Hello & welcome!
We may live in one of the most beautifulest places in
England, but are we truly happy?
Everything starts with ourselves. We can look for happiness
externally but if we aren’t happy inside how can we find
anything outside? I hear a lot of moaning, blaming others
for problems, problems around the city, but everyone is
doing their best, the best of their ability. Some of the
poorest people have the biggest hearts and turn this love
into action, we can learn by these good deeds. By serving
others this in turn will help you forget about your own
situation and give you inner peace. Maybe before you
criticise others, you can try volunteering or helping
someone in need.
We exchange energy all the time, be it through speech,
emails or a mere thought. If someone is angry towards us
and we are angry back, there is an energy formed between
us and the only way of breaking these bonds, of releasing
undesirable energies is by giving out love and forgiveness.
No matter how awful someone is to us, we can deflect their
energies by being kind, compassionate and understanding
towards them. It’s very hard for some, but with practice it
becomes easier.
We are all souls evolving and growing and just because we
look different we are all mortal and have a soul essence. We
came from the earth, we are part of the earth. “Love thy
neighbour” are three words worth remembering.
With love,
Therese
