Sometimes people will accuse us

Sometimes people will accuse us

Try to abuse us

Blame us for where they are in their lives

Then reject us  

No matter how much we are trying to show them the light

They cannot see the light because they are so blinded by their own fears

Will not see the light because they believe the light is not within their reach

Refuse to see the light because they are so blinded by their own emotions

Their own worries

Their own egos

Keeping them shrouded in doubt

Worry

Isolating them from their own salvation

Their own truths

Their own light

They hold on to these feelings as if they will save them

From the darkness that is threatening to pull them down

Not realizing it is these feelings that are bringing the darkness on

Fuelling the darkness

Stopping them from seeing the light

Preventing them from understanding they are worthy of the light

Are a part of the light

Instead they are attracted to the dark force that wants to keep them hidden

Afraid and feeling helpless

Because the dark forces know once they see the light

They will understand they are more powerful than they imagined

That they can help rather than resist

Sometimes we want to hug people and bring them close

To help to see beyond their fears, worries and emotions

But we know if we do it too soon

They will reject us

Because they do not realize they are rejecting themselves

Sometimes we have to be strong enough to walk away

To allow people to heal before we can invite them back into our lives

If ever

And other times we know we have to stay

Remain with them

Help them as much as we can to see the light

Particularly when we see the light still shining

Dimly way back in their eyes

And all we need to do is be patient

Stay the course until they rediscover the light inside

Until they accept they are worthy of the light

Until they know the light is within their reach

And is not just for those lucky people over there

Until they understand there is no us

And there is no them over there

It is all us

Until they accept they are as much part of the problem

As they are the solution

Sometimes we are drawn to the fire in someone else’s eyes

Because the fire mirrors our own

But we need to be careful we don’t combust

And destroy each other in our ego fuelled quest 

Because sometimes that fire is a disguise of the darkness

Of Ego

Rather than compassion and faith

We always know when we are being asked to examine who we are

And what we are

We always know when we are being asked to help

Rather than hinder

It’s up to all of us to bring forth the best of who we are

Not for recognition

But for reconciliation

Always holding on to the light that allows us to move beyond the darkness

To a place of understanding and faith

To a place of love and forgiveness

To a place of pure and unabiding love and light
