12. Remembrance
Take it out into the World.
How different is your inner world to your outer one? How often do you leave ideas, thoughts and feelings unsaid?
Our only purpose on Earth is to authentically express our Essence while we’re here. That’s it. That’s all. The only true and real purpose is to live and express in harmony with our Soul Self.
Sounds easy… but fear.
It’s okay. There is always time and all the reasons we fear sharing our authentic Self were learned to keep us feeling safe and loved and wanted and taken care of.
These are not small things.
To reconnect to our life purpose, we need to step out of comfort and safety and take the risk of sharing Self. Today we start with gratitude and appreciation. Take that inner gratitude, that unspoken appreciation and send it out into the world so it can work it’s magick - on others and yourself.
Sending your gratitude out into the world makes room in yourself for gratitude to land in return. Giving makes more room for receiving.
No one teaches us this, but it’s a fundamental law of Creation.
What gratitude and appreciation do you have to share?
The Practice
-
Remember 3 people you know in your life who bring you feelings of love and joy - for WHATEVER reason. The love and joy is the thing.
Write all of them letters - preferably hand-written, then your vibe and “person energy” is all over the message.
Thank them for the joy or love or inspiration or support or whatever that they bring to your life and share with them how much it means to you.
Send your letters. (Really. Send them. There is no point in hoarding your appreciation and gratitude to yourself.)
Sit with any fear or discomfort that arises around sharing your gratitude and appreciation with the people in your world. Sit quietly with the discomfort and listen to what it has to say.
Worship is seeing worth and value in a being. Sharing our joy is gratitude that the world needs from us.
-
Remember 3 strangers (I'm thinking probably writers, artists, actors, singers, celebrities or internet personalities - para-social relationships - but you decide who), in your life that you admire. Think of strangers who bring you feelings of love and joy and inspiration - for whatever reason.
Share with them how they have impacted your life in a positive way.
Share on social media, a DM, an email or leave a comment. Or you could search out a mailing address for fans and send a letter that way.
Don’t assume that no one needs to hear from you. Your positive experience with someone on the planet needs to be shared. It is a benefit for everyone because it shifts our relationship towards gratitude and appreciation.
-
Be aware of events and situations that occur where Beings in the world bring their gratitude and appreciation to you.
Sharing our gratitude with the world is an invitation for the world to feel safe in sharing Their appreciation with us.
Be on the look out for more and obvious appreciation - then send that back out into the world again!
