Mid Life Crisis?

…or is it just a personal awakening???

(This is a loose translation from the video below.)

We all have a perception of what a midlife crisis is, and contrary to popular belief it’s not a mental illness, nor does it need to be treated with drugs.
Most of us reach a time in our lives when we begin to sense that everything that we have trusted in and believed is total bullshit; school, politicians, news, media, religion, even our parents.
Deep down we sense that there must be something more, so we freak out and do something drastic to kick-start our lives. We may buy something expensive or quit our job and travel or go off to live in an ashram in some remote corner of the world.

Whichever way your personal “crisis” manifests itself you can rest assured that society will shame you for your “crazy” behavior. Most people are not going to accept that you are merely going through a personal awakening. So, what are you going to do? Are you going to let others determine how you should live your life?

“You’ve changed!  You’re not the same person I used to know.”
Trust me; if somebody is accusing you of changing, then you’re doing something right! AND KEEP DOING IT despite the criticism!!!
I know people that have been the same for 40 years, and it’s sad. Don’t be that person. You have unique talents and gifts, so follow your path no matter how crazy it might appear to other people. It’s okay to grow beyond the expectations and desires of your family, of your friends, of your social circles, of the life that you built for yourself based on your previous programming… and make no mistake, every single one of us has been programmed into a cult-ure of trauma.  Even the people with so-called “perfect lives” have been traumatized; they’re just better at hiding it.

Break free and discover who you are without the distractions, projections, and distorted desires of others. You are here to live YOUR soul’s purpose and no one else’s.
Those closest to you will either support you or fall away and yes, the falling away hurts like hell but you will survive the pain.
Discovering yourself requires courage, and it often leads to isolation, loneliness and even getting your ass kicked sometimes, but each trial conquered brings with it renewed strength and wisdom and if anyone would shame you or withhold love, buh-bye!
Thank the universe for showing you their true colors and then cut loose anything or anyone that is not serving you or your journey. God will not punish you. Quite the opposite. The angels are cheering for you so don’t let them down.

It is our birthright to find out WHO AND WHAT WE REALLY ARE!!!  Never let anyone shame you out of your journey of self discovery!
Anyone who wants to keep you in a box just isn’t someone who will help bring out your greatest you!

Many of us lost in circles of loved ones never get a chance to discover our greatest you!
It’s okay!  None of us know…that’s what life is about and WHY we shall not allow anyone in our lives that would want to hold us in our prisons of programming we’ve been inundated with.
Those that love you will water your seeds and nourish the soil around you…

This may be a crisis for them finding out that their loved one is not the same person anymore, but did the butterfly complain after his birth to freedom???

Neither will you!

Now go forth and be yourself!  The life you save may be your own!  🙂

Blessings and Love,
