Change our way of thinking...
 

I get messages sometimes, or 'downloads' as I like to call them. These are little revelations that just seem to come to me during a series of thoughts that I feel I'm being led through. This is one of them....

Anyway, I've often pondered why so many people are having such a hard time dealing with all of this...including me. It's hard, I know that. But, why do we feel such dispair and sadness sometimes instead of joy and thankfulness that we've been chosen for such a gift? (Duh, it's hard:confused: .)

I've done much self evaluation when it comes to this and I've even questioned how strong I truly am now that I've been through 'spiritual bootcamp'.

Here's what I've come to believe...

As you know there are opposites in everything...yin and yang, dark and light, good and bad, etc etc. That being the case, this very concept of twin flames is what most would consider to be for the purpose of light. And because of that, there will always be those that want to stop it. There is good and bad in all things. In US. We have to choose which we decide to live by in this life and hopefully stick with it. But there is a neverending battle going on between light and dark, and good and evil.

When I allow myself to be saddened by the rollercoaster ride I've been on, the longing for another person no matter the strength of the connection, or the lack of control I feel in my life...am I not letting the 'dark' in?

This has been explained by many of you in numerous amounts of posts that aim at soothing those that are lost or in turmoil over their specific experience, but I think it's a good idea to reiterate in a separate post that much of the 'suffering' that comes with the tf experience may not only be for the purpose of strengthening us as individuals, but may also be the attempt by 'others' to distract us from staying positive and achieving the goal we are meant to achieve.

I'm always hearing from soo many sources about how we have to keep positive and have strength so that we can be ready and achieve great things, (and eventually be reunited with our other half.) And because of this, I'm starting to think, that as long as we let the sadness and grief of 'things not being the way we want them to be' take over us...we are simply letting the other side hold us back. I equate it to the angel and the devil sitting on our shoulders, enticing us and coercing us to do what they think we should do.

Which one are you going to listen to?

And I know it's not that easy. It's so very hard.

But, maybe that's the point.

I like this - I too get occasional messages, usually a statement of some sort - for a long time it has been "Hold your light" like a reminder of sorts....It fits well with your anology :)

I like that LS. I often get 'haven't I always taken care of you?' when I'm worried about things. I almost feel bad for doubting.

Yep i agree ,you think positive then positive things happen to you ..it is soo true....One of the messages i get all the time is, believe ,i see it everywhere from facebook ,to number plates ,tv etc .....just not sure what exactly i'm supposed to believe in yet lol.....I think it's to stop doubting i guess, just wish the angels could be a bit more concise sometimes lol :)

I agree, but would also add that in changing our thinking, we change the energy we give to ourselves, to the universe etc. If we use the energy of our thoughts positively, it has a positive effect on everything, everyone around us. But mostly, it recalibrates our basic energy..not sure if that made sense!

Like you need the negative in order to bring out the positive, iykwim.

Something about this went ding ding ding for me. I think you're right. And that would explain the ups and downs, ebbs and flows.

It's our own egos that do it to us. They want to keep us in a safe little bubble, trudging along as we always have so that they, the egos are in control. A soul connection is something which the ego cannot control because it isn't something logical. Therefore the ego tries to tell us that we are imagining things and being stupid and that's what causes the doubts and pain. I just say to mine "go away and leave me alone". Trust in what your heart tells you instead.

Great post, Element 5.

I have been wondering along these lines lately. Especially "assuming" for my twin. In my case a major age difference, 20 years, I had often assumed that there was no way to make this work. I was assuming her reaction and also a societal judgment that fed into the mirror loop of my emotion feeding hers. When I consciously dropped this mental construct, I immediately felt more peaceful. Perhaps it can best be summed up by the old line "love conquers all".

I have also thought this many times. It's so easy to get caught up in the "darkness" of it all, but that is what Ego wants. To me, Ego is the same thing as the devil/satan. When we are reunited with our twin flame, physically or spirituality, we are vibrating at higher frequencies and see the "light" so to speak. There is always that little voice, ego/devil, tempting you back down into the darkness and it's very hard to resist going there.
