Actions speak louder than words...

We have all heard that saying, and it's one of those sayings that is very true. These were the first words that were on a letter that I found in an old notebook of mine - from late 2014 and early 2015. The book was complete and I was about to throw it out, but while flicking through it I found the following note/letter slipped inside. The letter was a piece of advice I wrote to myself. I sometimes write to myself and there is definitely an element of self therapy / advice / guidance in these letters. A bit like meditation. Anyhow, the letter was written - word by word - as follows:
"Actions speak louder than words! Words may be a lie, action's aren't. And ultimately we are all seeking "Love" in everything that we say and do. No one ever does any actions against you. They do actions that are right for them, and how they feel. So the best course of action here is to come from love, in your action and words. Equally if you are not feeling the reciprocation or love from any source, and it doesn't make you feel good, back away. Surround yourself only with love. Love for what you do and who you are! The saying "we get the love we think we deserve" says a lot. What is it that you think you deserve? E.g. You don't have to do anything to gain people's love. If people want you in their life, they will make the effort. Equally if you want to keep them in your life you must also make the effort. However, a clap can never be made with a single hand. If there is no reciprocation, and that's no judgement on them, then also take that as 'actions speaks louder than words', and step back. Make the room for the right energy. It is as simple as that."
Now these words - I am sure - can ring true for many. We can easily trap ourselves in thinking why others take certain actions, and yet also why we take certain actions, but the clear awareness of this is that we will only ever act from our own comfort zones. The zone may not be exactly where you want to be, and maybe it's the universe's (you-in-verse) way to bring you in alignment of what's to come.
So people wise, sometimes people match up to each others energy zones (that's when there is a sense of comfort-ability), other times it's uncomfortable. Normally it is uncomfortable when we are being challenged to either rise to a scenario (higher energy), or actually realise that you are no longer at that (lower) energy. When it feels comfortable, there is something that is resonating for you. Life is just energy and vibrations. We are simply all vibrating atoms at certain levels of energy interacting with other energy balls. Some balls are challenging and some are not! (Note: I am laughing to myself that I have reverted to calling human beings balls! But then aren't we truly just souls without the label of a certain identity?! I must write about identity soon. OK, I digress).
The key is that it is always trying to alert you to LOVE. Either helping you to move away from a lower energy place to a higher one, or simply removing energies from your life that are no longer of value to your being. Sometimes when an experience (if you look back and join-the-dots) brings you to an uncomfortable place, it can be daunting. But then a shift was required, and if you just flow with what is happening within you, you will start to see things change, both internally and externally.
A task I think is important, is to look at the varying energy fields around you - this relates to both people and things - and declutter those elements that no longer have any significance for you. People wise, you are being asked to release energies for other energies to come into place (for you and them). Things wise you are being asked to give away your items (for sale or charity).
Ultimately if you can come to a realisation - and more powerfully an acceptance - that life is always going to be a constant flow of changing/vibrating energy, and whether that energy field changes with you, or away from you shouldn't dishearten you. And as the saying goes on a flight safety demonstration, "please put on your own mask, before you can help others" the same saying applies here; Please show yourself self-love, before you can show that love to others.
So I hope today (as in the day you are reading this) you can look at what energy fields are working for you, and those that are not, and make that change.
Declutter people, things and also the ways of your being that no longer serve you. Actions truly do speak louder than words, so - as I will do too - take the action plan to do something about it. Trust me when I say that you will be able to join-the-dots of this action very soon.
