Recently I've had this nagging little π sitting on my shoulder, saying you're too lighthearted, you need to take life more seriously and be more responsible and less care free. For those who know me, you'll know that humour is one of my favourite playgrounds, but I started to wonder if I was rather playing hide and seek there or using it as a tool of avoidance or deflection.
A few minutes ago I heard an all familiar saying ... And God said "Let there be light".
There are so many ways to extrapolate this but one of them being ... Let humanity realise that you're Light Beings, not just meat-suit people.
Another being ... Let there be lightness and not so much seriousness (and as we know it ... higher vibration, not dense low vibe emotions).
And focus on rejoicing the light in people, which helps get rid of their shadow.
Lightness not just in the literal sense, but metaphorically...
And the π‘ went on π. I hate using this sort of terminology, but I've mostly considered myself a Lightworker ππ«, so why am I trying to be something else I think I "should" be or "shouldn't" be?
We've been conditioned to repress and suppress our emotions from early on. When a child cries, they are met with ... "why are you crying?" or "stop crying". And I personally suppressed my emotions most of my life, which got me in a lot of π©.
So I love to laugh (a lot!). I find gratitude vitally important for my wellbeing and I choose to be positive, rather than negative. When I do have negative emotions, I've learned to meet them with love and awareness and not make them "wrong", but integrate them as part of me ... I am not perfect. No one is and the concept doesn't actually exist, because it's a judgement, which I sadly used to chase for much of my life. They are just emotions and it's what you do with or about them that counts.
Since Mom passed away, people ask me how I am and I've almost felt guilty for saying that I'm totally fine, happy and at peace. It's as though many are expecting me to be in a puddle of grief, not ever having happy thoughts or feeling joy. Yes, I miss her and I am grieving her physical presence in this realm, but I am still me ... that hasn't changed and I haven't lost her.
So the point of my message is ... don't ever change who you really are, because you were made perfectly just the way you are and have a purpose, whether you know it or not.
And I am no longer going to judge myself for being too bouncy, funny, expressive or light-hearted. I still feel like a kid at heart and love to play, dance, sing and be silly and one day Danny, I'll actually meet the π§ββοΈπ§ββοΈ, when Spring arrives and I can properly build my fairy garden π.
I can get really serious if having an intellectual convo, but my default setting when communicating is humour and playfulness.
I realised that again, it was just my thoughts trying to tell me I should be like other "normal" people I see around me. It's merely my perception of them and my own of myself falling off the rails for a hot minute. I don't live in a spiritual community at all, so everyone around me appears way too serious and down on life π.
I embrace myself just the way I am and have put those judgemental thoughts of myself back in the box. They can play with each other.
Just do you boo! π€ππ»ππ«β¨οΈπ
