Relationship, Career, and Loving Yourself
This post is inspired by a reader who goes by the name LostSoul who was introduced to The Council by her mother, and now she’s asking The Council questions about her relationship, her career, and about loving herself.
LostSoul says she’s almost 25 years old and she’s living with a man who’s 21. They were together for 2 years, broke up for around 6 months when she pursued a relationship with someone she was unable to have a life with, and then got back together with her former partner. The Council says this was an experience that was needed and they ask LostSoul what she learned from this second relationship that she’s able to bring forward into her relationship with her original partner?
For a few months the relationship with her original partner was amazing. The Council says this is because she’s not the same person she was when she was with him the first time. She’s learned more of what she wants and what she doesn’t want from the other relationship. And there is a new hope that she can change her thoughts and create her relationship with her original partner the way she wishes.
But she’s been back with him for a little over a year and sometimes it’s still amazing, and sometimes her partner has too much to drink with his friends and makes choices that hurt LostSoul emotionally and she gets sick. He’s apologized for his behavior, but later behaves the same way again.
Currently LostSoul has told her boyfriend to stop drinking completely if he want to continue their relationship, and she says he has, but she asks The Council if she’s forcing her boyfriend to face personal issues he’s not ready to face. The Council says she’s giving him choices and that’s what this reality is about and this can be a positive thing. By accepting who he is she opens the door for him to accept himself, experience the love, and see how he wishes to move forward.
LostSoul says she’s haunted by the moments her boyfriend has hurt her, yet she wants to be in this relationship. The Council asks if she’s getting what she wants. As she looks for what she wants instead of seeing what’s not there, she’ll be able to create more of what she wants and she opens the door for more positive experiences. The Council reminds LostSoul that sending love into any challenging relationship will eventually change it for the better.
LostSoul asks The Council about her work as an au pair, which she says she does with a heavy heart because she’s unable to get an admin job due to lack of experience. The Council says what LostSoul wanted in this lifetime was to move around from place to place and they ask her to look for any kind of job that allows her to do this. She wanted to work outdoors, not indoors. And they say if LostSoul begins at the bottom of any job that gives her the experience of moving around, she’ll move forward.
Lastly LostSoul says it’s as if her soul is telling her to wake up and start loving herself and feel free. The Council says this freedom is the movement she wants to experience. As she dreams big she’ll create happiness and the love she wishes to have in a relationship with herself, and it will begin to show itself to her in her improved feelings. They advise her to have an open mind and heart and begin to show love to herself.
