we live our lives from fear and manipulation we operate from the dark feminine or dark masculine aspects of life. In this case our relationships are ego based. We are more in competition with people and judgmental of them rather than in service, evolving the nature of relationships in our world.

When we live from love that comes from our core being we operate from that awareness when we become more awake spiritually. Many relationships change as people awaken spiritually because we start to see more of the hidden dynamics of the relationships we engage in.

More shadow elements are revealed in relationships and staying with someone in relationship becomes a matter of whether we are coming from spiritual integrity by doing so. As we integrate more of the light of who we are we transmute our dysfunctional shadow patterns. We begin to see where we are off in our thinking and where we fail to be coming from our heart. More hidden elements are exposed bringing up more issues. We begin to see those areas in our relationships where we have to deny ourselves in order to maintain them. We then begin the steps of having our mind and heart working together.

One partner may be moving forward at a more accellerated rate than the other. One partner may be more balanced in their energies of heart and mind than the other. Staying together just creates more conflict because of the gap that widens between where each person is operating from. If we begin our relationship out of balance then coming into balance can bring us different choices that are aligned with the cohesiveness of our mind and heart working together with larger parts of ourselves.

If one person in a relationship is a little more awake than the other the conflict will intensify due to the lack of awareness. We cannot try to push a partner to grow in relationship for we are then interfering with their life process. All we can do is surrender to the flow, following our developing inner connection while taking action in our outer world.

An important point to make here is that being spiritually awake from a loving consciousness has very little to do with the jobs we have or where we choose to live. It has everything to do the energy we bring to those activities we engage in. We sometimes need to do certain things that are temporary in nature to get us where we are to be in the big picture. When we are spiritually awake we realize this.

We may need to go into places that our personality would rather not be in order to be in service. Being spiritually awake, living life from love means following the inner guidance that comes from our Higher Self. Sometimes this means taking action that won't be popular by some for being awake has absolutely nothing to do with maintaining an image. When we are just trying to maintain an image we lack courage. Being awake means living from spiritual integrity. This is how we make changes by taking a stand. The right path for us is not always the easiest path for us.

Sometimes it means standing alone, yet at the same time being at one with everything else on the planet. This means we are being who we are without attachment. Change is necessary to evolve. At times we must say no to someone even though this is the hardest thing to do. New Beginnings will reveal themselves in their own time. We will close some doors and open new ones while standing in Truth and walking the path of evolution.

We are waking up a whole new world. It's time to dance, body and soul together as a whole. Let's glow.
