Elect Your SELF for a Change

Don’t place yourself in a cage and give someone else the key; choose to live a life of freedom.

ELECTION DYSTOPIA

There’s a good chance that if you live in the United States, by the time you read this article, the results of the 2020 election have since been revealed. And even if you are from another one of the great nations that populate our planet, there’s a good chance you have also had a ringside seat to the battle for the American presidency.

This year’s election season has been utterly surreal; it’s like a political “Tiger King” miniseries filled with so many unimaginable twists and turns that one can hardly believe this was not a work of fiction. Yet because there is SO much at stake, many people have taken every moment and every second to heart, waiting with baited breath to see whether or not “we the people” will be able to get back to “business as usual” or choose to take a step onward, upward and forward.

So when this “Good Vibe” girl started dipping into profound sadness, utter rage, and, as a result, making herself physically sick over the political and sociological events in the past few months, I knew it was time to break the spell.

REMEMBERING…

Without meaning to, I realized that I had started to buy in to the idea that someone or something else has control over me: over my thoughts, words, actions, and how I choose to live my life, which defies EVERYTHING I know to be true in my heart. So it’s no surprise that my body, mind and spirit were doing all they could to let me know that I was focusing in a way that was truly detrimental to my well-being.

Didn’t I remember that EVERY human being (including ME) has their own Point of Attraction, and will therefore suffer or thrive based on what THEY think, feel, attract and believe?
