Have you ever had a time in your life where everything just feels kind of off? I am talking about times when the following questions (or those with a similar vibe) swirl throughout your mind:
- Is this all that there is?
- Why do people do things like this?
- Why am I so fearful?
- Why is so hard for me to get out of bed every day?
- What is it that leaves me feeling so empty?
It is not unusual for a highly conscious person, such as yourself, to experience these types of questions.
Whether you are in a job that you hate, you feel trapped in a marriage that has run its course, you are a beacon for drama, or you feel powerless to break free of certain situations, what do you feel truly stops you from making a change?
Whatever your reason, I would say that it usually comes down to choosing fear over love.
And what is especially sinister about this is that often times your mind will fool you into believing that your fear-based choice is really a love-based choice.
This is an illusion.
An illusion is something that appears to be true, but when it comes down to it, it is not true at all. The following is an example of how an illusion in action:
Let’s say that you choose to settle or tolerate certain relationship dynamics or situations because you do not want to “disturb the peace.” You tell yourself that you are doing what you need to do because you do not want to upset others. Maybe you even feel like that the other people involved need you.
If this sounds at all familiar, I urge you to look deep within your heart and ask yourself: what am I really afraid of?
And regardless of your answer, I can promise you that the real reason has nothing to do with upsetting others or disturbing the peace. Even though you think you might be avoiding drama by keeping things as they are (settling for status quo) and not rocking the boat, you are hurting yourself each day you make this fear-based choice.
How much longer will go on settling?
How much longer will you tell yourself that you are fine with being in a relationship that has run its course?
How much longer will you tell yourself that you prefer being single when really and truly you would love to have a partner to co-create with and experience intimate and passionate love with?
If your heart is open and ready for transformation, then please: I urge you to give yourself permission to go for it. Why? Because you are worth having a life that you love and having an intimate relationship that reflects your soul’s true essence!
When you choose love, you magnetize love to you and everybody wins! (It’s universal law!)
The love renegade in me sees and honors the love renegade in you.
Namaste,
Lauren
