Letting go of old issues to find wisdom
Sometimes I am so focused on the emotional wound and the sorrow and pain that is attached, it is hard to see the wisdom that is hidden by it. Knowing the emotions or experiences that I have had in the past; all I could do at times is just stick to the emotional wound. Trying to explain, to see with detachment so to speak, to understand. Because that is where my focus lay.
Trying to understand the way human nature functions. What makes us tick, how do we react and how do we respond to others. Love is the easy part; we all are feeling sheltered and taken care of when we are loved. Love myself is at times a different matter. Sometimes more feeling guilty about what has happened because I was told so.
It has been playing inside my head so many times, what had happened and how I still react to the event that took place. The image that came with it, the intense sense of fear as well the physical infliction. My hands were tied, and I had no control over the situation, let alone the outcome. All I knew was the emotional wound that is manifested in my body still, even now. Yet it is a memory of something that happened to me a long time ago.
So, I was presented with a gift as a matter of speech, looking at the real manifestation. To find the wisdom that was beneath it, I had to let go. Not forcing, not working hard to make it so. I had to let it go, as a rock that tumbles in the riverbed created by the flow and force.
I held my breath when it dawned upon me. Yes, beneath the experience of abuse also lies a message and truth, creating a clear view of the event and the ones involved. When innocence has been taken by force, physically, it shows a lack of insight as well as respect. I discovered it was not me who lost my innocence. It was all about power, or at least an image they had about power.
Yet the amount of force they had to use to empower, shows how little respect and self-worth, let alone self-love existed. It dawned on me, that even though I was a victim of the abuse, I was not the one inflicting it on myself. I did not lose my innocence, for I am more than just a body. I am a spark of light and love, which couldn't be destroyed.
Truth is, the one who is no longer connected with this light and love inside, lost a lot more. They lost their innocence, respect for life as well the ability to have compassion, kindness, and empathy. I understand the impact this has on their soul. It is way harder to regain that core connection when you are separated from it. I did not lose my connection, although I had a difficult time dealing with the consequences.
I still feel love, compassion, and kindness. Not just for other people, but also for myself. My truth did not get damaged by this brutal attack. They lost more than just their dignity. If you can only create a life by fear, domination, brutal physical attacks, as well by manipulation to feel stronger, then there is a lack of love.
So every experience I came across through lifetimes expressing this attack on my innocence as a soul, there was always the opposite to be learned. How can I have compassion and love for my oppressors, while they are not showing any kind of those elements that relates to the heart, we call love.
So, all the time I hold on to these disturbing emotional wounds, it has an impact on me as well. Can I change the situation, no? Do I have control over them, no? These are the key emotions that are draining my energy wise, as well as bringing up the need and will to change and have control again.
We all know this mechanism, that what we do not have, we want. In releasing and healing, it is about letting go of the elements we cannot change, nor have any control over. So, if we let go, what will remain? Some might believe that it will not change any about the situation itself. Yet I feel and realize, that by letting go, the potential of learning and seeing the truth. Because if we hold on to the pain, sorrow, anger, and maybe even hate, we still are feeling stuck and not able to move forward.
I have tried this numerous times, by working hard, by forcing myself to let go. Only to discover, the only way I really can let go, is to let it happen. Intent to release and then let it happen. It feels against all we needed, control, and change if we let it happen. Yet truth is, we can undergo and let it happen, without being the guilty one, the one who is ashamed or abused by default.
We gain wisdom through the process of letting go of the act, without holding on in any way, shape, or form. Because it does not serve any purpose for my highest good. Honoring my emotions as well as all the negativity that relates to it, I can let go through love and compassion. First and foremost, to myself, releasing the image of control or lack of it. Then I can see the wisdom and message that comes with it.
Whenever I lack control in a situation, it is not about control. I can always change. I can always believe in the higher good and nature of mankind. Not only that, but I can always love myself as well as anyone else because it is my choice. Furthermore, I can change any outcome for my benefit if I stay connected with my true inner nature, my loving heart, and soul.
My challenge may have been extreme and intense in many ways. On emotional, physical, mental, and energetic levels. Yet, if I am connected with love and live my life from that perspective, I am no victim of defeat. Defeat is not part of my lesson in this. Defeat is inherent to those who have lost their connection with love.
They lost more than just their self-worth. They lost their innocence and self-love. This is causing a deep internal trauma within, as it comes from deep trauma within. When you lose your trust and believe in love, you lose life itself. So how can I not have compassion and love for those who are so lost and disconnected from their inner self?
And so it is
