Aloneness

Do you feel alone?  Even if there are people in the room, in the house, on your street?  This is not unusual in today's life.  We find ourselves insulated from society within the walls of our houses, the doors that we keep closed and locked and our property is ours and no one can step onto it unless invited or they're delivering newspapers and mail. 

The days of old used to be that everyone sat on their front steps and rocked and read their newspapers and drank their coffee in the morning.   People used to talk to one another and care what was happening on their street and in their town.  They did not much care what was happening in their country or the world because they did not have televisions or radios informing them of every disaster in the world.  They just rocked and looked at their world and loved it.  It was a safe and peaceful place to be and then progress happened and they moved on with their perspective of their world.  It became fearful and scary and now we should lock our doors and stay indoors without visiting the neighbourhood or talking to anyone.

Do you even know your neighbours?  Do you know the people down the street who walk their dogs and walk right past your home without looking in your windows.   What if you smiled and said good morning when you were watering your garden or sitting on the front stoop drinking your morning coffee?  Wouldn't that be good?  Yes, it would and it would feel wonderful too.  It would be a way of feeling as if you belong.  You can bless your property with love and light and that only love and light can enter but if you're not being of love and light, no one will want to enter or visit. 

It's all about energy and letting the love that is deep within you emanate outward so that others are attracted to your energy and desire to be around it.  It's all about feeling safe and creating a safe place for you in your home and on your street so that it's welcoming and yet, no one feels threatened.

Open your heart to care about what is happening in your own little world (I am not talking about the big world, we all know it has its difficulties) and learn that what you create in your space has a way of sending love energy outward to the rest of the world and especially if you start with your neighbourhood.    Mother Earth cares that you care and a way to start would be to just look after your own space and yourself.  If you do that and if everyone does that, imagine what a great world it would be.  It would be safe to step out and smell the flowers and to talk, actually talk to people again and know that they feel the same way about life.

Become a little old fashioned and put those rose colored glasses back on and let yourself be a little brave and a little less lonely.  Don't fear rejection because if you accept yourself, everyone will accept you too.

I love you soooo much
