Learning To Love - BrownEye - 03-20-2013
Yesterday A lot of stressors were thrown in my face to deal with in the workplace. I was aware that this was brought about by entities on the other side of the veil, and eventually took a break to see what I could understand about the whole thing.
Of course there were negative personalities present that were facets of my higher self. Yet, some were negative personalities that are facets of others on this forum. (these are actual identities and not thought forms)
At first my higher self was my mediator with the negatives, but at the end of the day I faced everything they threw at me with a smile. And at the end of the day I decided to communicate with them directly. I was told that I talk too much. I shine light on dark areas that are meant to stay dark for many. Doing this attracts the dark to me and those around me. I told them I am coming to this realization, yet it takes time. This time I received them as equals instead of attacking them or forcing them away by instinct. I did not have any of the fear/anger/disgust in the background of my thoughts or emotions as a response to their presence.
My coworkers were angry that things were going the way they did. They did not understand how I could be so jovial throughout it all.
When I got home my wife was ready to cry. She had been under so much stress the whole day, wondering where the energies came from to make the kids act the way they did, why they were so mean to her, why she felt powerless to change the situation.
We act as if we are alone, and that everyone has to fix their own problems alone. (it's all you dude/ it's all in your head dude) My own actions affected my coworkers and my family. Without even being near them. What affects me can and may affect everything I am connected to. In fact, when something does not affect me directly, it may attempt to do so in an indirect fashion, through others. I have learned the truth of this from the other end, the receiving side of other's problems.
Part of our purpose is responsibility. That is, for ourselves, and for our other-selves. A social memory complex is made up of personalities that fit together in harmony. Much like a Source group. Each personality has its own area of expertise, and as a social group all areas of expertise are covered.
Anyways, this is the first time I have looked at the dark as an equal, and respected their wishes. I asked them to leave because I am all about fun, and people can't have fun around me if they have dark hanging around. I told them that I understand, and will continue to work with this, and possibly work with them instead of only against them. They know that I have the power to forcibly remove them, yet why should I do so.
This morning I sit down and put the pen on the paper. It very quickly wrote "You are learning to love". I instantly knew this was connected to how I dealt with yesterdays situations.

I like how you see past the illusion and look to the heart of the issue. Also, I've learned the hard way how my actions effect those in my life that I seem to think are separate from my actions. My wife will have a bad day and I know immediately it was caused by my actions unbeknownst to her. At work yesterday I had a co-worker upset at me for not being frazzled in stress. My detachment from circumstances bothers those who are. As my mother told me "you don't get stress you give it." I don't give it from any action of mine but by merely remaining accepting of (most) all things and actively driving my life instead of sitting in the passenger seat freaking out about how terrible my wife is at driving. Lol

These are lessons I am learning too. Thank you for sharing pickle!

This is a great experiential illustration of reflexivity and 'looking within' as a way to approach problems/issues. Thank you, Pickle. We all share in this responsibility to become aware of self and others, and how our interactions play out... and then to match that insight with actions that reflect our awareness. Awesome!

My life has had it's share of stress, but usually from my own mental states. I've hallucinated people that weren't really there, and that frightened me. I get so sensitive when things don't go as I expect. I have trouble seeing through the illusion. But I know there is illusion, so that puts me ahead of the game a bit so to speak.

Yesterday, I had a similar situation at my workplace. I've known for quite a while that my workplace is in principle, from just about every angle imaginable, STS in it's methods of operation. Yesterday the boss gave a speech to our department that pretty much made that clear in words which were never spoken out loud by him in such a clear and concise manner. As my direct boss he is as STO as he can be given his position but, it is now clear that because of the system itself, it is time for me to leave this job.
I've learned and grown A LOT in that work environment, but what happened yesterday has shown me that it is time to move into a work environment that is STO at it's core. I am very much looking forward to seeing what my higher self and guides reveal to me as the best options, especially because as I now search for new work, I can still work the job I am at with love and joy...it's just that it was time to understand where this job will be going in the future.
ADDED EDIT:: something humorous about yesterday. At the end of the shift, on the floor by the exit to the building I found a fortune cookie paper that said,
"It takes guts to get out of the ruts"
