You belong to an incredible lineage of love…
Weather you are in a personal dynamic that has you feeling like you’re on the outside or are just dealing with the cultural phenomenon of having to be more isolated because of a global pandemic, your point of reference and focus helps determine your feelings.
We all want to feel like we belong and are a part of something valuable…. We want our value and worthiness to be experienced externally and reflected back to us. And often be become reliant on those external reflections of our value and worth to help us feel good about who we are, what we are doing, and how we feel over all.
Here is where your point of reference and focus are everything! If you aren’t feeling good about yourself or what’s happening in your life, or if you have been feeling disconnected and anxious and sad about it, then it’s time to check your point of reference.
YOUR WORTH, VALUE, AND SENSE OF BELONGING HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU!!
Self-doubt has a way of creeping in when your focus is on other people and how they see you. Their actions make you feel a particular way about yourself, but the reality is that their actions have little to nothing to do with you. Your worth, value and sense of belonging…. Don’t have to be up for negation because of someone else.
I can’t say it enough…. YOUR WORTH AND VALUE HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH OTHER PEOPLE…. NOR DOES YOUR SENSE OF BELONGING.
Your worthiness has nothing to do with:
- What people think of you
- If people include or invite you places
- If they see you, appreciate you, or admire you
- The circumstances you find yourself in (Good or Bad)
- What you have or have not accomplished
- What you look like
- How popular you are
- Your age, experiences, gender, religion, race, orientation, wealth or status.
- Your worth and value don’t really have much to do with any of the external or human part of who you are, and they sure as heck don’t have to do with anyone else.
You come from a vast lineage of love!
Your divinity set your humanity into motion weaving divine love into all that you are. Every person at the table of humanity, past, present and future, comes from this lineage of love. Through this human experience we each create our unique expression of truth, essence of love, and creation of life. You absolutely belong! You are the only you that could ever fill you seat at the table of humanity.
Where you focus your attention you create thoughts and those thoughts lead to feelings and so the cycle continues…. but you always have a choice and you can interrupt a cycle and focus on how truly and deeply you belong to this brilliant lineage of love.
From that fundamental perspective of truth, value and worthiness your belonging sounds and feels so beautiful and elegant. But I do get that the day-to-day reality of being human and sitting at the table of humanity is messy. It’s a mix of both darkness and light and challenge and joy, along with endless contrasting experiences. No matter where you find yourself in this messy-mix of human experience, remember to bring it back to your heart, your soul, and your fundamental truth… you are worthy, valuable, and you absolutely belong. You have the power to focus there and then refocus there as often as you need to.
Your feelings, thoughts and focus are real and a very powerful part of the co-creative process that creates your reality. You have the power to focus on your bigger picture of belonging and to create your thoughts from this place of worth and value. Just imagine the miracles and joy that wait for you from that perspective.
So this week I invite you to think about, dream about, and believe that you BELONG.
