“United we stand, divided we fall.” ~ A phrase used throughout history in reference to governments
Happy New Year everyone!
I would like to share a very interesting analogy. This analogy is about the way we personally govern ourselves, and the way governments rule countries. It compares us human beings to the US system of government. It illustrates how we either self-sabotage (ie. rule ourselves ‘badly’) or integrate our power and move forward to what we want.
In the American system there are 3 levels of government:
- The Executive
- The Legislative
- The Judiciary
The analogy has us look at ourselves from the point of view of all three of these levels of government. They exist inside of us.
- The Executive part of us decides what we want and what is really important to us.
- The Legislative part of us is our thoughts, perceptions, and the actions we take.
- The Judiciary is the judgments of right or wrong within ourselves.
When we are well balanced, all three levels of government within ourselves are integrated and working together to achieve the outcome we choose.
However, many of us are out of balance, which means the levels of government within ourselves are not working together. We have the Executive part of ourselves deciding something is important. Yet, the Legislative defaults to old beliefs that do not support the Executive branch. And then we have the Judicial part of us judging our value, worth, and ability to create what we want so that we end up out of balance. All the levels of government within us are arguing with each other, and we can become stale and stuck and repetitive.
To really get back in our power, we need to integrate the parts of ourselves into one voice. Many of us have different voices inside of ourselves and we are ‘chasing our tails’ rather than being a united voice. Much like the three levels of government!
For myself, I know when I am integrated and when I am out of harmony. My physical body tells me, my emotional body acts up, or I just don’t create what I want.
This would be an amazing year for all of us to watch our focus and keep committed to unifying the different parts of ourselves into one voice.
Personally I talk to myself in the third person, and take the time to clarify what I really want to create. Then I direct the other ‘voices’ in me to get in line with the highest part of me.
As we create peace within ourselves, that will ripple out and have a significant effect on those around us.
Have a great year!
