“Whatever games are played with us, we must play no games with ourselves, but deal in our privacy with the last honesty and truth.” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
A client came into my office the other day, sat down, looked me in the eye and said, “I think I’m going crazy.” She proceeded to tell me that her intuition, and actions of her partner, are telling her old habits are creeping up again. She has no solid proof that her partner is into his addiction again, but it’s a feeling. She proceeds to tell me that every time she confronts him on it he gets defensive and turns it back around onto her.
When your intuition speaks, it is Spirit knocking at your door, giving you a wake up call. Trust in your own truth and allow self-care to follow. My client and I reviewed her own life lesson she is learning through this difficult time. Most importantly, she is aware that she cannot do the work for her partner or force him to make healthier choices. He has to have his own desire to change and do the work himself, just as my client needs to focus on herself and increase her own strength in making healthy choices. One choice may be getting out of an unhealthy relationship. As she does her own work, and begins the healing process, she will find that she is surrounded by like-minded, like-spirited people. We are all capable of creating our own happiness.
Be truthful with your heart and follow the messages it gives you. When we are honest with ourselves, we honor our purpose here on earth. Nurture the precious being that you are and refuse to allow anyone to abuse your kindness. Create your own world of joy, light and love, and watch it all unfold…
