Relationship
Relationship is a single very important word; it is also an extremely important experience that will always be a part of our ongoing existence, relationship is intimately connected to and a part of us. Our first experience with relationship is that of our Sacred Eternal Relationship with SPIRIT, then once we have taken on physical form comes the multitude of relationships we will have while sojourning through this dense physical plane. No matter how we may feel about any given relationship, they are all good because each one of our relationships helps us to return to our one and only true nature, being a Love based Spiritual Being. The most important and grandest relationship we will ever have, is the conscious and oh so awesome relationship we have with our Divine Oneness with MOTHER/FATHER GODDESS/GOD; which is LOVE in ITS highest and most intense vibrational state. As you have probably heard in the past, “God is Love.” Or as I prefer to say, GODDESS/GOD Is LOVE. I always like to give honor to both the Sacred Feminine and the Sacred Masculine Energies of SPIRIT.
There are so many different kinds of relationships that I cannot come close to naming them all. However, the relationships that tend to affect us in the most profound way as we move forward through this lifetime happen to be the intimate Love Relationships we have with our partners and families. One of the major most emotional mistakes we make when it comes to our personal relationships is; we believe that every relationship is supposed to last an entire lifetime. You know what I am talking about, it has been mentioned countless times throughout history; until death do us part. Relationships are seasonal just like everything else that is a part of this physical realm. Nevertheless, sometimes the season of a relationship does span an entire lifetime. The key here is learning how to determine whether or not a season is coming to an end and has reached that end. Because we have not been taught this, we take the end of a relational season as being totally negative in nature, and we get all bent out of shape. That attitude in and of itself, makes what is supposed to be a positive progressive graduation to another level of spiritual awareness, and expansion into a negative hateful, very difficult and unpleasant dark period in our life. If two individuals in an intimate relationship, or a group of individuals in professional relationships could open to their inner spiritual sight and see the change as a blessing to everyone concerned, Love would continue to flow between everyone involved.
It is time that we all take the time needed each day of our lives to slow down and be still, so that we can hear that Still Small Voice within our Spirit telling us it is time to move on in Unconditional Love and appreciation of the person or persons we have been in relationship with. I understand as well as most that it is not easy letting go of someone we truly Love with all of our being. However, as it is taught; if we truly Love someone, sometimes we must release them so that they can move forward and receive blessings and understanding in their life that they can not get being in the current relationship. At that point in time, we must also understand that we are allowing ourselves to move on and make room for new blessings and understanding to come into our lives as well. Where there is and ending, there is always a new expanded beginning awaiting for us to enter into it and take full advantage of it. However, because we are ignorant of the true situation we sidestep our blessings and instead we step into the dark dismal abyss of the illusionary world of abandonment, separation, despair, and loneliness; and we forget that Love is eternally a part of who we are, and whether or not we are in a physical Love relationship, Love never leaves us because Love dwells eternally within our Spirit. The bottom line is this; we are all one just like the many members of our body are one, and when one member is given attention and Loved, the entire body is actually given attention and being Love due to the state of Oneness it is a part of. Therefore, when any relationship has reached its duration and we move on and eventually enter another relationship, everyone is still benefiting from the exchange of Love to the body, in this case I am speaking of the body of humanity by way of our Sacred Oneness.
Relationships can really be intense, as I am sure you already know. Until well into my 40’s I did not come close to understanding relationships as I now do; and even when I started to enter into the reality of this understanding, it took years to do away with my old way of seeing, and the way I was in my intimate Love relationships. I was so entrenched in the wrong concept of relationships that I almost died from depression and despair. I actually got physically sick, and almost died from my faulty belief system and unnatural grip on the Love relationship I had with my ex-wife, the mother of my four children. From not being able to see and understand that our relationship had reached the end of its season, and dwelling on it coming to an end as loosing something that I needed to survive, my life took a serious nosedive into the realm of negative despair. Due to all of the unnecessary stress I allowed into my life, I developed ulcerative colitis, which is the formation of ulcers in the colon, and that caused severe internal bleeding. Actually that condition started in the first years of my marriage, but it was misdiagnosed for seven years. I was stressed out because my ex-wife’s parents did not accept me as being worthy to marry their daughter, due to the fact that I was seven years older than she was, and I had experienced the fast life that some musicians experience. For me that included a drug addition of ten years, however that was a thing of the past. I did not keep my past lifestyle as a secret because I was very proud that I had changed. I am still proud of that because this year I can say that I have 32 years of freedom from drugs, 32 years and not one illegal drug as entered my body. I totally understand my ex-in-laws reaction to me. However, before we got married and throughout our marriage I was stressed out over them never accepting me, and many times doing things against me to show me how they still felt about me. Nevertheless, I still Love my ex-wife and ex-in-laws with all of my heart and understand their fear and concern.
Stress is one of the most unnatural forms of emotional expression, so much so that it can and does cause the death of many people each year. The very bad thing about stress is this; it is the foundation of every disease found in the human body. Stress attacks the weakest part of our bodies and then it manifests as a disease. Stress uses the imbalances we create through our faulty beliefs about how relationship should be. Even though I know this, to this very day I have to be very watchful and careful, because I Love, Love; and I Love being in relationship. When I get overly caught up and busy, and I do not take the time necessary to check myself to make sure that I am completely centered and balance in a spiritually holistic way, I am subject to slip into the state of mind where automatic pilot kicks in, and takes me on an emotional ride reminiscent of past times. That is why it is so important to make sure that I take time each and every day to still myself and feel the presence of The DIVINE within me, Be Still and Know That I Am One With GODDESS/GOD. Our Sacred Alone Time of Prayer and Meditation is essential if we want to maintain a very well rounded and balanced spiritual life. Doing such allows us to hear our Souls Melody. Around the time when I was deathly ill, and my eyes were starting to open to this truth I am now sharing with you, I created an affirmation from two sayings I had heard over the years; Everything’s In Divine Order, and Our Soul Has A Melody. This is what came to me during my time of need for inner spiritual comfort; “Everything Is In Divine Order As I Follow My Souls Melody.” You see; no one has the exact same melody playing within his or her Spirit/Soul. Our melodies may complement each other’s melody and make Beauty-Full music together, just like the different notes in a musical cord complements each other perfectly, yet they are slightly different. So personally when I am in a relationship I must remain conscious of this Divine Reality and carry myself accordingly.
Because of all of my life experiences, which include all of my intimate relationships, I have learned many lessons both difficult and easy; all of which have made me a more understanding and better person. That is why the saying; “all things work together for good to them that Love GODDESS/GOD” is so true. I must point out something that is extremely important here, to Love GODDESS/GOD is to Love me, is to Love you. The bottom line here is this and this alone, you and I are Eternally One With GODDESS/GOD. In addition, if we truly Love ourselves, we cannot be in a state of not completely Loving the Whole of Creation. That means that we Love even those who see, think, and do things differently than we do. Remember, we are different members of the same body; we have different functions yet we flow together in Divine Harmony, that is such a Wonder-Full Blessing. Because of our Oneness with The DIVINE and each other, we are never alone, not even when we are physically by ourselves. That is because our true Higher Spiritual Selves are made up of Pure Spiritual Energy, it is a force of Divine Vibrations. As long as we remember that we are Spiritual Beings going through a physical experience and carry ourselves accordingly, everything will flow as intended; even those not so pleasant experiences.
I seek to experience every relationship that is designed to assist me in what I have termed Total Spiritual Re-Call; entering into the remembrance of who I truly am, a Spiritual Being who is One with GODDESS/GOD and the Whole of Creation. I have accepted that from time to time that means that I may experience growing pains, because when anything is stretched, especially you and me that can be a little painful. However, the big question here is this; what is pain? I believe that pain is this, a vibration that shows us that we have veered a little off of our path, and the prickly bushes lining our path are brushing up against us creating discomfort. That is likened unto us driving down the highway and dosing off a little at the wheel and veering off the road, and the vibration from the shoulder catches our attention; if we do not regain our consciousness, we will experience some real pain, or even death. Everything in this experience we call life is a reflection much deeper than most realize, and everything in life follows a set pattern for the most part, additionally everything in life is governed by seasons.
I Am One With GODDESS/GOD, There Is No Lack In Me,
All of my Needs Are Met Daily Because GODDESS/GOD Dwells In Me,
Now I Can Finally See,
I Have Been Set Free,
I Am Free To Be Me!
