Birds of a feather flock together. Yet, this doesn’t mean they can’t live within the same trees and enjoy the songs of each other without fighting.
The key is understanding that words are vibrations of sound and when matched with our emotions create an energy that can create a vibration of clarity or discord which can lead to unity, allowing or separation between people, groups or nations.
Yesterday, I had a conversation with someone which became a teaching lesson for my higher self and guides. The key being words are vibrations brings about the lesson of living from a place of mindfulness before speaking, and the energy or vibration of love present with the words spoken.
Out of our conversation, the key for my teachers were the words or the way in which I expressed them that we had about 3 individuals upon which we had differing perspectives. For instance, my strongest spiritual gift is empathic or feeling energies. I walk into a room or meet someone and I realize immediately if they are a person whom I can trust their spoken words and actions to align. I don’t need to agree about everything to like a person but to trust them I have to feel comfortable energetically with them part of being an empath.
So I might say I don’t like that person, when in reality the person themselves I am neutral about. It is the energy surrounding them that is not compatible to me and thus I don’t in reality feel comfortable with their energy or words. Until I know them better, I am cautious of the words they speak for they may not align with the energy they project. However, I said I didn’t like one of the people that came up in our conversation. I really meant I didn’t trust or feel comfortable that their energy and words were aligning, and that is what I should have said. To be clear in my words and energy aligning.
The other factor in this is that because I don’t feel comfortable about a person and their energy doesn’t make the person bad nor does it mean that the other person with whom I am speaking has something wrong with them or their feelings about this person when they like and trust them. It simply means that they have a different path of experience from me. Their path is not wrong and mine right or vice versa. It simply means we have made differing choices about certain focuses and experiences in this life to aid us in our spiritual journey. We can be like the different species of birds and live in the same trees and enjoy our different songs or if we don’t like the songs, fly to another location. Perhaps later after they finish their song, we will all be back in the same tree.
The key along the way is acting in our authentic self and truth and not at the direction or behest of others or based on domesticated beliefs. We can stand in love and shine our light in compassion for others and want the highest good for all, while allowing that others may not have the same focus and desires as ourselves.
Whether as a parent or from our own youthful experiences we all remember times when in trying to prevent someone we care about from being hurt but, we could not. No matter what we said, or what we were told – One simply had to put their finger in the flame and experience the pain of being burnt to find the wisdom of the words of caution.
In writing this I am not saying I was right in my conversation with the other person and they were wrong. I am saying that the experience and interactions they chose were not the same as the ones I have chosen. There choices fit their needs and experiences and my choices fit mine. We can share, laugh and enjoy each others company without anger or verbal shouting by realizing we are all simply experiencing this matrix of experience that will fade in an instant by our next choice. Too often war, hatred and violence starts because one feels they need to force their thoughts and feelings on another as being right.
I learned from my guides to be more mindful in the way in which I express what I am feeling so that it is clear and aligned with my intent. My intent is not judgment of the person(s) we were discussing as bad people, or that liking them makes my friend bad or me good. This had no part in my feelings about the person(s) simply an observation about what I felt and understood as right for me. However, had the discussion been with another person it could have created a very uncomfortable situation in the moment and moving forward in our interactions.
Thus, I am thankful for the loving and open understanding , character and interactions of this person in listening to my words and not reacting. I have been shown how I need to be more mindful before speaking to bring clarity to my words and a more loving vibration with them. Often I may choose not to speak to prevent any negative interactions, but I have been told that we need to speak our truth as guided making it clear do not judge another for feeling, believing or speaking differently.
I was reminded this morning of WWII and the fact that in the world most people did not understand how the people of Germany could so blindly follow Hitler. They were not bad people. What was it they needed to experience that caused them to follow his path. What was the vibrational need that caused them to come together. Was there a lesson for all humanity in this war? Unless we lived there and walked in their shoes, we may not know or understand. I am not comparing those times to today, but simply using an obvious example of how we make different choices. It is in not understanding another’s choices or needs, or allowing them to have differing choices, that wars can begin which cause pain and separation even between families.
The same can be said for any war or disagreement. Would the same people make the same choice today after having been through the war and its results? Does it come back to words spoken that were misunderstood, or choices based on needs and desires that differ.
Because another makes a different choice different from what I would make, doesn’t mean I would not care about them and help them if they were in need. It also doesn’t mean I have to agree with them or support their choice, only that I believe they have the right to make their choices the same as I do and experience the results of that choice. In any situation of differing choices there are multiple outcomes, which change by the second based on the choices of all individuals involved.
If we simply stand in our truth with love and compassion and are open to new and higher understanding that presents our path forward to freedom. Allow always that our truth of the moment is relative to our experiences and beliefs. When we are on a path of spiritual awakening to higher wisdom, we are open to realizing that the truth we held a moment ago may be altered to understand from a higher universal perspective. We need to not hold on so tightly to what we feel is truth and to ask and seek always to be shown the highest good for all and live with love and compassion for all.
We create by our thoughts. When we speak or act upon our thoughts that brings them into materialization. That is why this teaching was important to see how words need to be aligned with our feelings at a pure level that brings a unifying instead of a dividing energy between people. One word misspoken in anger, fear, or without thought of its affect on another can divide a family or nation.
So, personally I am thankful to my friend for their loving understanding and allowing for my words and the lesson I have learned to a deeper level. We had spoken about the layers of an onion in learning in our conversation. How we may think we have learned and cleared something and yet it surfaces again, another layer of the onion to be removed. This was an instant karma learning of that for me. I thought I had learned to be mindful and I realized yesterday, there was still another layer to that onion to be removed. So, I am grateful for the lesson and the friend who helped me to remove that layer with love, light and compassion.
I hope this may help another along their path.
