Return to ME

"Can You Trust Yourself Enough?" It's 2012 and the one lesson I recently learned is to trust what I know. Trust what I know is me without a doubt. Sometimes people call this your intuition, your gut, your personal insight on this feeling. Being able to trust yourself is truly living with the courage to stand in your truth and protecting that which is you. To have enough honor and respect for yourself, to not allow someone else to dishonor your spirit is Life Saving. I came into a situation with a new experience I thought was going to be an answer to a financial challenge I had been going through. I accepted this position with the optimism that it was the one for me. After being there for a little while I started to encounter situations that did not flow with my spirit. It was like everything I was trying to do was going against the grain. But whose grain was it? Was it mine or was it the people I was in this new position with? What I found was that it was a combination of both. It's that feeling when you know that "something does not feel right". I kept being stressed and conflicted about being in this experience. I did not feel supported, encouraged or welcomed into this new journey that I was on. But I chose not to listen and work through everything I knew intuitively that "this was not it". Partly this was because I knew I needed to make this financial arrangement work. But that was my biggest mistake. I approached it from a place of "lack", like I had no other options and was tied to this monetarily. What I know is that the universe will give what you need. If your spirit requests it, it will be delivered but you have to approach it from a place of "have". You have everything you need right now in your life. You just have to trust yourself and trust that spirit will provide. You are not alone and the more you chose to not listen to your personal truth, the further you move away from who you are. It's a resistance you feel within yourself that lets you know you are out of balance with yourself. Sometimes the first place we look when that happens is everywhere else outside of ourselves, but the answer is always in ourselves. It's a hard pill to swallow when it all hits the fan and deep down you hear a voice that said "I knew this was not going to work" but you chose not to listen. So my lesson is follow your truth, stay obedient to who you are and pay attention to the signs when they appear. The signs that are saying you are going the wrong way...trust yourself. But you have to trust in talents, your gifts, your abilities to know that you are worth it and everything you need in your life will be provided. Dare to trust yourself and trust that the divine that is bigger than you always has your back. Stay on your path, follow your heart, trust your instincts, and always HONOR your spirit. Trust the Nature of Your Own Soul. Namaste. ~Maureen
