This is always such a controversial subject.
Being connected to source typically refers to feeling a deep sense of alignment, peace, and unity with the universal energy or higher power that many people believe governs the universe. This connection can bring a sense of clarity, purpose, and inner peace, and can help individuals feel more grounded, inspired, and supported in their daily lives. It often involves practices such as meditation, prayer, mindfulness, and self-reflection to cultivate this connection and maintain a sense of spiritual well-being.
What I would like to bring attention to, is what this means in actual practice. It is easy to put a lot of big words around this concept and swamp people in spiritual jargon because the concept really is so all encompassing.
It is my opinion, that being connected to source means being entirely and completely honest with yourself as well as the people around you, and living in that truth emphatically and fully, without any kind of remorse. So that you are capable of achieving flow.
Because if you are being honest with yourself, what is there to be remorseful about? We are all different and we want different things., and our minds are geared towards achieving different things. Not everyone was made to be a parent. Though plenty believe this is what they are supposed to do. Get married, and have there two point five children and have a successful business. This is what they believe they have to do, so they do it. But this also leaves families feeling unwanted, unloved, and uncherished. Causing deep emotional trauma that is very difficult to come back from .
Some who argue that these people just need to take responsibility for their actions and figure it out. And I could not agree more. The problem is, this does not align with there energy, and therefore does not align with source, and it subsequently incredibly difficult to achieve. IT IS ACHIEVABLE. I am not saying it is not. Make that who you are. Manifest it into your life., Be a fucking badass.
The reality is, that is really fucking hard.
There are not a lot of people who can do what I do. I recognize that, because it is not in alignment with who they are. They cannot be something they are not. It is not in alignment with them, to hold multiple jobs, love and care for their family with fervor and reverence and hold bonds that they form near and dear to their heart. But these are things that right now, are who I am to my core. I love to work. I love to take care of my family. It gives me a deep sense of love and peace to do so. I love forming strong bonds, and falling in love and exploring that love within in its fullest extent. I hold all of these things near and dear to me, and am able to achieve them with a level of ease once I find my rhythm.
Why?
Because when I am in this state, I am connected to source. I am living to the fullest extent of my being without care. I am fully myself. I am being honest with myself and the people around me about what I am capable of and what I am not capable of.
Being fully honest with yourself means being willing to confront and acknowledge your true thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and actions without denial, avoidance, or self-deception. It involves taking a hard look at your own behaviors, patterns, motivations, and desires, and being open and truthful about your strengths, weaknesses, fears, and vulnerabilities.
Being fully honest with yourself also means being willing to accept and take responsibility for your mistakes, shortcomings, and areas for growth, and actively working towards self-improvement and personal development. It requires a high level of self-awareness, self-reflection, and self-acceptance, as well as a commitment to living authentically and in alignment with your values and principles.
So, in short, it means to stop doing things simply because that is the way that it is supposed to be. It means living free and full and creating boundaries around the things that are not true to you. If you were not meant to be in a long term relationship, just fucking don’t! It is going to hurt you and it is going to hurt them.
You were not meant to have kids? Fucking don’t! We do not need anymore broken people out here, and that is exactly what you will do. Not meant to run your own business? Then don’t! You will work every single day of your life and hate every single moment of It. It will never be satiating. It will never be fulfilling, you will never genuinely enjoy your life.
Why?
Because it is impossible to connect to source, if you are operating in an energy that was not made for you.
This also means…. that everyone is so different. It is important to understand that everyone is different and needs different things because it promotes empathy, understanding, and respect for others. Recognizing and accepting individual differences helps us to appreciate the unique perspectives, experiences, and needs of those around us. This understanding can lead to more meaningful and fulfilling relationships, effective communication, and a more inclusive and harmonious society. By acknowledging and valuing diversity in all its forms, we can create a more compassionate and equitable world for everyone.
WE NEED PEOPLE WHO ARE DIFFERENT FROM US. If you only surround yourself with people who think like you, and behave you like you, and connect to source in the same way you do, you will forever be stuck, and will never have the ability to grow in certain ways. It is impossible to grow without resistance. And learning to exist in a world with people who are different, and being able to respect those difference while maintaining your own truth is a hard and yet vital skill that everyone should be able to attain.
That’s my two cents anyway.
But what do I know? I am just a women trying to make it.
