Mentor and Friend

Describe a man who has positively impacted your life.

I’ve talked about Keith before, he was the mentor that opened my mind and let in the light. Freed me from the chains of my past. Allowed me to become an individual not a member of my damaged family. Who, to be fair, had way too much pain in their lives.

It’s one thing to understand but I could not keep dragging the impact with me. It wasn’t in my life plan, although I had no idea there was such a thing at the time.

As I’ve talked about this many times, let’s see what I can get out of this question with a little creativity.

Lessons

  • The only impact on your life should be you, it is in fact you. You choose what to accept.
  • All the good advice in the world is only as useful as you make it.
  • Listen to advice but follow your heart, it is the seat of your soul, and your soul knows best. No one else can know you better than you. No matter what they may think and say. “I know you better than you know yourself” is a lie, don’t fall for it.
  • Believing that you have a soul never did anyone any harm. Even if you don’t believe it, the idea that you can trust yourself if you listen to what you truly want and don’t let others make you doubt yourself, builds positive inner strength.
  • You won’t be confident if you don’t allow yourself to be. People told me I wasn’t confident when I was absolutely certain what I wanted and needed, and that I could do it. I would have been right. That led to a lack of self trust and one that cost me a great deal.
  • Ultimately you are the deciding factor in your life. You may think others did something to you, but your reaction set the tone of your future. If you can own that idea you can own your life.

Please note, that last point talks only of normal life events, not war, violence, deliberate attacks on your mind, or abuse. The impact of those is in a league of their own.

When it comes to loss of a loved one or pet, time is your greatest healer. Allow the healing by embracing the good memories when they surface. Grief is the emotion that divides us, love is the link that binds us forever.

My love, hope some of this helps.

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
