Without Intentions We Are Puppets

Without Intentions We Are Puppets

I have many other topics that I am inspired to write about these days as we
are being slingshot through doorways of new creative opportunities by the current alignment of the stars and planets. But before I step forward into those energies I want to tag a little more information onto the topic of intentions that I
wrote about last week.
I believe that intentions are a vital part of a balanced life. They focus our thoughts, actions and dreams and send them in specific directions. Without having an intention for the direction that we would like our life to go, we can easily be influenced by energies around us that may have malicious objectives, and we can become the unconscious builder of those objectives. In other words, if we allow ourselves to wander without purpose through life, we may be enslaved by the puppeteer who gathers our strings and makes us perform to its script. Some of the scripts that exist today are old, outdated, and destructive, driven by greed and power mongering. Other scripts are more creative, divinely inspired, cooperative and harmonious. Without choosing a path to follow we will undoubtedly be influenced by many internal and external forces, and all of those forces are not positive and do not have our highest good at their core.
Unfortunately many people feel defeated in life when they have been wounded physically, mentally, emotionally or spiritually and they let go of the intentions for their lives. We give them nicknames like “lost souls” or “the walking wounded” and secretly hope that that never happens to us. Sometimes we use a significant amount of energy or medication to keep our mask of normalcy on to show the outside world that we are okay and socially acceptable when every cell in our being cries out from the pain of deep generational scars.
Instead of understanding that we are in the critical phases of our healing journey, we drop our intentions and surrender to any force that will drag us along. Sadly this is the opposite of what is best for us at the time. When we are feeling least able to be positive in any way it is important for us to remember why we are feeling that way (usually because we have not manifested our intentions), and go back to our earlier intentions, pick them up, dust them off and own them again.
Cut the puppet strings and set your intentions. Move forward with your healing journey, because what you resist persists. And don’t forget to ask for help and accept it when it comes knocking at your door, because positive change is possible.
