Reflections from Mushiba ~ Emotion
Emotion is a built in component of the earth plane experience. According to Waith in his class, Gaining Self Awareness ~ A Beginning, “You are on the earth plane to feel ~ to have emotion.”
Life on the earth plane consists of different spectrums ~ a spectrum is a tool for learning unconditional love and nonjudgement. Emotion is a spectrum ~ the Spectrum of Emotions ~ in which it has, when viewed from a linear perspective, extremes. What might appear to be highly emotional or non emotional to one person may not be so to another because of this Spectrum of Emotions ~ and, thus, regardless of the emotional state of a person, they are somewhere in their Spectrum of Emotions and need to be respected for that.
Waith is continually guiding us to live our life ~ and, foundational to living is our Spectrum of Emotions upon which our issues are molded, our experiences created and our behaviors manifested. Ah-h-h, the earth plane!

One of tghe great wonders of the earth plain is emotion. I know that emotion is what motivates me to do great things on the one hand or to wallow in a vat of self pity on the other. Yet it is always important for me to realize that not all people feel the same way I do about a particular issue. I think unrequited love is for me the worst yet the best example of this Spectrum of Emotion — either way we must move on and “live our lives”… and that isn’t always so simple.

Skittles “taste the rainbow” for love, respect, and harmony. I eventually shift to my element when living out the spectrum of emotions. It gives me an understanding and connections to others. Thank God for the correlation, in which I acknowledge this as my strength for balance and love for others.

The “Spectrum of Emotions”,
I sure traveled, and continue to do so, along my spectrum of Emotions uncountable times. If gold stars would be handed out for experiencing emotions, I would own quite a collection.
We know that we are learning and growing through disharmony, but do we remember and embrace the growth that results from going through difficult times when we are struggling and are in the middle of chaos, and do we then say to ourselves: “Wow, this is wonderful, I am gaining all this awareness, I am learning and I am strengthening”. That doesn’t exactly pop into my mind. We sometimes forget that the way we are learning our lessons on the earth plane is through the emotional structure.
Waith counsels us to “Be in Harmony with the Disharmony”.
Sounds very good, but is it easy to do? To be in harmony with our own imbalances can be a true challenge. We might not have the control in the concrete of the lessons and issues we have taken on, but we have the responsibility in the concrete to work through them.
I try to have an emergency plan on hand to bring in some lightheartedness when I feel myself in the learning of my lessons moving into a dark arena.
For example: Besides calling upon my AP and the light, I call in my Golden Light Stabilizer, a dimension of self I created for self, who knows and reminds me of who I am at the core of my being, “a beautiful energy”, despite chaos and imperfection. She knows how to soothe and talk sense into me and makes me smile.
Even we understand that the dark motivates us to do things that hopefully helps us to grow and change, but we don’t want to get stuck there. We want to bring ourselves as fast as possible back to lightheartedness.
What do you do to soothe Self when experiencing going out of balance?
I found Waith Words in my files that helped me in my understanding of how to live more in harmony with my imbalances.
Waith Words for the Week
Joy means that you have found a balance within Self ~
you come to the balance and have the joy.
And each time, then, that you are out of balance,
remember that you will be back in balance and will have the joy ~ and hold onto the joy.
Eventually, the joy is there even in the imbalance.

The key is to remember during the challenging times, those moments of temporary balance and joy we achieve within Self.

I can wallow in depression quite easily if I let myself slide into that. But eventually I know I will climb my way out of that black hole! That knowledge does give me some comfort. And I also try to remember to be lighthearted ~ at first I sometimes have to pretend or force it, but if I keep at it, my normal lightheartedness comes back to the forefront! There are so many energies in my environment to help me remember to be lighthearted! One of them, of course, is my feline friend, Clyde. (My other kitties are also assisting me, but Clyde is quite another thing!) He will act quite silly and keep at me unti I get up out of my doldrums and play!

Mushiba,
There have been so many times that I wished that I was a male.
All of the emotional baggage that comes with being female really
made me sick. B ut as I lived longer and learned how emotionally
out of it some men can be, I changed my wish. The pain can be
very rough. So I came to the conclusion that it is a much more
rewarding to feel than to not feel.
I feel love for you and thank you for sharing
