Choosing to Suffer...

There is an exercise that I use in teaching explains that
there are 2 kinds of energy- Light and Dark.

We have given these energies labels like good and bad....
God and Evil.
No matter what you call them they are still Light and Dark.

Light is light; you have to reach for it
and Dark is heavy;it pulls you down.

Light is Accountable and Dark Blames.
Light 'gives' and Dark 'takes'.

Light -- Dark

Love -- Hate
Peace -- Chaos/Drama
Joy -- Sadness/Misery
Service -- Selfishness
Accountability/ownership -- Blame/Victim
Faith -- Fear
Compassion -- Judgment

Another way to picture it is Light flows outward- and Dark is like a vacuum- it sucks.
This is why when we are in a good mood- it can be ruined by someone in a dark place in an instant. The dark energy drains us and we own it and allow it and they go away feeling better.
There are people who cannot create their own happiness and are addicted to taking- stealing- energy from others to fill their dark hole.

If we are accountable to our Lives- and see that we make a choice to be in the darkness- we can free ourselves and then set a boundary with others; reminding them that they are creating the suffering.

If they hear the message and want to apply it that is up to them- but if they don't they will soon look for someone else to take energy from and will think twice before they come to you looking for a 'fill'.

So....what side of the road are we operating from?

Be a light spreader-
Let your little light shine!!!!
