Many teachings suggest to let go, clear and release the negative things within ourselves, but perhaps we missed a differnt way to look at what we are trying to release. So before we hurry to remove, clear, or release anything from ourselves ... it may be wise to make sure we haven't missed what they actually could help us with.

We are going to explore what many have been telling us about the negative things within us. Many teachings suggest we need to let go, clear or release the negative things within us before we can feel better or advance in our physical expressions here on earth.

Hang on for this may push some buttons at first, as anything does when it disrupts something we have become comfortable with. This different thought pattern or consciousness may challenge those of us who have been involved in clearing these negative parts of ourselves us up to now.

Take the time to see “how you personally feel" about a different explanation. The time has come for us to question many of the things we have been told and were taught in the past. For deep inside we know so much more than many of us give ourselves credit for. Have we ever thought that getting rid of something is separating from it? Would Love separate or bring together? Divine Unconditional Love is the grandest Love and It does not separate anything, ever. Perhaps it is time to take a closer look at these ideas of getting rid of things more closely.

There may be a precious gift in understanding "what these negative things remind us of".
So before we hurry to remove, clear, or release anything from ourselves ... it may be wise to make sure we haven't missed what they actually help us with.
Once we understand from the heart of Divine Love ... we just may decide not to get rid of anything.

Perhaps letting the negative things "be" would be a wiser choice on our part ... rather than letting them go. For what we hold and are trying to release ... is a realization about ourselves.

In a Divine Love Consciousness it becomes hard to believe we are to let anything go
or that there could be anything we are to separate ourselves from. The negative situations we hold within "remind us of our repetitive patterns". There is really nothing to release.
And if we hold a Loving Consciousness when these negative patterns rise within us ... all we need to do is look at them as an old friend, as a "reminder of the patterns" we constantly repeat and then choose otherwise, choose grander!

If we release our negative experiences, if we let them go ... if we sent them somewhere where they can't come back to us, we will not have that "internal mechanism to remind us of what we usually do" ... nor will we gain the understanding of how to make a better choice by choosing the opposite the next time this wisdom surfaces within us.

The beauty in it all is ... we can easily define Who We Are and who we would like to be from this point on, after having and seeing an experience of who we did not like to be. So as far as releasing or letting go anything ... it is just another form of separation. This crucial piece of information may be a very important part of us that holds the key of showing us the path to Who We Really Are and wish to Be.

If we stay in the moment, the now, and hold a Loving Consciousness in our hearts and minds, we will know exactly what to do every time one of these little reminders rises in us ... we will make a wiser choice every time, without getting rid of anything.

Separation at any level is not God /Divine Unconditional Love. This Beautiful Love does not separate any part of Itself ... only we do.
