Rejection is the phrase most often used
To interpret events or circumstances dubbed what happened/happens to you
Fathom with me for a single moment
Rejection is someone else’s opinion
There’s another word with three syllables too ?
It’s called REFLECTION
and I wanna share how I see its meaning with you…
There’s no way to beam out fully on all sides…(ok there prolly is but…)
You know when you see a sunrise or sunset
how we gravitate toward the light?
So as we gravitate /beam/face the light
We are also facing away from all that seems to be dark…
(Kindergarten physics …stay with me)
Rejection is another’s conclusion
about what happened when
that whatever happened to you…
Ask yourself:
“Am I gonna allow my now be interpreted?”
“Am I gonna allow my days my good I’ve lived be left to someone else’s concluding?”
“Or am I gonna own with my conviction and joy and reasoning?”
That where x y z sees rejection…
I see what I’ve always been doing:
Reflecting!!!!
(It even rhymes :):):))
Stay with me…
This isn’t silly willy nilly doodle all the day (I loved that song ) …
but it is a way to counter the blarings within that say …
“this and that and that and then went wrong”
No and no and no again….
Not rejection…
But reflection, dear friend…
You can’t face and be the light
while facing and being the dark
And where you were let go
dumped
betrayed
kicked out
asked to leave
told this isn’t gonna work out
Whatever whatever
You can see the pulls that wanna conclude
“that someone did this and that to me”
Or you can take the deeper view
of seeing the power and force that needed to nudge you to where you glim more brightly …
Had you stayed with him
Had you stayed with her
With that job
that address
that title
that university
that career
That mortgage co
That bank
Etc Etc
How oh how oh how would you be able to face the light you’re reflecting now ?
And maybe you’re rolling your eyes and saying
The nerd Tre strikes again putting a positive on a negative spin…
But it’s not a spin
(Tho I am a nerd?)
It’s a flip upside the head
to the thought patterns that keep you stuck in victimhood…
Oh I will land this poem plane soon…
But my heart to yours stand with this amazing truth:
There is nothing wrong with you…
Say it with me…
Say it “there is nothing wrong with me”
Keep saying it…
Say it out loud…
Yes you will feel like a friek…
(It’s so worth it)
There is zero wrong with me …
I can’t be duped anymore to be made to believe
I was rejected
or ousted
or blah dee blah
A deeper current nudged me to be the beam that I am!!! And how!
Ok….
So …
Deep breath…
Because I know what I’m asking too…
This means you loose the grip on the story you’ve for years clung to…
I promise that story isn’t gonna be mad at you…
I promise that story isn’t gonna yell
or call you names
or even accuse you of abandoning him or her…
I have a hunch that story will just stop sounding so loud…
As you let your heart and thought
face the light and beam your reflection up
through the clouds…
And seriously if you need me to just call it:
You love too big
too forever
too enduring
to ever quit
And Love won’t let you stay where it’s unseen…
And Love won’t let you be swallowed up by attitudes that are mean…
And Love won’t allow its light to be squelched…
And thus sometimes the changes that occur seem to happen to us
Because we wouldn’t have journeyed forward any other way…
We don’t quit…
We do and be the Love thang…
My heart to yours
In no particular order
this is how I was healed of feeling a failure
and incapable at lots and much…
And after a long day on the road today
I’m so grateful for getting this simple lesson about reflecting in this sweet way…
My heart to yours
Tre ~
