Energy & personality

The problems we have generally stem from having been reared in our early years by people with little understanding of energy and so with little appreciation of our own energy. We therefore find ourselves developing a persona - a mask - to keep those people happy (or off our case) and behind which to protect our energy from their gross insensitivities. The same thing can happen in later life as well. If you find yourself suddenly living with the wrong person then you'll learn all sorts of ways of cutting off and protecting yourself. But there again if you start to live with the right person - someone who appreciates you for who you really are rather than who they would like you to be - then you'll find yourself naturally beginning to drop the habits of self-protection (relax) and start to interact energetically with them. Such an environment - one of understanding and love (one without the other isn't much good) - is probably the most effective healer there is - in fact in many cases it is the only hope. What our energy wants more than anything else in the whole wide world is to come out to play. For that we need good company, or we need to be good yielders - good at transforming mediocre or bad company into good.

A really tremendous analysis of the state of play in existence for many, and perhaps to some degree all. Thanks alot. No doubt this explains how so many of us will love pretty much anything in the world except other human beings; because we have been damaged by human beings before, and fear being damaged again when we open ourselves up in the way necessitated by love.

Indeed some can construct entire fake identities on top of the forgotten real one just to get through their days on this lamentably dysfunctional blue planet.

You should see how things are where I come from:)

Your sentiments are profoundly true. You have managed to give clarity to what it is that human beings are confused and hurt by. Yes, we hurt each other, but what permanently disables us as individuals and as a collective, is surely fear?
These 'healing' energies have to be released from within - and what triggers this release is a conscious decision to open yourself up to what you fear most. It is impossible to benefit from love and fulfilment without surrendering the mask. Pain and hurt are of course the by-products of encounters with the wrong people, but without being open and true, the right person will not recognise the real you. Truth is the least we owe ourselves and each other.
