Your life experience only has to do about your vibrational relationship with this evolved being you’ve become. And, when you get that, everything begins to come into alignment for you and that’s the best example you can give to your children.

Wouldn’t you love to have your children say about you, when they’re talking to your friends:

“My mom’s always happy.”

Wouldn’t you love to have your children say about you don’t know they’re listening:

“My mom trusts me.”
“My mom thinks I’m really smart.”
“My mom thinks I have good judgement.”
“My mom thinks that I can figure things out on my own.”

Wouldn’t you just love to have your children know that’s the way you about them?

“When my mom get’s upset, she gets over it really fast.”
“My mom doesn’t hold grudges.”
“My mom doesn’t seem to worry about things.”
“Things go really good for my mom.”
“My mom lives a really good life.”
“Everybody really likes my mom.”

Isn’t that the kind of legacy that you want to leave? Or would you rather have someone say:

“Oh, my mom, she worked so hard.
She put us kids through school.
She never had a moment to herself.
She sacrificed everything that she had for us.”

We know, the other (*refering to the life is hard version) sells books, but you WANT to feel THAT way (*refering to the positive aspects version) about your mom.

“The Greatest Gift You Can Give To Your Child.” – YouTube Video by EvolutionAvenue

Monday mornings are usually quite drama filled. My boys spend all weekend long playing video games with occasional forays out into the back yard. I am very okay with their self directed activities. Everyone is happy so I’m good

When Monday morning comes, the realization that they have a week of teacher directed activities really causes quite the uproar. SJ (8) usually starts out really pissy, looking for reasons to be overly dramatic. Surprise, surprise – he finds reasons all over the place. Law of attraction is great that way!

This morning, the boys were getting their last rush on video gaming, before we had to leave for school, and intensely irritating each other in the process. Eventually the teasing and taunting turned into a pummel fest with both of them running my direction. I decided video games were done for the morning and basically yelled at them to go find something else to do.

Don’t know what I was thinking, but adding to the fire only served to create a bigger fire. SJ then went into dramatic overdrive and basically cussed me out, kid style.

Before he went stomping up the stairs to his room, he was yelling at me saying what a horrible mom I was. To punctuate his feelings about me, at that moment, he ended his tirade by yelling “You’re ugly and have a big butt!!”.

His brother, JD (6), was standing beside me at the time and was looking VERY shocked at the outburst while looking at me to see what my reaction would be. Much to SJ’s intense irritation, I burst out laughing! JD looked relieved and then rolled his eyes announcing “Dramatica!”.

JD does his own sort of Dramatica about school, but that needs a post of it’s own.

“… you cannot offer anyone something that is less advantageous to them than to see them as they feel and as they are trying to get you to see them. People argue for their limitations all the time. They say, “It’s not going well” and you try to cheer them up, and the more you try to cheer them up, the more they try to convince you that you shouldn’t be trying to cheer them up.

And they’re not deliberately trying to drag you into the abyss, it’s just all they know right now. And if you go there, you leave your Inner Being behind. And then you are down there wallowing in this discomfort together and then you come to resent them, because you felt better before you tried to help them.

So you finally get it that you cannot help anybody unless you are feeling good.

And, oh, here’s the corker! When you’re feeling really good and they’re feeling really bad, you might not be the one to help them anyway. Because the frequencies are pretty far apart. So then you just keep seeing them as you see them and knowing that somebody along the way, somebody who feels a little better than them will lead them a little, and somebody who feels a little better than them will lead them, and somebody who feels a little better than them will lead them.

And then pretty soon, they’ll be in your vibrational range and then you’ll feel exaltation together!!!”
