Is it possible to do light work while also practicing the "Protect your peace" trend?.
That pseudo positivity practice instinctually feels like the biggest low vibrational bait trap out there. "This person seems be going through it, having a really rough time, I need to protect my peace and protect my vibration, they aren't as enlightened as I am"
What a paradox huh?
Self Preservation vs sacrifice. which is really the low vibrational road to take.
This topic was always something I was passionate about. Of course fight or flight is always a part of us, often the smart decision for self preservation is, cut ties, run... This used to be a much harder fork in the road one would have to pause at before choosing a path. Family members, Friends, Partners, Loved ones, acquaintances. Choosing to evade conflict or turmoil or sacrifice your own peace for a chance of possibly lifting someone out of a dark place was not as easy to make IRL.
In Modern times, with everyone on the planet instantly connected at a moment's notice, all digesting fragmented short form thoughts and opinions. quickly passing judgement and clicking "mute" is the new age "protect your peace".
Positivity isn't a personality trait, nor can it be a selfish act. It definitely isn't something humans can realistically sustain in life without selfishly applying ignorance is bliss armor.
I've wasted what feels like a lifetime, literally sacrificing peace by never giving on people. The people I wanted to help heal the most, those closest to me, I was never successful in breaking them out of their funk. My Mother being the life long mission that I couldn't just give up on, ironically I was finally able to break through and see positive change and impact after a lifetime of failing, This song was specifically created for her. The last year of her life, she improved her outlook tremendously and I'm thankful to have witnessed the effort even if she ended leaving this world she found so heavy very shortly after.
For all the people I cared about and couldn't impact through attrition and not giving up on them to "Protect my peace", I was able to lift and inspire so many others in life. I always wished there was someone to lift me, push me, motivate me, so how I could I could take the easy road and cut off someone clearly having a hard time just to "Protect my peace"
Lightwork isn't supposed to be easy. Don't let toxic positivity dressed up in cliche catch phrases fool you.
Tiny Ripples are worth it. It feels like the majority of the world, at least through the lens of social media, lost sight of this.
Please, Remind your soul.
