I’m like everyone else.\u00a0 The Universe is sending me messages all the time but I’m not always in the receiving mode, so I don’t always “get it.”\u00a0 Only when it comes back around again and again and again in the form of different people do I finally drop my blinders and begin to see what’s been playing out in front of me.\u00a0 I have to laugh at my own blindness because it reminds me to be more aware in each moment.\u00a0 That every moment contains so much more than I can quickly grasp, unless I’m paying attention.\u00a0 And, as it turns out,\u00a0 that’s what it’s all about.\u00a0 Paying attention in each moment.<\/p>\n
In Coconut Grove, FL in the 70’s, I had several friends who owned businesses and boutiques in the trendy part of town.\u00a0 Now and again, jealousies would flare and mutual friends would feel forced to side with one or the other.\u00a0 That caused more division.\u00a0 Pretty soon our happy little group was no more, the businesses no longer existed and that was the end of that.<\/p>\n
When I worked at law offices in One Biscayne Tower in downtown Miami in the 70’s and 80’s, the same thing would happen.\u00a0 An attorney would leave to go with another firm or begin his own firm in the same building.\u00a0 The partnership would be dissolved, employees would be split and again we’d have to choose sides.\u00a0\u00a0 Often times there was animosity between the former partners, or at least on the part of the one who felt injured by it.\u00a0 Often I’d be working for the one who became more successful and gloated about it and rubbed the other’s nose in it every chance they could and I had to watch that.\u00a0 More division, more splitting.<\/p>\n
After I’d moved to Melbourne, FL, in the late 80’s and early 90’s there were several weekly metaphysical discussion groups that a group of us all attended.\u00a0 Then it began to be all about electing officers and holding office and then there was infighting and again the taking of sides.\u00a0 But this time it began to dawn on me.\u00a0 It was like the whole karmic clusterf*ck all over again, but this time I began to see it for what it was.<\/p>\n
Just in the past ten years, I’ve had several friends open and close businesses due to partnership dispute.\u00a0 I’ve seen them move their store from location to location to location and alienate former landlords due to nonpayment.\u00a0\u00a0 As a store owner\/operator, Domino<\/a> doesn’t understand why she can’t sell anything even when she’s in a good location.\u00a0 She doesn’t understand that you can’t cheat your landlord and expect money to flow to you, it’s all related<\/a>.\u00a0 You can’t lie and gossip about a former partner and expect clients to come pouring in.\u00a0 You are not a vibrational match to it.\u00a0 It’s like the radio station you can’t quite get tuned to.\u00a0 You’re close, but can’t\u00a0 really get it.<\/p>\n The Universe throws us together face to face to work on ourselves and if we’re smart, we see ourselves reflected in those around us.\u00a0 They are in our life because we vibrate in harmony with them.\u00a0 But so often we don’t see that, we wonder what we’re doing around all these\u00a0 stupid, thoughtless people.\u00a0 We think we have lessons to teach them when in fact we are the ones needing to get over ourselves and listen and learn.\u00a0 It is not about choosing sides and which one is really my friend here?<\/em> It’s about not taking on unnecessary karmic baggage that will impact other areas of your life and will keep you from attracting the very things you want to attract.<\/p>\n If you’re speaking about someone else with the intent to alienate them from mutual friends, know that you’re not a vibrational match to attracting anything but lack and limitation to yourself.\u00a0 If you’re throwing up roadblocks for anyone else, you can expect them to come back to you many times over.\u00a0 And if you’re praying for harm to come to someone or their business,\u00a0 you can expect that to come back to you many times over as well.\u00a0 Trust me, you don’t want to be a vibrational match to what that will attract.\u00a0 Oh, too late, you already know?\u00a0 ‘Nuff said! When you badmouth anyone, it’s always a jealousy issue on some level.\u00a0 It’s always that you feel they are taking something away from you.\u00a0 It’s usually that you think they are not entitled to the business or income or benefits they receive and their customers would be better served by you.\u00a0 These are simply signs of\u00a0 first and second chakra imbalances. <\/a> These imbalances can be remedied\u00a0 by making amends to those you’ve injured in the past, and learning to appreciate without expectations.\u00a0 Sound unrelated? \u00a0 It’s not.<\/p>\n The best thing for you to do, if you have a negative emotion when you think of ANY person or any business of theirs, is to say a prayer that the heaviness in your heart be dissipated as you send (this person) into the light where they will continue to grow and prosper.\u00a0\u00a0 Wish for them what you wish for yourself.\u00a0 There but for the grace of God go I<\/em>.\u00a0 Do the Ho’oponopono healing process <\/a>on them.<\/p>\n Do it twice a day if you have to.\u00a0 It’ll feel a little better each time.\u00a0 By the 10th time or so, you’ll start to get some insights about the situation, and it’s good food for thought. Just like me, this person has known sadness and loneliness and just like me they would like some happiness in their life.\u00a0 Just like me they are learning about life and if I can feel a moment’s compassion for them, it helps me and it helps anyone who’s ever felt this way or will ever feel this way again. <\/em><\/p>\n Doing this exercise always helps me transmute my feelings on a situation each time one arises.\u00a0 And when I transmute my feelings, I’ve transmuted my point of attraction.\u00a0 And when I’ve changed my point of attraction and released resistance, my phone will begin to ring, my business will begin to thrive, I will run into the most interesting, fun people and business opportunities will appear out of the thin air.<\/p>\n When I can think of any one and any thing and smile at the situation and bless them and let it go with no emotional resistance from me, that’s my signpost that the floodgates of goodness and dollars are about to pour.\u00a0\u00a0 And yes,\u00a0 it’s also a sign of emotional maturity.\u00a0 Finally I’m growing up.<\/p>\n .
