HONOURING THE INDIVIDUAL SOUL PATH

Just a point on judgment and our insistence that something is right, simply because it was said by someone we value.

Thankfully, we have the freedom to do what we want with our lives and our money. But that doesn’t stop millions of people deciding how others ‘should’ or ‘shouldn’t’ live. We’ve become a society of ‘shoulds.’ How people should behave, what they should eat, how they should spend their money, what to wear, who to love and their career choices. We even weigh in on how people should raise their children and where they should go to college, what to value, what to believe, how and what to communicate, and how they spend their leisure time. We also tell people how they should solve their problems, what their next step should be, and quite commonly, how they should feel about a situation.

We may be living in one of the most judgmental societies ever. The limitations we place on the free will and personal choice of others actually has the effect of limiting our own free will. That is simply the way the universe works.

So many have yet to understand that each soul is on its own journey, with its own unique goals and the free will to create the experiences it needs to grow. Instead, we try to slot everyone’s path into a narrow band that fits our own fixed beliefs, programs we’ve been fed our whole lives. We get so entrenched that we forget to stand back and ask ourselves, ‘What am I actually saying? Is this true, or is it just another pattern I’ve bought into without questioning?

People hang onto ideas they heard or read years ago, whether from childhood or regarding the current reveal of information happening on Earth. Maybe it came from a respected source, like a parent, so it gets passed on as ‘the truth.’ It’s never questioned as being potentially inaccurate, incomplete, or perhaps just a tactic that was necessary at the time. Even if something was true when it was first said, divine order is always shifting, constantly moving to whatever serves the highest good in this moment. So those things may no longer be true.

Most of the time, helping others comes from a genuine desire to be kind. Intuitively help is magical as it offers right action in that moment. But when not done intuitively, we need to pause and remember ‘saving’ someone from their own actions and decisions might prevent their opportunity to grow. Inner gut feeling works over well intentioned advice which can be based on our own fears and experience. When we rush in to ‘fix’ people, in essence we are saying, ‘I don’t think you’re able to handle this.’ Sometimes the most loving thing we can do is step back and trust they are just as capable as we are. Next time we feel that urge to step in, we could check: Am I saying this because I intuitively feel it is for their highest good?

Sometimes our silence allows the other person to hear their own intuition.
