I found this on social media this morning and thought how true it is. We are the product of our entire experience and it changes us in so many ways.
Sometimes the effect is positive, sometimes not. Sometimes it takes time to encompass past events and allow them to either fade or bring out the best in you. Or become utterly irrelevant. Whichever works.
Often we spend too much time talking about the bad things, not realising that we are recreating them over and over again. The past is factually gone and some elements must be allowed to rest. The only place they exist is in memory. It’s whether they affect us going forward that is important. And how.
We make that choice.
I long ago realised that focusing on the pain of the past was creating the wrong life. I can barely remember my ex now, but why would I want to? I divorced him and moved completely away for a reason. Why bring him back and continue the damage he did myself?
I'm a writer, public speaker, medium, and spiritual thinker. I suffered from acute anxiety from the age of 16 until I was well into my 50s, when I finally found methods that helped me to put it behind me. My struggles led to me exploring life through poetry, then plays, and over a 15 year period I made notes for a self help book which I published in 2015. Details on the book page. Although I am a psychic medium and loved the work, it didn’t feel right for me. It was an utter privilege, but my path was the exploration of what it means to be spirit in the real world and how we can make practical use of those abilities. Nowadays I write, blog, and teach soul-centred living, which is a gentle way of undoing past programming and connecting to your essential self, or soul. If you’re interested email me and we can chat. No pressure, it’s right for you or it’s not and you will know. The groups meet on line so no going out on cold, wet, winter’s evenings. On a personal note, I’m based in the UK. Married with five cats, no children, and four grandchildren, thanks to our inherited daughter, who has gifted us four beautiful little people that bring us such joy. Hope you enjoy the blogs. Deb xx
