Not meeting people where they are at... but where they could be if they chose

 

If you were trying to help someone climb out of a ditch they fell into, would you jump in with them? Get down in the mud and try to push them up? Or would you stay on the bank and find something to help them climb up themselves? 

Some time ago I realised that when I was tuning in to people's emotions, and belief systems, as much as I thought I was helping them, I was actually jumping into the low vibrational ditch they were in and trying to push them up. This was especially strong with my parents, in particular my Mother. I thought I could only claim my high vibrations once I 'fixed' hers. But I was just keeping us both stuck. 

I've mentioned in previous posts about my Dad, who is in hospital right now, with an uncertain prognosis. Today the hospital bed, hoist and special armchair were delivered and set up in the downstairs back room. I put the bedding on, had a cry, and suddenly I needed to get out the house. I needed to get away. I needed to move my body. 

So I walked to my local supermarket. I used the movement, and being outside to shift my energy, to release whatever needed releasing. And on the way back I thought about the ditch analogy I first came across a few years ago. How I've been working on being the vibration that others can tap into. Being the one standing on the bank of the ditch being the vibrational rope that others can use to climb up. Giving to myself first, so I can be the embodiment of it. (That has required letting go of a lot of old beliefs around selfishness and what it means to be 'good' and 'generous'.)

With everything that's been going on, I've been connecting with my Guides, and Higher Self/Inner Being like never before. And it suddenly occurred to me, that our Inner Being is standing on the bank of the ditch we are often in, being the vibrational rope ladder for us. This is why our Inner Being will never come down the vibration scale and join us in sadness, or grief or other lower vibrational emotions. Sadness and grief are human experiences that come from Separation Consciousness. Not bad or wrong, just part of the rich tapestry of human experience that ultimately is leading us back to Oneness. 

My mind has been trying to make sense of everything that's happening right now. Trying to find something familiar to hold on to. And Anxiety and panic were making sense to my mind. A familiar box to create some structure in at a time that feels so uncertain. But the aha about our Inner Being standing on the bank, steadfast in High Vibration has helped a lot. That is the only thing that is certain. Our Inner Being will forever wait for us to join it 'up there' where the air is clear and clean. The Vibration high. And we can be the fullness of who we truly are. We don't have to wait until we die to get there either, although many do. Heaven is a vibration not a place. It's possible right here, right now. Heaven on Earth can be our Reality if we let it. And the more of us who allow ourselves to be that vibrational rope ladder for the rest of humanity, the quicker humanity will advance.
