Some people are really sent to try us. To irritate us to no
end. To make us question whether we are on the right track or if we need to
backtrack. And what we determine about these people is that they come because they
are seeking something that we have but can’t admit it. So they try to make us second
guess ourselves. They try to steal our dreams. Try to make us lose self
confidence.
But what we have to come to realize is there is a part
of us that is allowing them in. Allowing them to chip away at our self confidence.
Allowing them to destroy our dreams because there is no one that can sabotage
us unless we allow them in. Remembering
always that nothing happens to us. Rather everything happens for us. And when
we get that message, those people and their steady attempts to derail us will disappear
into thin air. Because we realize that’s what they are - thin air. Illusions of
our shadows selves.
Thin air desperate to be in the spot light. Thin air trying desperately
to deflect away from their own shortcomings. But in doing all the things they
do to us in an attempt to make us weaker, if we are honest enough, willing enough
to confront our own demons as a result of their actions, we soon realize what
they are doing will ultimately make us stronger. Bring us closer to our essence
selves via their short cut trials. Because their actions allow us the ability
to examine the places we are allowing them in. To come face to face with the insecurities
allowing cracks to appear to let them into our minds. To our dreams. Dream stealers I call them.
But when we step back and observe them from a place deep
within ourselves, what we realize is these dream stealers are actually gifts to
us. Hard as it is to admit, they help to free us from our own self limitations.
From our own traits that will eventually pull us down.
These people help to liberate us from our own self sabotage by helping us
to face our own demons. Much quicker than we would have had they not come to
challenge us. And when they keep coming over and over again. Relentlessly as we
keep getting stronger and stronger. No longer as fazed by their attempts, they
become stronger in their actions. Desperately trying to gain control over our
minds again. Refusing to let go of the grip they think they have over us.
It’s then that we need to surrender to their attempts.
Surrender them back to the Universe by thanking them for helping us to see who
we and who we are not. Thanking them silently in our minds by giving ourselves
permission to move on to the next step in our growth.
Learning always, those that criticize the loudest do so because
they are so afraid of self examination that they need someone else to blame for
where they are in their lives. People who continuously find fault in others are often seeing their own faults magnified to the nth degree. Whereas people who compliment
and encourage do so from a place within that allows them to know there is
more than enough to go around in this world. They know they don’t have to lie, cheat
and sabotage others in order for them to gain.
When we share rather than take, we grow that much more.
Enabling the pot of gold to grow because we understand when just one person
gains, we allow more abundance in the world. Which in turn, ultimately allows
that much more for everyone including us.
And sometimes we only receive the gifts of abundance in the most unexpected way. From the very dream stealers who think they are derailing us when in essence they are freeing us. Liberating us to be even more compassionate, strong and capable of becoming our dreams with love and light. From their lesson we are taught we are the controllers of our destiny through what we believe and who we are. Not who they wish us to be. Pushing us to be more of who we are. Less of who we are not.
