I am thankful for understanding this energy…for 2
reasons. 1. I can more effectively help
people!! (Yay!). and 2. I am really
thankful that I am beginning to understand people who aren’t me!
There have been enough people ‘like me’ to help…and make a
living with my unique value…BUT…seeing the perspective of those NOT like me
really opens the doors to helping!
‘Like me’ looks like this:
Sensitive to the point of allergies, anxiety, depression…self critical
to the point of autoimmune conditions (I’m on my 2nd!) and overwhelm. And reactive to the point of exhaustion,
defensiveness, and PAIN…
‘Like me’ is created by asking the question, “what is wrong
with me…” on a multi-daily basis. Go
ahead…ask away…you get the above!!
‘Not like me’ includes this pattern… “I don’t GET it!” I always put my attention on what I did
get. A small thanks. And now I see it…here’s how I saw…
I had this experience of some (most) people walking out of
my experience saying to Laura…’what the hell just happened? I don’t get it.’ At first, I was annoyed and frustrated…because
that’s now how I think.
I did 3 years of post-doctoral neurology…300 hours…and I got
2 things. 1. You and your brain
transforms and becomes WHATEVER you practice.
2. I don’t like neurology. And…I…was…completely
satisfied with the result. My brain is
practiced at finding solutions…because I practiced feeling ALONE. You know…do it yourself…or it ain’t getting’
done. AKA…if you don’t GET IT…nobody is
coming to help. So I focused on what I
do GET.
And for a LOOOONG time…It included a careful analysis of… “what
is wrong with me.” The FUNNY thing is…the
ANSWER…was that crappy QUESTION! Haha…uuuh…that’s
the pain of my life you are laughing at.
So I was having this experience…of people not getting me…and
one of my most brilliant patients showed up for me! She came to a group we offered, and seemed
grumpy. The rest of us were laughing…and
she was frowning!
She showed up FOR ME…for THIS…it turned out that she didn’t
understand something (even brilliant people start from ZERO)…and decided (for
my and your benefit) to be mad about not getting that point…for the ENTIRE 2
hours!
Bless her…that is a big sacrifice to make…to help me get
this point. And a BIG point it is…
If you have FAITH…TRUST…in God…Nature…Love…Karma…ANYTHING…!!! You PRACTICE that faith by TRUSTING that
every moment you get exactly what you NEED.
Of ALL the details of neurology and nerve pathways…I GOT one
thing… TWO if you consider ‘not being on
the right path’ a learning experience.
(You will be served to consider that!!)
So now…I tell my patients…you aren’t SUPPOSED to ‘get’
everything…you are supposed to get ONE THING.
And it is good for your heart and soul…to TRUST…that it is the RIGHT
thing.
Go ahead…you will know…cuz it will ‘hit home’ or ‘make sense’
or somehow ‘ring true.’
PLEASE…don’t regret or mourn what you didn’t get…LOVE and
cherish what you DID GET!!!!!
