Ever Take Things Personally

“It’s not about you. It never was. It never will be.”
~ Jennifer Hough

Dear You:

The other day someone that I love was so angry and it seemed to be directed right at me. But I knew it wasn’t about me and at the same time it sure looked that way.

I know that when I take something personally, it’s only because I’m judging myself for exactly what the other person is judging me about. Sometimes it’s not even their judgment, it’s actually my interpretation.

All I know is that whatever is going on with the other person is about them. Just the same as whatever is going on with me is about my past. In the end, if one of us can get to neutrality and compassion about ourselves or the other, we not only free ourselves, but that same compassion and love frees the other.

You can trust one thing; that there’s no such thing as a perfect person. Expecting anything else will result in a lot of upset in your life.

You just have to decide whether you’re committed to protecting yourself by holding others in judgement or being the cause for more love in the world by healing your own heart, and then sharing your heart with others.

Love you!

P.S. I just stayed neutral as the other person decided to walk away and get back in their heart. Of course it all ended in a big hug. Sometimes it takes an hour and sometimes it can take a year. Are you willing to leave the time and space for love to win?

‘Or betters’ present frequently when we simply remember ourselves as the embodied intention of everything we’ve ever lived in any life. They manifest when we remember our free will to choose, realizing our trajectory is the result of every past life, every desire, and every prayer you have ever prayed.

‘Or betters’ happen when you live like control is overrated. Understanding the resources of the omnipotent and omniscient Creation will deliver for you so far beyond anything your lovely (please don’t hate me) pea brain can intend is key. Your brain only accesses your history, the programs you learnt in school and paradigms you’ve created through the years, and who wants to ‘rinse and repeat’ that again?

Your greater Wisdom is constantly dancing with the trajectory you are on. You’re a living intention, without ever needing to use your brain to intend. Infinite Wisdom is in a dance with you, responding to your every thought and, perhaps ever more, to your actions. It’s responding to your life’s purpose. The thing is, you can’t mentally intend your way to an awesome life.

My two favorite words…

When our actions resonate with our purpose and we’re aligned with the Universe’s potential for us, it’s such an expansive feeling.

The feeling of expansiveness validates you are in flow.

The alignment with greater wisdom is translated through our body as feelings of ‘woo hoo’, ‘yes!’, goosebumps, or fun! It’s confirmation that we’re acting and thinking in line with our ‘highest and best’ life, using our skills and personality, creating in the most aligned way.

Being Happy 101

Apr 23, 2024

Being Happy 101 – With the next Flight School (our nine-month program) about to start, I’m aware of some pretty powerful insights about my own life, ten of them in fact!

One: Reacting to circumstances definitely leads to drama. Drama always takes me out of my knowing, distracting me from my connection with Innate Wisdom.

Two: My happiness absolutely cannot come from circumstances changing. My happiness must be accessible, regardless of circumstances. It cannot be dependent on how the world is, how the people in my life behave, or an expectation that everything should be perfect. Everything is becoming which, by definition, means it isn’t perfect.

Three: It’s not my job to carry the weight of the world. My job is to show up in love and compassion. It’s not my job to make other people happy but rather to learn to be grounded in my heart. It’s not my job to protect my heart but to emanate from the heart.
