- Sue: I'm thinking about all those times in my life, whether it be learning a musical instrument or understanding my spiritual gifts or talents on my athletic side or whatever. Where people said, No, you don't have that or no, that's unlikely. And that might have been a statement made by someone that I professionally or personally respect. Something I speak about often because I think with a lot of what goes on in life, particularly when it comes to spiritual gifts, you know, it's not like you have a label or it's not like you have a way in the physical world to confirm that what you are experiencing is real. And while we can certainly make the accommodation that everything you experience is r real to you and therefore is real, is factual, is your experience. It's still something that nobody can point to by looking at the label on you and saying, No, yeah, ⁓ yeah, you've got that. As ever, it comes down to discernment. How much do you value somebody who is sharing information about you that is not something you asked for? It's rude. It's none of their business. How much of that do you tolerate and believe for yourself? And then you find yourself in a place where, of course I can't believe this. I know what I am. I know what's real to me, and whether anybody else resonates with that and how they see me as seeing those gifts or accepting me for who I say I am has to be thought of with your self love and discernment and trusting your intuition in line. And then what? Well And you go about living your life and not trying to obsess on the fact of whether you have this or haven't. If it's true to your experience, then it's truth. I talk about frequently how difficult it is to stand alone in truth and be silent and yet confident. Confirmation with my watch. That i everything is as it should be. And when I say should be, it is what your destiny is. Something that you got our first bear sighting. That was a confirmation. Little cub. Well, that's a little cub, probably bigger than Rita, so Seventy or eighty pounds. But nonetheless, it's spring. Again, here's a perfect example of the fact that I could not get a camera on the sighting of the bear. But nonetheless you can discern from the sound of my voice that actually happened, right? Trusting yourself with your own gifts is the same. Confirmation with a woodpecker. It's one of the reasons why I have learned it's always best in my life when using discernment to To have a certain level of detachment. In other words, if I'm listening to videos where people are referring to the general viewers as you, to know, detach from that. It's not you. It might apply to you, but generally speaking, keeping your mind open and balanced and not leaping to that kind of conclusion with that level of detachment because your discernment is working with you is much healthier. It's not that you're denying the words, it's not that you're even agreeing, because after all You has to have some level of an observational side in order for you to see clearly. And the reason why detachment is so important is that it allows you to remain balanced, take in all that information for your best life. You know how to act on it. While it may appear to you as though you are standing alone and the only one holding this truth. As true. This means you have to be a bit stronger in your belief of yourself, having faith in yourself. And of course, give yourself a lot of grace and patience in dealing with all of those people that seek to disagree and control you by telling you what you and you aren't. In my view, soul tribe around you aren't ever gonna do that because they share the vibe that you do. It's nobody's business. When you're with your soul tribe, everybody accepts everyone else as equal to one another, and that whatever customizations you have in terms of your gifts, that's what makes you you. Confirmation with my watch. There's only one of you, so of course you're gonna be alone. Doesn't have to mean that you're lonely, because in the universe, your soul tribe exists. You might just not have found them yet. So be kind and patient to all of those who want to tell you who you are. And all I can say to you is I'm proud of you. Whether or not I am in your soul tribe, please know that you are seeing as someone who stood alone in my beliefs. It can be daunting until you understand how much faith you have in yourself, and that you never lie to yourself. Neither will you be skeptical. You just can have an open mind. Being kind and patient may seem impossible to stand alone in your truth. You're not alone. Thanks for listening.
