these experiences leave meaningful lessons. If you are closing a chapter in your life or struggling to find momentum, know that when everything goes wrong….

10. Pain Helps You Grow

As the old saying goes, what doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger. But before this strength can emerge, you must accept your pain.

Each time a tragic event occurs that you think you can’t handle, it is common to try to remove yourself from it altogether. But each time you do this, you leave a piece of yourself behind. When you disassociate yourself with your pain, you cause a split to occur within you. Commonly known as soul splitting.

By embracing your pain and bringing it within to heal, you empower your own growth.

During the first 6 years of our lives our programming is being set. Psychologically, this programming will determine how each of us deals with life, our level of confidence and how we define what love looks and feels like.

The relationship with our parents and caretakers is the single most important connection we establish, as this first understanding becomes the definition of love.

Whether the home is filled with tremendous love or lack there of, even the happiest households still birth children who harbour feelings of pain and rejection.

As you become the adult you, the inner child stays with you compartmentalized into your psyche holding the pain, rejection and programming you were born into.

Until these emotional wounds are healed, they will continue to manifest outwardly and can create all sorts of problems. You may find that you continually live the same scenarios in life, such as finding partners who mirror your original household upbringing, yet are not healthy for you.

Until we can bring these wounds front and center and incorporate them into our conscious awareness, they will continue to live in a “box in our mind”, the inner child psyche, that is still looking to be heard and healed.

Photographer and Lithuanian Chicago resident Ivette Ivens feels that public breastfeeding should be the norm as it has been since the dawn of human life, and shouldn’t be stigmatized the way it is. Through her highly stylized photography, she wants to remind everyone that breastfeeding is OK. And that it’s a “totally normal thing.” She is a mother of two and breastfed her son until he was 3.

She says: “I nursed them both anywhere I wanted. From church to parties, from farmers market to high-end designer stores. I believe that mothers should nurse their little ones whenever they want to,” states Ivens. She is also a proponent for extended breastfeeding. “Children know when it’s time to wean off. Mothers do too. Strangers don’t know, so they shouldn’t care.”

We all have inherent rights, no matter whether the governing authority of a particular geographical area recognizes it or whether it has been written down on a piece of paper as law. People from different societies and cultures call these rights slightly different things.

In the USA, they have been referred to as “unalienable rights” ever since the 1776 Declaration of Independence. Some call them natural rights to distinguish them from state-granted rights (which are not really rights but rather privileges). Others simply call them human rights.

From a more religious perspective they are called God-given rights. Those who are uncomfortable with the loaded term “God” (because of all the connotations it carries) may prefer intrinsic rights or inherent rights. But, whatever you call them, they are a universal concept. They are a natural extension of ourselves with which we are born, and which we possess just by virtue of being human.

When you try to conform to what others want you to do or be, you are denying your own authenticity. This is incredibly detrimental to your satisfaction with your life because you simply cannot draw to you the perfect matches you desire if you are not emanating your truth. It is an act that is completely disempowering to yourself and will ultimately only end up with resentment and a deep dissatisfaction with your own life.

Expecting others to conform to what you think they should do is expecting them to deny their authenticity. This is incredibly detrimental to their satisfaction with their life because they will never be able to draw to them the perfect matches they desire if they are not emanating their truth. It is an act that is completely disempowering to them and will ultimately only end up with them having resentment for you and a deep dissatisfaction with their life.

Do you see? When will you finally honour the importance of being the expert of your own incarnation? When will you give yourself permission to be the CEO of your own life? When will you honour and encourage others in their complete capability to take the helm of their own lives? You are all the only experts on you, and your souls are hungry for you to share your unique you-ness with the world, beautifully, lovingly, and unabashedly, because that is exactly what you are in the body, and on the planet, to do. ~Archangel Gabriel

Breaking News from the Family of Dr Wayne Dyer:

Wayne has left his body, passing away through the night. He always said he couldn’t wait for this next adventure to begin and had no fear of dying. Our hearts are broken, but we smile to think of how much our scurvy elephant will enjoy the other side.
