I will never forget the feeling that overcame me knowing that I was “different” when I was a child. Society expects us to be a certain way, and it can be draining. Getting good grades meant a feeling of constant anxiety and pressure to do well in school. Disappointing teachers and my parents was the only thing I thought about. Elementary school was a place I never wanted to be and it was never fun. I met a few teachers a long the way who “got me”, which was always a blessing! Still, the feeling was always there. Why would we want our children to feel this way? Why are we putting so much pressure on our kids? Wouldn’t we rather our children to feel important, loved and accepted no matter what? Grades; What are they actually a reflection of anyway? All these questions. I have one answer to all these questions, and I am sure I can sit here and come up with so many more! That one answer. Let our children just be. Let them be “different”. Just because they are expected to be a certain way does not mean they have to be. It is up to us to realize their needs. It is up to us to understand what their path is in life and it may not be one that we adhere to.
I was blessed with a child who is “different” and this blessing has shown up for the both of us to understand life better and to allow our souls to experience everything it needs to move upward and onward. He is a beautiful kind, compassionate, loving soul. He struggles in school and it has never came easy to him. He is surrounded by four other siblings who never struggled and had always brought home good grades without having to even try most of the time. I am not discrediting them. All my children are my greatest blessing. They are shining bright in their own way, as my struggling child is as well. Our education system is set up for our kids to either “pass or fail”. It is up to us to see the beauty in our children and not base their shining light on what they received on a test they took. It is up to us to make them feel worthy no matter how they are doing in school. Things need to change. There are many other things in life to make a child feel powerful and worthy of their gifts. We are the ones who have to recognize them and bring it out in them.
Times are changing and our changing times are only going to keep changing until we reach a level of vibration to bring love back. Love. The four letter word that will truly make this world a better place. Love erases the fear and anxiety in children which goes into adulthood. Love makes a child feel whole and powerful. Loving our children unconditionally no matter how different they are in a world that expects them to be a certain way will bring them peace knowing that the only difference they are carrying is to take them to a path that may be unknown. That unknown path is a journey, a journey that he or she chose to re-incarnate to figure out. I believe we all get to choose our lives and all our experiences that our soul needs to experience once we are in our physical human body. Our soul never changes, only our path.
I love you.
Love and Light.
