methods


I was thinking about intentions and wishes and energy put forth into the universe. I think there are moments of inspiration when I shine and there are its sisters of darkness, lurking and vying for air space. 

I looked over the words I chose this year as companions to my word. Maybe I'm more consciously attuned to my word this year than others, but the instances to practice what I preach, (or send out), have been numerous and we're only six weeks in.

Maybe this year will be like that. It's a big year for me after all, I think more than ever I'm trying very hard to be conscious of my actions and aware of the reactions that come as a result. 

I'm learning that even if my intention isn't negative, that my delivery needs tweaking. I'm so very sensitive to how I'm spoken to and yet I'm guilty of the very things that push me. 

While my shortcomings can be numerous,(depends on the day), there is a deep desire to be present. I'm no longer comfortable with holding onto feelings that feel like poison. 

Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darkness of other people.

-Carl Jung

This is what I'm thinking about this week.
