All of us have been to a concert, movie, doctor's office, hotel or some place where we have to check in before we can finally get to our destination. Heck, even before you enter a night club they check for identification and if you're lucky, a handsome muscle bound bouncer will even pat you down for weapons.
This mandatory "check" should also be a prerequisite in our daily personal actions and interactions. Before we act or respond to something we should visit the INTENTION desk to check-in and confirm that all credentials have been verified.
I have been single for almost 5 years now. I have dated men here and there, but nothing too serious. Needless to say, every now and then I get the urge to call an old beau to spend some time or catch a movie. Just in that moment, when I'm about to dial the number, something always stops me and I end up spending the rest of the evening on my couch watching Netflix. This past weekend the same thing happened and I took a moment to investigate why I couldn't go through with the call.
MY INTENTIONS. I now understand that my intentions were requiring me to check-in at the front desk. The front desk is where all my life lessons were filed in a drawer. The front desk is where my newly developed spirit was standing with a smile and asking "How can I help you?". The front desk is where I had to show proof that I was no longer the same person I was in the past.
When I got to the front desk, my spirit advised me that my intentions were not directly in line with the goals I set forth for my life. She pulled an old dusty file from the drawer and reminded me that the person I was about to call had previously proven unworthy of my time. She then asked for my identification to make sure I wasn't returning to the front desk as the person I used to be in the past. After verifying my credentials, she did a quick pat down to make sure I wasn't carrying anything like old baggage, loneliness or low self-esteem in my pockets. She kindly took my cell phone from my hand and hung it up before I could make the call. She told me she loved me and sent me on my merry way toward my destination....Happiness!
All of our actions are driven by INTENT and PURPOSE. It is important to question the intentions buried beneath your actions, especially when those actions are fed from emotion. You then must determine if those intentions will serve a purpose in your life that will add exponential growth and love to your spiritual foundation. If your intentions are not in line with your growth, the outcome will likely be unfavorable.
Take a minute to check in at your front desk. You'll be happy you did!
Yep! I said it... Yo Mama! Now before you go getting all offended and wanting to defend her honor, there are a few things you need to know about Yo Mama.
Many of us wonder why we live out certain patterns in our life. Why we act and react the way we do to certain circumstances. Why we have certain personality traits that we just cant seem to change. Its all because of ...... Yo Mama!
Our true way of being, at its deepest core, took form the moment we were conceived in our mother's womb. Our birth pattern began long before we took our first breath in this world. Depending on the internal and external circumstances in your mothers life during her pregnancy, your birth patterns can be marked by vicarious nuances given to you in the womb.
I look at my youngest son's way of being and understand how my emotions and actions during my pregnancy with him have embedded patterns into his personal nature. I had a tumultuous relationship with his father which usually initiated arguing, crying and resentfulness on a daily basis. I remember several occasions during my pregnancy sitting in my bed weeping for hours. I was carrying my son in a toxic womb. A womb that was never in peace, always turned upside down and was seldom in balance. My spirit was consistently sending him coded messages that hurt feelings and suffering were the first things he would experience.
As a result, my son's most dominant pattern is his emotional sensitivity. As a young boy he would easily get his feelings hurt and seemed to cry about almost anything. As a teen, he now has deep seeded emotional bond with those he considers family and friends. He still tears up at things that touch his heart and is extremely loyal, even to those that may have hurt him in the past. He loves deeply and grieves even deeper.
When I recognized his pattern and realized I was the source of it, I immediately called My Mama! I asked her about her life during her pregnancy with me, even how she felt leading up to my birth. I asked her about the events that happened during my birth; were they rushing to the hospital, was it planned, were there any complications? Most of all, I asked her how she felt about my father. She was in love, they went to the hospital with no stress or chaos and my birth was seemingly normal. My fathers laid back nature helped put her at ease during her pregnancy and during the trip to the hospital. My mother spent much of her pregnancy working and planning her next move for her career. Which all explains why I don't get flustered about very many things and why I'm so focused on planning out my life. I was born into a love filled, peace filled, relaxed womb.
As a woman, I encourage you to take heed of your personal environment, your spiritual vibrations and your own personal birth patterns. Think about what you will give to your next growing seed. Your unborn child in-vibes every part of your spirit and absorbs every emotion within you. Every thought you have, every feeling you have, every urge you have...you share that with your child. Each child that is conceived has a purpose on this earth. Raising that child in a toxic womb will set forth birth patterns that they will spend their lives trying to overcome before they can truly fulfill their purpose. Why not make their lives a little easier by nurturing them in a peace filled womb; a womb of stillness and balance. A womb of love.
Now stop reading this blog and go have an inquisitive talk with Yo Mama! ♥
