Out-Dated Places

Posted on November 21, 2011 at 5:20 PM
Once in a while we find ourselves caught or trapped in a place that has out lived it's purpose, although an "out-dated" place, we remain because it is comfortable or we have become fearful of moving beyond it. These places often create whirlwinds so to speak and cause us to repeat certain cycles and or habits that can sometimes actually be quite damaging or harmful, to ourselves and or others.

In order to break free from these "out-dated" places we must first recognize that we are in them, and then over come the fear or comfort that has caused us to remain there and let go and move away and beyond in to a new place. This is not always easy because we are creatures of habit and when something doesn't seem broken, why fix it? But this is the illusion of these "out-dated" places, they are in a sense broken, sometimes completely broken!

....and if we finally recognize the truth of these places and know we must get a hold of courage to move forward and away from them, it is then that we notice that we have known all along that the screams we have been hearing occasionally in the background were actually the voices in that whirlwind yelling at us to get out of there!

This speaks to my heart. I had to pull myself away and out of a maze, that I wanted to fix. Still miss that situation and person, but I salute the learning. I have had a year and a half, now to learn and grow and heal .So... now I will be aware when my time of reflection is Over and it is time once again to change. I guess some, get to stay in the same place to grow and learn, but that has not been the case for me. Love and Light to You, Silent Feather.

Hi Anita, thanks for your comment and sharing...

I also wrote this some time ago that I feel may be relevent:

"The act of "letting go" of something in our lives is actually an act of acceptance; you may choose to "let go" of something and choose a different path, but, you must accept that you can never honestly deny or physically escape the experience....everything you "let go" of remains a part of you forever."
