The
crossroads of transformation is where we are at every decision and
choice we make. While we may judge these as being more or less
important, each one has equal power and is a stepping off place for the
next moment in our life. Sometimes our decisions involve priorities,
determine who or what is most important or is deserving of our time and
attention. Do we remember to include our self in that
decision-sometimes that is our lesson and the transformation process
involves learning to take care of ourselves.
Putting ourselves first is selfish and self-serving, as many of us have been taught to believe. So we often put others' needs and desires first and take care of our own when we have the time. Our belief that giving to others will benefit us in the end is partially true. We are here to be of service to others and we can best do that when our own needs are provided for and our energy levels are high because we are not continuously depleting them by giving our energy away.
We can feel guilty asking the question 'what is best for me' when others appear to have greater needs. There will always be someone around us who needs our time and energy. Making ourselves a priority with each decision, asking 'what is best for me' before acting on behalf of someone else keeps our energy levels high and allows us to be of service to others without doing their work for them. And that is the lesson of priorities, allowing others to do their own healing work, being a shining light that teaches them how to light their own inner flame.
We are the pioneers in the Shift in Consciousness. The Lightworkers have created the path to healing and reconnection to Source. Those that follow will use what we have created to find their way to the peace and joy that is heaven on earth. Our task is to empower them with information but they have to do their own work, as we did. This is a journey that requires commitment and willingness, surrender and faith. We can make the process appear effortless to others-they have no idea what we went through to get to where we are. And while it may be tempting to give our energy away, we have to set the priorities, take care of our own needs and know that the best way to teach is to allow another to learn. As we choose, we can remember to consider what is best for us, and make choices that empower us too.
