The Enemy Within




Do you really have enemies or is the real enemy within?

Is your adversary really someone who dislikes you or is it someone who is just a reflection of your shadow side?  What I mean by shadow side is the side that you do not show.  The side that may need healing.   The side that may lead people to believe that you are not a good person, or that you are weird or even devilish. 

Your enemy,  if that is truly a real thing, just might be able to show you something about yourself if you look a little closer.   A person can become an enemy without even knowing it.  There are some situations that have manifested itself into your life because that is the way it has always been.  And since you are more interested in being a part of something and not seeing it for what it really is, the cycle continues.  If you were to break the cycle you will become an enemy of the enemy.  A person can become an enemy if they do things that are against a person's free will, impede them in some way or take something that was not willfully given.  However you gain your title, in order to become an enemy, you have to be recognized as one.

From the Montagues and Capulets to the Jones and Williams, born into the enemy cycle. Born into a family and taught to dislike another family for whatever reason.  The cycles will continue without ever getting to the core of the matter.  Sometimes your enemy will be the first one to see your light.  They will envy you based on the fact that they cannot and will not ever be you, so ways are created to dim your light, distract you off your path and make you look like the enemy. Your enemy already knows you,  that's why we rarely are deceived by people we don't know.

 You have the power to choose how you want to navigate your way through this life.  You decide who the people are in your life, so if you decide to keep an enemy around, do it with intent.   There is truth in the saying, "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer."  An enemy will always reveal things to you that a friend won't.  Having an enemy along the way is not all bad, just change your perspective and be willing to see people for who they are and the roles they play and use it to your advantage.


Peace & Love
