yes, this is how we lose it. We're told that We need help to lose the ability, the gift, the curse. We get alot of help. What is not understood is feared. What is feared is attacked or pursuaded to go away. Blink your eyes real fast, and they'll go away.

 

no one likes to be ignored, especially if it's hard to be heard in the first place. Sometimes what we have to say is not nice, and sometimes we want to say it to anyone, even if she is only 10. But we'll keep trying until someone else more shimmering than we are points out that we might not be doing more good than harm by rapping on a 10-yr old's head to get her attention.

 

The name demon sometimes gets a bad rap nowadays, and usually it refers to someone/thing that is outside the Light of the Creator. But that's a simple explanation fitting only some frequencies, and its like describing Ty Cobb or Willie Mays in the same breath as describing a 10 yr-old Little league player during baseball season. If what we wish to communicate to the listener is worth the price of attention,  we'd do better to hand out the program agenda listing the players before we start broadcasting the play-action of the game.

 

She has a gift, not given by the norms in us. It's rude and pretentious to remove a gift we didn't bestow, thinking we understand all the rules of the game we barely play at a Little league level. Don't get me wrong now, protecting the children is what I AM ALL ABOUT (if you've done any attention-paying on my monologues). A hand reaching to you from the darkness can be a claw of horror, or it can be a hand from a dark room, looking darkly only because your eyes are closed to a different kind of light.

 

We all want to do the right thing by our children. That's why we're called parent. We need to learn how to excel in the game, and be accountable for both our limitations and our mandate to grow spiritually. That's why we're called adult.

 

Learning can hurt. Hurting can cause change. Change can be the catalyst for new beginnings in spirit, or the wall of terror that limits your growth. There is no pain pill that you'd otherwise want to keep your spirit from embracing, accepting and releasing the Light.

 

Step up.
