You’re that Special Someone that makes me want to give it!!!

 

Goldfish
Only give out what you would like to receive back for this is one of the most fundamental Universal Laws.           Paulette De-Har

These are the lyrics in the song titled The Giver (Reprise) by Duke Dumont.

 

Although we never came forward into this Physical life for sameness and for everything to be exactly as we are wanting…. We did come to have different experiences and to learn how to control and deliberately focus our thoughts and feelings to create the life we’re really wanting. To feel the excitement of moving towards something and achieving a goal we have set down for ourselves. That truth may not have us jumping for joy, especially if we feel we have not received nearly as much as we’ve wanted to in our lives so far.

When dealing with others, this is always a balance of giving and taking, for this is the way of this Physical world we live in. The question is, are we aware of the thoughts and emotions we are sending out and therefore what we are receiving back vibrationally???

When we have any type of interaction with any other we are always giving and receiving something vibrationally from each other whether we are aware of it or not. Good feeling positive interactions indicate the participants are in a similar general vibrational place in regard to whatever they are talking about and are both giving out good positive thoughts and emotions to each other. Not good feeling negative interactions indicate participants are also in a similar vibrational place but are giving out negative thoughts and emotions to the other and are probably having a less than enjoyable time……Unless of course, we have come to enjoy negative, not nice communication with others??? (That’s a whole different post!!!)

Obviously most love good feeling, happy, enjoyable interactions, but even when we sit in a very good feeling General Vibrational Place most of the time, we will still come up against unwanted interactions with others for many different reasons. Whatever those reasons may be, the best action we can take when faced with someone giving or trying to pass their negative energy onto us is to resist giving it back.
This can be hard to achieve and almost goes against the Laws of the Universe of “One will receive back what one has given out,” but can be achieved when we are focused and believing in our ability to react calmly and positively or to walk away rather than engage in a way that is not consistent with who we really are.

This by no means is a reason to let people walk all over us and doesn’t mean we should not be assertive and stand up for ourselves when we feel the need too, but it is a very good idea to do it from a positive vibrational place. Whether we speak up in such circumstances will depend on what we feel is best at the time, and will usually be an action that we believe will help us to feel better.

If we do react negatively, it’s easy to give the excuse “well they deserved it,” and for sure that’s often true, but people give out this not niceness because of resistance that’s within them, resistance that has often been received from others and through their own focus on what is not wanted without knowing they have the ability to remove it by making an effort to feel better and by focusing on what they are wanting rather than focusing and barking at everything they are not wanting. When resistance in the form of negative beliefs, thoughts and feelings are not moved into better feeling places through our own deliberate effort and focus, it’s only a matter of time before the need to pass that resistance onto others happens.

This is an attempt to remove the heaviness that comes with unresolved negative energy within the mind and body but this can never truly work because even if one does feel better after doing this, we will again receive back this negative energy as the Law of Attraction sends us matching vibrational signals to what we’ve sent out in the form of people, places and events.

So the moral of the story is….

~ Resist letting others pass their negative thoughts and emotions on by not responding back in the same manner as them. If we do lash out, we have allowed our vibration and how we feel to be dictated by someone else…..And that’s not good.
~ If we feel the need to respond, take a minute if possible to get into the best feeling place we have access too at that time.
~ Walk away rather than give back more negative energy and feel great for exercising deliberate power over how you feel and how you have reacted under trying circumstances.                                                                                                    ~And above all other things…..Make an effort to think, speak and act more about what you are wanting rather than what you are not wanting, and treat others in a way you yourself would like to be treated…..And all good things must eventually follow!!!

And so they will…..

Don’t Blame it on me!!!

DuckPond
These are lyrics from the recent awesome song Blame, by Calvin Harris featuring John Newman.

If I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard someone utter, “Don’t blame me,” or “It’s not my fault”….I would totally be rich!! Hehehe

Although there are very real consequences that come from the actions we and others take, if we’re starting to understand we are the creators of our own life experiences and that we create those life experiences through our own focused thoughts and attention…..One must come to the realisation that blaming others for circumstances that have manifested in our lives is a futile and counter productive endeavour.

It doesn’t mean that blaming others is wrong. It’s not really a matter of right or wrong but more a matter of, does blaming others move us in a direction we are wanting to go in or is it moving us in a direction of something we are not wanting to experience??? (Law of Attraction)

If blaming others feels good, this is because we are moving into a better feeling vibrational place than we were currently in before we choose to blame. In other words, moving from a less powerful place to a more empowered place which is a natural and good occurrence. This is our natural tendency and desire to feel as good as we possibly can at any given moment in time.

So blame can be a good short-term place for us to be in as long as we don’t get stuck there for too long. It’s quite a strong negative emotional place to be in and does draw unwanted circumstances if we allow ourselves to stay there without making the effort to move vibrationally.

I like to think of it as a bit of a balancing act between taking responsibility in a positive way for what comes into our experience and acknowledging that everyone is in different vibrational places that we don’t have control over. It’s virtually impossible to remember every thought and feeling we’ve had to every circumstance we’ve experienced in the past, so these small unwanted occurrences can be a good opportunity to move into a better vibrational place on something we might not have been previously aware we had a vibration about.

It’s difficult not to blame when we feel someone has done something with the intention to hurt us, and this does take some time and effort to move to a better vibrational place about, but it is important to do if we want to create improved circumstances in our future experiences.
If we do find ourselves in situations where others are intentionally being unkind, it’s a good idea to walk away, but if we feel we must stand up and say something, speak as calmly and emotionally neutral as possible being prepared to walk away if they want to argue.
It’s also good to remember that how others behave is more about who they are currently being, rather than it is about who we are currently being.
I do not say this in a negative or revengeful emotional way but more as a statement of fact and Universal Law…. If those that are intentionally being unkind to others knew that they would eventually receive back that which they have originally given out, they would not be doing such things….

Focusing as much as possible on the aspects in our lives that are good and on what we are wanting in a positive way is a great way to receive more of what we love and are wanting…..And I say, “That is so Awesome!!”

And so it is….

Shake it off….You go girl!!!

B&WSahara
I don’t usually like to talk about famous people, because many of the negative opinions people hold toward others that are well-known are based on gossip that whether it’s true or not, is not very nice. Although we all have our own opinions on what we hear and see, it’s not possible to truly know whats going on within someone else, so it’s a futile exercise to speculate about it, and it just doesn’t feel good to me to do it, so mostly I don’t do it!!
When making judgements about others, especially negative judgements, it can be helpful to consider the following;

~Unfortunately we live in a time where many find it entertaining to portray others in difficult, embarrassing, and compromising circumstances, which strongly indicates where a person generally is and who they’re currently being if they gain enjoyment from other people’s misfortune.
~Strong negative contemplation of those doing well in their chosen field and that have become well-known for it, often comes from being in a very resistant vibrational place of jealousy and judgement, jealousy of those that appear to have gained notoriety and success in some way….Maybe things we wish we had for ourselves???
~Outrageous allegations sell magazines and newspapers, and it would be rather naive to believe everything we hear or read, and in this digital age, pictures or video either. If one has a mind to portray someone in a certain way whether it be positive or negative, they will find a way to do it, whether it’s true or not!! (What’s the truth got to do with it???) Unless we observe something as it happens it’s all here-say, and even then it’s open to interpretation.
~One thing I’ll say about all of this is, if people knew what they were really doing when they’re speaking not nicely about others, they would not be doing it!!(Law of Attraction!!)

Back to the title, Shake it off is a new song by Taylor Swift, and the “You go girl,” you probably already know is not part of the song, that’s just me appreciating everything she’s saying in it!!!

Before this song came out, I wasn’t exactly a Taylor Swift fan because it wasn’t really my type of music with many resistant type lyrics about dating and boyfriend troubles, subjects that aren’t important to me and are far away from my life experience. But I have to say I’m loving this new song and have found a deeper understanding and respect for what must be a difficult road to navigate for someone so young.
Although I do love to see people doing well, I especially notice when young ones do well because it’s a very good indication they’ve managed to stay true to who they really are. Remaining true to oneself isn’t always easy when surrounded by others that are trying to guide us in a direction they feel is best based on their experiences and desires, but can often be in opposition to the internal guidance we are receiving based on our experiences and desires. It’s not that good guidance can’t be received from others apart from ourselves, it can, but it depends largely on the vibrational place the advice giver is coming from.

It feels like this song speaks to the truth that people are going to say and do whatever they like for their own reasons which is far more of an indication about who they are rather than who they’re talking about is, and the best thing we can do is to know that and just “shake it off” so to speak, and not let them bring us down to a resistant vibrational place.

Some may disagree and say just because someone is gossiping and enjoying someone else’s misfortune doesn’t necessarily mean they’re in a not good feeling vibrational place….(I’m not sure, does anyone really think that???)
And I say, if we’re getting enjoyment from doing this to others, it means we’re in a very resistant not good feeling place even if these actions helped us to feel better. If it doesn’t feel good to be doing this or to be part of a group that is doing this, it means we are likely in a better feeling vibrational place and are not needing to pull others down to feel good about ourselves.

Even if what’s been said is true, it isn’t a good idea to gossip and speak not nicely about others, it’s just not worth it!!
If we do find ourselves doing this, it’s good to make an effort to move into a better feeling vibrational place by noticing things around us that are positive and good.
If people around us are gossiping, avoid being dragged into it by not entertaining such conversations and remove yourself from the situation if you need too. If we stay strong in mind and action with our decision to not engage and take part in these types of conversations, it’s not very long before we either don’t come into contact with people who are talking about others negatively, or if we do, they don’t seem to feel “inspired” to talk about such things when we’re around because they don’t get the response they’re wanting…. That’s the beauty of the Law of Attraction don’t you think?

Allowing others to pass resistant vibrations onto us, doesn’t help anyone create what they’re wanting. In truth nothing can be passed to us without our full permission, and that permission comes through giving something our focused attention and thought that causes an emotional response that the Law of Attraction responds in-kind too.

Knowledge is power…. And we can exercise that power in any way we chose by attracting that which we are wanting….Or something else….

And so it is….

When they say you should change, can you lift your head high and stay strong???

CityUnderWater
These are lyrics from the song Soar, by Christina Aguilera.

So, the question is….When others believe we should change our behaviour in some way, especially those that we respect and care about, do we stay strong when we feel what we’re doing is right for us???

Well, that depends doesn’t it, on whether it’s more important for us to stay true to what we feel is right for us in any given moment, or whether it’s more important for us to keep someone else happy by doing what they feel we should or shouldn’t be doing.

The question could be….When is someone else other than ourselves, better equipped than we are to know what we’re truly wanting and what the best route to take to get there is??? Well, they are not!!

I can imagine many would strongly disagree, especially if we feel people should be doing what we feel and tell them they should be doing, not what they feel they should be doing!! Now, before anyone gets their knickers all bunched up,(Hehehe, that’s funny don’t you think!!) I know we can get very good advice and inspiration from the others we come into contact with, that’s the Law of Attraction responding to our own positive vibration that has been maintained long enough with emotional intensity until we start attracting and receiving positive manifestations…..And I say that’s totally AWESOME!!

Our emotions are our Inner Guidance letting us know if we’re moving towards something we’re wanting (positive emotions) or something we’re not wanting (negative emotions) so it’s virtually impossible for someone else to have experienced all we’ve experienced in our lives and feel the same as we do in relation to everything that’s important to us and everything we’re wanting, so the truth is, no other is in a better position than ourselves to decide what’s best for us, end of story. (Not really end of story, but you know what I mean don’t you?)

In reality all the answers we’re looking for are around us all the time, no exceptions ever, the question isn’t if they’re there, it’s more whether we’re seeing them or not. The fact is, if we’re not in the same or very similar vibrational place as the answers we’re seeking, we don’t see them even when they’re right under our noses!!
Depending on where we are and how we feel about that, it could be annoying or exciting, probably a bit of both.

No matter where our answers come from, whether from external sources in the form of people and experiences or from internal sources like our own thoughts and feelings, the final decision on which way to go is always ours.
If what we’re receiving feels good, it is good, especially when we make an effort to focus on all the positive aspects of what we’ve decided on doing. If what we’re receiving doesn’t feel that good but we feel that’s what we need to do to get the results we’re wanting, we can make it a better choice by taking the time and making an effort to move into a better feeling vibrational place by again focusing on all the positive aspects of what we’ve decided to do.

The truth is….Action taken from a not good feeling vibrational place is very hard work and doesn’t usually reap very good results, whereas by listening to how we’re feeling and making an effort to move into a positive vibrational place, makes our journey much more enjoyable and reaps much better results, and I think it would be fairly true to say, there’s not many of us here that wouldn’t want that….

And so it is….

I feel something so right doing the wrong thing…..I feel something so wrong doing the right thing…..

SaharaBabyDoll
These are lyrics from the song Counting Stars by One Republic.

So how could one feel right doing the wrong thing, and wrong doing the right thing??? There are an infinite number of answers to that question depending on the specific circumstances we may be talking about, but take the specifics out of the situation and it always comes down to the same reasons which are;

I have been raised with many values, rules, and morals standards that have been taught to me by my family, culture and the society I am apart of, and although mostly I believe these are good and make my physical experience here enjoyable, why do I sometimes feel like I’ve done something wrong when I’ve done the right thing as prescribed by my up-bringing? The short answer is, we’ve gone against the communication or guidance we’ve received from our Non-Physical counterpart that’s communicating with us through our emotions. The stronger our negative feelings are, the more strongly we’re moving in an unwanted direction, but on the flip side of this, the stronger our positive feelings are, the more strongly we’re moving in the direction of something we’re wanting!!

I like to talk in terms of wanted and unwanted rather than right or wrong, for whatever we are doing may be judged as right or wrong by others and ourselves, but this is rarely useful. What’s really important is….Is what I am choosing to think, speak or act on now, moving me closer to that which I am really wanting to experience, or is it moving me further away from what I am really wanting to experience???

If something doesn’t feel good or right to us, it isn’t good for us, end of story. It doesn’t mean that it’s the end of the world of course, it just means when we have a feeling that we shouldn’t be doing this or that, it’s communication from our Non-Physical counterpart that stayed in the Non-Physical realm when we made the decision to come forward into this Physical world, telling us that the thoughts, words or action were currently taking are not moving us in the direction of what we’re really wanting.

This doesn’t mean that things can’t work out well if we have taken action when we’ve felt we shouldn’t have, because we have the ability to constantly change and amend what we’re thinking, saying and doing until we’re in vibrational alignment with what we’re really wanting.

Vibrational alignment is another way of saying we are in harmony.
In harmony, or emitting the same vibrational frequency between the Physical part of us that’s here in this Physical world and the Non-Physical part of us that’s communicating with us through our emotions from the Non-Physical realm..

As many would know, the Non-Physical realm is a place where strongly unwanted circumstances do not exist. Although there are variations in vibrations even there, there’s not the vast variations we can experience in our physical world environment. We came with the freewill to choose from all we observe what it is we wish to experience, and although we do tend to congregate in groups of similar vibration, (Law of Attraction!!) The rules and regulations of how we should live and create what we’re wanting to experience in our lives can never be dictated by another outside of ourselves, no matter how well-meaning they are!!

When one feels their experience is threatened by others behaving in a way they find to be inappropriate, and much negative focused attention is given to such circumstances until strong negative emotion is produced and maintained over time, the Law of Attraction will bring us evidence of that which we are now strongly vibrationally emitting, because it’s all “Out there!!”
It’s our job to focus on what we have decided through the living of our life, what we’re wanting to experience, and allow others to do the same.
Just as we are free to choose, so is everyone……And this isn’t a problem when we know nothing strongly unwanted can enter our world unless we maintain and increase negative focus on it.

At the end of the day, we are all in charge of ourselves and what we do, rules dictated by others can be a helpful guide sometimes, but usually come from a place of trying to control others for fear they will do something “inappropriate” that may threaten our way of life.

When one is often in alignment with what and who they really are, a blending of our Physical and Non-Physical selves, Laws, Rules, and Regulations are never required, and if one is far away from this blending or alignment, Laws don’t work anyway….

And so it is….

You’re giving me such Sweet Nothing…..

FlyingFeathersThese are the lyrics of a song by Calvin Harris featuring Florence Welch called Sweet Nothing.

When I first heard this song I loved it, and when I figured out what I thought the words were, I loved it even more. What I thought I was listening to was…..”You’re giving me such Sweet Energy,” and every time I heard it I was like “Wahoo,” and I sung my little heart out like there was no tomorrow!!
After a while I thought I’d better download it, and can you imagine my utter shock at learning the words were actually, “You’re giving me such Sweet Nothing,” the exact opposite meaning to what I thought it was saying.
It’s an interesting listen when this song comes on during our drive to school with the correct version singing Sweet Nothing, me singing Sweet Energy, and my young daughter singing something that sounds like Sexy Elephants…..It’s a real hoot!! (I don’t have the heart to tell her she’s got it wrong, cause Ignorance really is bliss sometimes!!)

I’m sure some are probably thinking I’m crazy right now and what does it matter??? And in the big scheme of things, it doesn’t really matter, especially if you’re not into music, but I love music and it’s important to me what the lyrics are saying because I think quite deeply about what they’re trying to convey. It’s also good to know that when we tune into anything strongly, the thoughts and feelings that went into it during its creation are passed onto the listener, even if it is only temporarily.

I’m not saying everything we listen to has to be about rose petals and sunshine because we often need to acknowledge a problem or unwanted circumstances before we can move into the solution, giving us the opportunity of bringing more of what we’re wanting forward, and into our experience. All I’m saying is it’s good to be aware of what we’re listening too, and that what we’re listening too is often a reflection of where we are, and how we’re currently feeling.

Back to giving me such Sweet Nothing…..This isn’t really possible and if you listen to the lyrics in this song, you’ll hear that the recipient is getting plenty, just nothing that they’re wanting. And that’s exactly how it is when we communicate with anyone, we’re always sending out vibrational signals back and forth that lets us know how our interactions are progressing.
Even if there isn’t much verbal communication, everything we’re thinking and feeling is being communicated vibrationally, it’s not a question of whether this happens or not, but more a question of how sensitive we are to how we’re feeling and the vibrations that others are sending out.

So I suppose the question could be……Do we want to be sensitive to how we’re feeling and the vibrations others are sending out???
Absolutely yes, this is a very good idea. Remember, our emotions are communication from our Non-Physical counterpart (do you like that, our Non-Physical counterpart…..Hehehe!!) letting us know if we’re creating and moving in the direction of what we’re wanting to experience (positive emotions) or if we’re focused in a way that’s attracting what we aren’t wanting to experience. (negative emotions)
The more sensitive we are to how we’re feeling, the sooner we can make an effort to move ourselves into a better feeling vibrational place therefore reducing momentum in a direction we’re not wanting to go and increasing momentum in the direction we are wanting to go in!!! (Again I say, “Wahoo!!”)

Being sensitive to the vibrations of others can help us to know where they currently are, and whether it’s a good idea to interact with them right now, because what is good for one is good for the other, whereas what’s not so good for one is not so good for the other either.
In other words, protecting ones self from not nice interactions with others not only prevents us from creating more unwanted circumstances in our life, but also prevents the other from creating more unwanted things in their life, but probably won’t prevent them from having a not nice interaction with the next person they encounter if they’re really in the place for it….If you know what I mean!! (Momentum and the Law of Attraction!!)

But that’s their choice though, not ours!!

And so it is….

The Awesomeness of Music!!!

Lampost
I love music…..And there’s not much in this physical world that will raise ones vibration as easily as music does!!

Although this is true, like all things, the production of music is a reflection of where the creators of it are vibrationally with their thoughts and emotions, which is another way of saying music can be made from any emotional position, rage, hate, anger, freedom, love, joy, fun, etc…..
In a similar way to this, what we’re choosing to listen to can also be a reflection of where we generally are vibrationally.

In the past, a lot of music spoke to the struggles of the times, world problems, (U2, Sinead O’Connor, Midnight Oil) relationship woes, (Madonna, Dido, Adele) and other subjects that many struggled with, (Eminem, Creed, Tonic).
Much of it made awesome music that was deeply heartfelt and emotional, taking the listener on a journey so to speak, into emotional places the creator had been and often to emotional places we’d experienced in our own lives.

So let me ask you, do you put sad music on when you’re down and make yourself sadder??? Hehehe…..Opps sorry, that might not be funny to some people!!
I use to do this when I was a teenager, and I have to say it would make me feel very sad, but afterwards I’d feel better. I think it helped me to release my negative emotions to some extent so then I could move myself to an even better feeling place more easily. That was some time ago, so maybe it had something to do with not having the skills or not knowing how to feel better on my own???

Anyway, for me it seemed to work back then, whereas now I only use music to raise my vibration and how I’m feeling to very high-flying places, not lower it.
For those that really love listening to music and feel moved at a very deep level by it, this is an awesome tool to use. Whereas if you’re not that into it, you’ll wonder what the heck I’m going on about!! Hehehe….

That’s ok, different strokes for different folks, isn’t that how the saying goes???
So if you do love music, use it to your advantage, when you’re feeling good and even when you’re not feeling so good, put your favourites on and see how it changes how you feel. If it helps you to feel better, even if it’s only temporarily, use it!! This is an easy way to divert our focus helping us to stop or slow the progression of negative emotions from gaining power and momentum, which ultimately means we’re now in a much better place to cope with whatever it is that’s upset us!!

I always say to my husband, “If I had music continuously streaming into my ears, I’d never have any problems!!” (And I do my best to have my headphones in as much as I can!!) He just rolls his eyes and laughs….Cause he’s just not that into it!!

And so it is….
