Cleaning Out Pandora's Big Dark Closet



Cleaning Out Pandora’s Big Dark Closet

This Was a Day of Contrast
A six minute video called 10 Signs of Spiritual Awakening is worth watching.

 This video mentioned emotional cleaning of old trapped feelings.  This is a catch 22 in spiritual growth.  This is how I see it.  As I climb the ladder of awareness and understanding I begin to feel lighter, freer and much happier and then Pandora’s Box swallows me up.  It feels like a game of Shoots and Ladders and I landed on the wrong square.  Whoosh, I am back to square one and so discouraged.  On a clear or calm day I can see the logic for this.  My childhood had insecure and dark moments.  I feel there was abuse on several levels however I will not go into this victim mode right now.  It really doesn’t help overcome the abuse.  I am convinced that I choose this family and environment to speed up my progress.  My evolution was slow as a turtle I was told by my Higher Ups.  Being an “old soul” was now getting on the last nerve of my Cosmic Counterparts.    My soul group is prodding me along.  It seems like we have all the time in the world to progress and evolve, but maybe not.  There are so many of us here right now.  I think I wanted to be alive on earth for the 2012 experience of tipping the balance.  If enough humans cross the threshold together we will shift into a more humane energy.  Life expectancy should increase and mental and physical ailments should diminish quite a bit.  I probably needed a life time to speed up my pace so I could join the great wave of souls (having a human experience) as we cross the marathon marker.  It really is an exciting event and to be a participant is awesome.
I left my sometimes sad childhood just hanging out there.  I can trip on that emotional baggage sometimes.  It is necessary to clean out those memories and elevate those experiences.  It hurt at the time it happened.  As a social worker, I pray we change the old ways of parenting and in doing so kids will probably grow up substance abuse free.  We can teach them to roll with the punches and like themselves.  When kids experience abuse they blame themselves.  Often times they have the abusive parent on a pedestal and want to be loved by them.  Somehow that translates as this:  There must be something awful about me, for this person whom I love and adore to be so unkind and uncaring.  It sometimes takes 50 years of therapy to heal those inner bruises.  I accept and love me much more. There is great wealth in that realization.  Then every now and then poor red headed Pandora shows up..kind of like a meeker Annie.  In truth I am neither devil nor angel…I am human… and that is a privilege.  As a human I can weave the rich tapestry of emotion into my life.  I feel so colorful.  I am guided towards realizing the Big Picture by my own amazing emotions.  The vector of spiritual growth is quite curvy with ups and downs and the contrast of life.  For me it is truly a 2012 blessing to ride the back of discovery via feelings.
