Courage

Have the courage to walk away from that which no longer serves you. Hold your head high and be at peace with your choice to value yourself. ~ ACN

To walk away from that which no longer serves you sounds incredibly easy to do yet most of us find it such a challenge and heartbreaking a thing to do.

Most of us also find great difficulty in doing this as we believe, at some level, that we deserve the treatment that is metered out to us mainly because we have no self-worth, self-esteem or self-love.

We worry about the consequence of our decision knowing that things will never be the same again.  We fear the changes that will come with making the decision to walk away. We wonder how this will affect us, who will still be our friends, if our families will support us once we make the decision to walk away.  Our heads are flooded with thoughts of foreboding prior to making this choice.  We traverse through a multitude of “what if’s”.  Often we have become so cosy in our little rut, knowingly or unknowingly and are filled with fear of the changes that will come with walking away.

When we examine the reasons why we have no sense of self-worth or our esteem is very low, our sense of love for ourselves is minimal if there at all, we find that there is worth, esteem and love right there hidden behind layer upon layer of discrimination, of abuse, of lack. 

Acknowledge that it is indeed there and take the steps to build upon what is there.  Each of us, arrive on this planet with these intact. Sadly, as life happens and we build walls often so thick and dense protecting what little there is of it. We buy into the words and action of others, believing we are worthless or undeserving and unlovable. Eventually we take on the belief ourselves that we are these things and completely lose sight of that which is hidden within us.  We forget that each wall has tiny little cracks in it and that we are fully able to chisel away at them, in time bringing them crashing down.

Take a step back. Stop. Listen. Now ask yourself; Am I worthy of more than this that no longer serves me? Am I deserving of more than this?  Allow yourself to feel your worth and deservingness. Right now you will likely feel that hot energy that surges through you that says; YES! I deserve than more than this. I am worth more than this.

Gather your courage, welcome it, feel it, embrace it, push your fear away turning it into a positive action and make the choice that will serve you through your experience.  Allow peace to flow over and through you as you walk courageously away from the things that no longer serve you.   You are worthy!  You are deserving of all the good things that the Universe has to offer you.  Greater than this remember always that you are the most beautiful loving being created by your Divine.  

May Angels always surround you as you make changes to bring you to being the very best that you can be in this lifetime, in this wonderful place, Earth, as you continue your soul journey. 

In love and light,

Amanda
