I remember being told; as I healed, the people around me will drop away and more people of like-minds will fill the gaps. I did understand that with my husband, who is now my ex-husband, but I did not understand the whole impact it would have on my life. I did know my husband's path was not mine; that was clear to me, even though it still was very painful to separate. I think there will always be an inner conflict when I am torn at what feels comfortable and familiar with people I love, and yet, I know deep inside that there is more for me out there, and I do not know where, what, or with whom,. Not to mention the confusion of the people who were very involved in my life. It is not only an adjustment for me, but for them. The people in my life could see a distinct difference in me, one they do not know, and this is very foreign to them. There will be a resistance for change on both sides; change is scary for the person going through it, and the people who do not understand these changes, it is not always acceptable, and it is through resistance that keeps them from supporting my changes. There are choices though, ignoring the changes and staying in the previous pattern, with the previous thoughts, actions, and company is an option, however, not a good one. Not adapting to the changes causes stagnation within the spirit, and as time moves along, causes a death of the spirit. Easiest is not the best in this case. To move along with flow of energy that is prominent in a spirit, and leaving everything familiar you know, and immersing yourself into the unknown, is probably the hardest thing a person could do, but necessary! In order to stay true to my spirit, my soul’s purpose in life, there must be a rebirth of the self to progress, and ascend. Once there is complete compliance, inner peace will follow. The people who occupied so much of my previous self will either; understand and cheer me on, but not very likely, or they will retreat and isolate me, what actually happened. Their actions are normal, people do not know how to act or react to what they are not familiar with, and it is their lessons to learn, and the best I can do is to wish them the best in their understanding, and send them prayers. The best I can do for myself is to follow my spirit and do my best along the way.
