The theme for this week is on the word "change" and "sacrifice."  First, there has been changes in my own personal growth in expressing the traits of a leader and a "light worker."  I know where I stand with integrity and authenticity, but the fears and doubts in me also surfaces as I begin to discover what of an "influence" and "impact" I have had on others subconscious mind.  It stirs a lot of emotions not only from this life but especially from many lives beyond not only in others but in myself as well.  This forces me to not only revaluate my own leadership skills, but my own purpose as a "light worker."  My mentor taught me something important today that when we shine more light and send out more love to the world, we stir a lot of negative emotions in others that is considered anti-love.   This obviously shows that there are those who are desiring much healing and clearing in the world and as we do so, there are those who will resist it.  This has been such a great revelation to me that gives me strength to continue moving in my own path with mindfulness and courage.  Where does the word change and sacrifice fit in all of this?  Well, first of all I have learned to embrace changes and sacrifices throughout my life.  This has been my personal experience but not necessary always an easy one.  What I have learned in others is that it is not always easy for them to make changes and sacrifices, especially when it is something they value or have valued the most...in this case, their own families.  The conflict becomes apparent when they are faced with a choice in their own path when they are desiring one thing, yet wanting to hold on to another.   The set of old patterns and beliefs that we hold not only from this life but in many lives past, is what will challenge us to question whether we are really ready to move forward.  If we are truly desiring changes in our own lives and the desire is greater than the sacrifice, then the choice obviously is easier to make.  Opportunities present themselves, but it is always the individual"s choice to step into it.  The leader and light worker in me must be able to distinguish the complexities of it all and apply myself accordingly.  It is not as easy as I thought, but yet no one ever said it would be.
