+ be willing to die, because fear has no place in perpetuating generational blessings +
When you’re seeking to break generational trauma lines
and begin or continue a generational blessing line,
be open to being wrong.
Which is akin to be willing to die.
The very thing that keeps trauma going is a locked-in identity.
One that is so inflexible it refuses to shift or transform at all.
It will not relinquish any belief it holds no matter what.
It is understandable, as the ego creates an identity to keep itself safe when trauma is experienced.
But rigidly holding onto that identity — no matter how safe it makes you feel and even if it served you at one time — is what will keep the trauma lines kicking.
We’re born with only two fears — of falling and of loud noises.
After that, we’re conditioned to fear all manner of things, but ultimately it’s a fear of death.
The ego is terrified of dying. It wants to keep its precious identity alive, so anything that threatens its need to exist is railed against.
This is not freedom.
This is bondage.
This is traumatic.
So be open.
Yes, even to “death.”
Be willing to see things differently.
Consider the possibility that a different view may be beneficial.
You might find that the new perspective serves you better
or
you may find that the new perspective kicks rocks and solidifies your conviction in the old perspective
or
you may see a melding of the two.
No matter what, you win.
And so do the generations coming after you.
Don’t buy into any narrative — whether it is out in the world or raging in your head — just because it is the loudest.
Usually, the louder it is the more fear is driving it.
And fear has no place in perpetuating generational blessings.
With love,
Melissa
