I’m very much feeling the intensity of the energies today and therefore had no intention of writing but my higher Self had other ideas… I don’t know where this conversation is going, but let’s see…

First of all let me say that this week has been another one of those tough weeks where we are once more shown in our ‘Book of Shadows’ what it is that is causing us to be less than perfectly at peace and in joy, in other words unhappy.

I’ve also had perfect confirmation again this week that people who rock your boat or cause you to lose your equilibrium are the ones who are holding up the proverbial mirror to help you SEE something about yourself you’re not acknowledging or not completely loving and accepting about yourself.

Okay, so I realized this week I had another flaw…. One that I hadn’t realized I possessed. And the knowing of this upset.

Why?

Because I dislike being critical.

I know, but why?

Because I shouldn’t be.

Why not?

Because I have no right to be when I myself am not perfect.

Who says you’re not perfect?

I do.

Aha! So you think you should be perfect?

Yes of course! Isn’t that what we’re striving for here?

No, not at all.

Okay, let me ask you something if I may… If you found a really exquisite (and expensive) vase but it had a rather large crack in it, would you buy it? Would you invest (your time and money) in it?

If I thought it was worth it, of course I would!

Why? Why would you spend money on a vase you couldn’t even use??
