If You Don’t Have Wings

October 7, 2020 by Nadine Gordon

I feel you out there. All of you with wounded souls who do not think you have the strength to continue – but – you do and you will.

Those of you who have done your inner-work and proudly display your scars will continue to do it for others like yourself because you know we like minded souls can use loving energy without strings to regenerate. Once replenished, they too will give back a contribution of loving energy. The continual sharing of this give and take energy provides us with balance. Those of us who have done our inner-work know that this energy is best obtained through nature or other natural resources outside of ourselves. We send it to each other through the warm breath of air.

We know this because most of us have probably been subjected to the vampirism of others or those who continue to take without giving. They sap us of our strength. Those of us who have done our inner-work have learned to set boundaries against the takers as a means of self-preservation. We must be diligent with our enforcement of these boundaries, otherwise we loose our balance. Inner-work guides us and is an ongoing process.

I feel you out there. All of you with wounded souls who do not think you have the strength to continue – but – you do and you will.

If you have not done your inner-work, start!

If you find yourself isolated or alone, the timing is perfect. You might not like yourself when you begin your inner journey. That’s okay. Go into those deep still waters of yours and take a look. If this makes you feel fearful, take note; the thing you are afraid of is yourself. We can be our own worse enemies. If you have a feeling of guilt or shame for past actions or experiences know that it is never too late to make positive change. This is a beginning. Begin by setting small achievable goals. Take notice of those good things or people whom you aspire to be like and know that you have the capability to achieve those things or qualities while casting aside those you find undesirable.

If you do not have wings

If you do not have wings you should not be looking down on others.

Stop looking down on yourself as well. Take small steps to begin with. Inner-work can be an arduous journey and you cannot fight your way into a state of wellness. Neither can you rush it. Hurray and perfection do not match. Above all else, do not judge or compare your journey to that of someone else’s. Appearances can be deceiving. Nobody knows what trials or tribulations another has undergone in their travels through life. We all have sensitive hearts along with our wounded souls. Be gentle with yourself.

Try some sharing exercises by giving more than you take. Easy inexpensive acts of giving include a smile or a compliment when they are genuine.

We are most often the harshest judges of ourselves. Try smiling at yourself and give yourself a genuine compliment. Do this daily. You will notice once your wounded soul starts to heal the world around you becomes brighter. When this happens send your loving energy without strings into the cosmos on the breath of warm air for others to utilize for regeneration. We have a chance to transition the old into something wonderful and new.

I feel you out there. All of you with wounded souls who do not think you have the strength to continue – but – you do and you will. Thank-you for sharing!
