259. The Firemaker

It has been long believed that a good fire shares with the maker both truth and gift. Should he take the time to truly connect with the fire to which he gives birth to. When the fire maker puts his hands to work, he begins to spin, the spindle that will soon create an ember. Quickly, something inside of him begins to grow, a rise.

258. Holding healthy boundaries(Campfire Sessions with Bev Ehrlich)

Beverly Ehrlich is a relationship coach. She firmly believes that we heal, grow and thrive through healthy and cherishing relationships that show appreciation for each other’s strengths and build on them. Feeling helpless and strained when her husband of many years found himself in the depths of depression, they turned for support to Terry Real’s Relational Life Therapy (RLT). She has since dedicated her life to bringing couples back into healthy connectedness. Beverly encourages her clients to stand up for themselves with love while cherishing their partner at the same time. She teaches strategies that help clients speak their truth so that their partner can hear them and come into repair quicker each time they have a fallout. Her core passion and mission are educating and empowering full respect living with a deeper level of consciousness and authentic expression.

255. Let this be your understanding

Don't let the future trouble you. You will come to it if that is what you must—possessed of the same reason you apply now to the present.

252. Talk to yourself

If you take time to talk to the animals, you will know each other. If you do not talk to them, you will not know them. And what you do not know, you fear. What one fears, they destroy. The spider is a great example of the medicine from Chief Don George because seeing a spider instantly inspires fear within the heart which raises the instinct to destroy that spider, to place ourselves on the legs of that spider. The same holds true if you do not take the time to talk with yourself and the world around you. You become uninformed about what is happening, allowing yourself space to build up that level of fear. Within that layer of fear, it opens up a hole internally. And just like the natural order of things, that hole collects dirt from all around it in order to fill itself in. This is true internally as well. Those holes of unknown fear, fill themselves in just the same. The dirt that it uses, more times than not, takes the form of depression and anger, thus building the response to kill that spider. Because we never took the time to look at it and speak with it, leaving that spider crushed underneath the boot of fear. This is what those gaps cause us to do to ourselves. We destroy ourselves and everything around us. We pick up bad habits, and unhealthy things. We look elsewhere, when really the answers are right next to us, simply because we stop taking the time to check in with ourselves in those people around us. We stop tending to the fields that lie internally. Leaving that hole for depression and anger to fill in. So take the time to speak with yourself and those around you. Tend to those fields. Fill in the holes yourself before they do it for you.

250. The medicine of balance

There are moments in which we smile just like there are moments that we must cry. All of this comes and goes, the same as the storm blows through the peaks of the mountain inside each of us, these storms, sing to our will to win, just like they sing to our will to lose, bringing with them the thunders of both good and evil. It's these storms that conjure up our will to live and our willingness to run away from life as well. While it's true that we never asked to be born, we came on this journey on the same red road, carrying our path and the purpose that nature gave us, along with the trails that we must walk. So whether it's under the warmth of the sun or the cold, chilly. Moonlit sky of night, we must find it inside to just keep going.

249.Misconception

Never in the course of this hunt for destruction does he breathe in that beauty around him. And it causes him one day to finally find himself standing in the surroundings of a desolate and burnt down field, 1s which that fuel for the destruction was that traumatic vocabulary, while in his own eyes, it's believed to be an act of survival on the outside. The truth is, his behavior  was based on the bias in the need to self-protect.  Also, as those traumas build up along our journey, it becomes our task and a need to deeply explore our perception, and ask ourselves questions before we react. Because sometimes survival isn't slowly laying on the edge of the blade. More times than not, true survival lies upon the entire size of the knife.
