What Constitutes "Family"?
In the early part of my life, there was a lot of challenge and struggle within the family unit. I was introduced to poverty, alcoholism, abuse and other really difficult life situations at an early age.
I went thru a tremendous curve of learning as to why. First, like many others, I considered myself a victim and blamed others for bad decisions I made as a result.
I was able, after this paradigm shift, to also see the wonderful blessings my blood family provided. I came into an intensely creative vibration. I love the acting, singing, writing, painting and other creative fun that I've enjoyed in my life, skills that were honed in the creative pressure cooker of my childhood.
I was able to appreciate the phenomenal goodness and unconditional love that my Mom embodied, and her creative spirit, as well as the tremendously fractured yet intensely creative vibrational field my Dad embodied. I even learned to appreciate the pain and suffering that honed my ability to empathetic and compassionate toward others in situations they felt unable to control.
Later, I discovered that I actually could influence how Life outpictured. I learned the power of true forgiveness (not saying it without meaning it or saying it before I also expressed whatever feelings of loss, pain, guilt, sadness or shame that needed to be expressed about situations) and the power of acceptance of what is.
And now, I'm at a totally new level of spiritual awareness about the past, in that I realize it's not real. All that is real is now. All that ever happened, happened now, as Eckhart Tolle puts it. So. I can release the illusion of a past that influences me, whether negatively or positively, and stand in a fresh space of discovering who I am at a soul level.
My blood family was chosen. I chose to be part of that dynamic for reasons my soul understand. I've accepted that and with that acceptance, blame as well as appreciation left and it is just what it is.
My soul family, those I've met who are on the same spiritual wavelength even though we may not be blood-related, are the ones that saw me in a different Light. They helped me see myself that way, with more light in and around me.
And at last, I see that we are all family, every last one of us. That was the biggest life changer. We are all related.
