Dragons are sneaky. They seem to sneak into our lives - right when we thought we had everything figured out. Life is about discovering our dragons, admitting they are there and then figuring out what kind of dragon they are and what their purpose is. Dragons show up time and time again in our lives in various forms. They show up over and over again until we take notice and make a change in our lives. They will NEVER dissapear on their own without assistance.
A dragon is an annoying gift; a chance for us to look at our life and make a change. The trick is to pay attention. It is soooo easy to ignore a dragon and live around it - like an elephant in a room - trying ever so hard to make our life work around this annoying habit, addiction etc. We give so much power to the dragon that the dragon seems to be in charge of our life instead of us in charge of the dragon.
Now, for a moment -think of yourself owning a dog. Imagine yourself allowing your dog to destroy your home inside and out. You allow him to do this because it's just easier than training the dog. Training the dog would take time, patience and effort. You might even have to attend a class or two to obtain the skills to train your dog. Sounds crazy doesn't it?
So why do we allow dragons to destroy our homes (ourselves)? Usually a dragon has been around for so long that it is comfortable. It doesn't necessarily matter that the behavior or addiction is affecting our life negatively - because this is the only life we know. We simply think that this is what life is about. We don't realize that taming or destroying the dragon will create immense peace. Life without the dragon will be so much better. After all, the dragon really isn't a welcome pet like a puppy. We've just been treating it as one.
Taming and destroying dragons is a life time adventure. They don't go away. We just get better at spotting them and eliminating them. As we get healthier we give them less and less power and take the necessary steps to slay our dragons as they appear. The trick is recognizing them because they are sneaky.
A dragon doesn't show up in our lives with an announcement of "I am here!" "Notice me!" I am here to make your life miserable!" Instead it simply feels like a way of life. It sneaks in unexpectedly. Generally something will trigger it's appearance. Something will remind us of a trauma in the past and once again that dragon that we thought we had destroyed is back! It's so irritating but it's a fact of life. Triggers will always happen and we will always be taming dragons as they appear. We are always striving to improve ourselves. Growth is a constant part of life.
The good news is - that we can improve. We can recognize the dragons as they appear - instead of allowing them to reside with us and become a part of our lives. We can learn to take daily measures to be the master of the dragon instead of the dragon being master over us.
My dragon that seems to cause me the most grief is the need for approval and acceptance from others. Many people have this need. This isn't a bad thing. It's good for us to feel love from others. But it can be debilitating if we are more concerned about seeking the acceptance from others than from God. This dragon sneaks in my life from time to time - just when I'm feeling confident. Once again - it is an annoying gift. A chance to be humble and recognize that God is the source of all love.
The good news is that I have identified that I have this sneaky dragon - and so I work on eliminating it. Prayer, faith and emotional clearing with energy work help to release these dragons.
I can help you release your dragons through emotional clearing.
