Of course it was later in the movie when we see she is placed in a glass coffin that we realize that death did not come to her, only sleep. We see to that what awaits is the handsome prince and the whole kingdom is happy.
It seems that last week and especially this weekend I have been on a journey and it was discovering what lies inside myself. I have discovered by meeting and talking to others that we each have a sleeping soul inside ourselves that is waiting to be awakened to discovering that we are far more than flesh and bone.
I find too, that we each carry apart of ourselves offering us a poisoned apple that contaminates our personal freedom by sabotaging our emotions and our lives. Many of us know this by the name of the ego. Yes, the ego is the apple that we all seem to bite into and find that it hurts not only us but the people around us.
The more that we are aware of this, then we will find that our past has conditioned us to believe that when we are in fear we become defensive. Doesn't sound so bad but when we add two and two together you find that mostly this means other emotions are added to the whole equation. Sound complected? It is and I am sure you have heard of the term of "peeling an onion". Which means that there are layers and layers that need to be opened and dragged into the light.
The poisoned apple theory can go as far as poisoning an ear. Our intentions may be good as to warn others not to get stuck in someone's else's mess but if our own issues are not taken care of, then we may do our own projection or even unload some of our personal baggage. This will only inflame the situation or cause damage to another.
Of course this does not promote healing for us or the situation that may need to be handled in a loving way. And the emotions of anger or guilt will follow which only add to the mind dialog that can be an emotional trauma to ourselves, kind of like salt poured into an open wound.
Therefor, it is important for us to take some time out to heal and reevaluate where we are and how our own past might infect a situation or relationship. It is a good time to look within, bringing care to those places that were hurt. Self care is so important and we wonder why we are so prone to diseases and emotional trauma in our lives.
We don't give ourselves time to heal. We don't balance our bodies, mind and souls along with emotions. So our fears only becomes transfered to others without us even realizing that we are in pain. Taking the time off to do some personal care, reading a book on healing, going to a class, talking to someone who is trained in healing, doing body work, studying emotional art, taking a walk in nature, and learning about energy of the soul are all part of self discovery and healing.
Last week and weekend some amazing people came into my life and touched my heart in so many ways in their walk in helping and healing others. They have the ability to hold individuals up and seek only the highest good for those around them. The apples they offered were pure gold, as I could see into their hearts and feel the healing energy around them.
I found myself just wanting to be in their presences and was grateful for the time I had with them. I think that by dealing with our past we can then remember to reawaken our own beauty within ourselves as we share with others.
Namaste,
Ana
