Commit To What You Want
Dear Friend,
I hope you are happy with the outcome of your election yesterday … and today… and every day. When you elect your Heart and its wisdom to govern your life, your life will change for the better and happiness will be your daily companion.
I have come to understand something very important about the expression of my life and this understanding keeps deepening as I allow my Heart to run my life. I mentioned a few days ago the importance of committing to what you want instead of what you want to change or get rid of. When you do the latter, your attention is on what is missing and it keeps you on a cycle of wanting/not having. This energy sustains itself and all you will experience is more of what you want/don’t have. It is important to shift your energy to what you want and connect with that feeling. The feeling of what it feels like when you already have it – in the future. When you do that, you have already reached your goal as an internal experience, and this will sooner or later be reflected on the outside.
Want vs. DeSire
But there is another important piece to this. The reason that we want things, period, is that we walk around with a feeling that we don’t have it. This feeling creates wanting. So as long as we feel that we are missing something, the feeling of wanting will try to fill this gap. However, when we try to create or manifest something from a place of lack, we put out that energy of lack and the outer reflects that back to us over and over. It cannot be otherwise.
Remember the word deSire? Of God/Goddess, from the creator/originator? DeSire exists in every one of us. It is coming straight from Spirit and when you allow it into, and out of your life, it unfolds with ease and grace and fulfillment. When you cut off this deSire, it turns into a wanting instead for something outside of you. It is still the same energy, but it gets distorted by cutting it off.
The word ‘want’ means ‘have not.’ Every time you say ‘I want’ you declare to the Universe – your Self: ‘I have not’, and magically you keep experiencing not having.
Please know that there is nothing wrong with wanting something. We cannot help it. This is how we have lived for eons and the programming goes deep. However, it does not mean that we have to continue this program. I am exposing it to you today, just so you can let yourself feel into this sense of wanting and experience how it feels in your body. The feelings we carry in our bodies are the energy that we broadcast all day long. Suppressing them does not change that. As a matter of fact, it may strengthen it.
What I have experienced in my own life is that when I feel something that I deSire, there is an automatic contraction around it and feels something like: ‘I don’t have it and it hurts’ – ‘I can never have that, so best not to feel it’ – ‘It is selfish to want that’ – ‘It is not OK to have that’. This contraction blocks the flow of the natural deSire in your Heart to come forth and express itself. Instead you project it out in the world, thinking the ‘remedy’ for the deSire is found out there. Not!
The deSire in your Heart is not a mistake. If there is any mistake, it lies in you and me contracting around a natural expression wanting to be born, and squashing it in the birth canal. Sad!
Tomorrow I will share more about what the real longing is for. It is not something outside of you, even though it certainly feels that way. In the meantime, please share with us how this relates to you and how it affects you.
ALL Love,
Pernilla
