Validation – Page 7

Who are you? Have you ever been asked that question or asked it of yourself? A few months back as a guest on Allie Cheslick’s Wings of Love radio show I was asked that very question and I gave the answer that I was prepared to give.

It was answer that I had rehearsed knowing Allie would ask me. My answer was “I am a spiritual being having a human experience.” There I said it! That is who I am!

I remember clearly as Allie said something to the effect of ‘OK that’s good but WHO ARE YOU..WHO IS DEBRA TAITEL AND WHERE DO YOU COME FROM ….REALLY?’ Honestly for a moment I felt like a deer in the headlights! How do I answer that?

I took a deep breath and immediately realized that I had never really talked about who I am and what it was like growing up being sensitive to energy with an awareness that was very different from those around me. I took my abilities for granted. Now I consider them a gift.

In my head childhood scenes started playing out. How many times had I rehearsed the answer I thought someone wanted to hear? How many times did I try to be like someone else or fit into a group because at some level I felt that “who I was” wasn’t good enough?

That radio show was pivotal in my growth and has allowed me to examine all those places and pictures that I was not only living from, but showing to other people. If you’ve ever asked why someone can’t see you for who you are, you may want to ask yourself if you are BEING who you really are.

Many people are awakening to who they are as spirit. You’ve heard the saying there is so much more to you than meets the eye. Well, I see a lot of people beginning to open their eyes to the “more”and in many ways it’s like awakening from a deep slumber.

Sometimes you need to yawn, stretch and contemplate if what you experienced in your “dream” was really true. If you get up too quickly, you can feel a bit dizzy but if you open your eyes and allow them to focus, then plant your feet firmly on the ground your awakening can be a beautiful epiphany with many more to come!

So WHO ARE YOU? Are you living life from your heart? Do you have a passion or gift that you’d like to share with the world but someone once told you that you weren’t good enough, you shouldn’t or couldn’t? Have you ever considered that who you’ve “tried” to be wasn’t really you?

Take a journey within and find YOU! Let go of the rest. When you live from the truth of who you are, you don’t need rehearsal…it’s just YOU BEING YOU and who you are becoming! 🙂

I AM Debra Taitel a spiritual being having a human experience and yes, there is much more to me than meets the eye! How about you? WHO ARE YOU?~ Shine your light Debbie

Are you seeking permission to heal yourself? Interesting question isn’t it?! 🙂 I ask because it really IS worth taking a look at if you are taking steps to clear out old energies and programming that have defined your life to this point.

Much of how we have shaped our lives was ‘programmed’ in from a very young age. Remember the game “Mother may I….”? How validating when “mother” said you could take 2 steps forward!

Asking ‘permission’ was literally programmed into our reality! You had to get permission from your teachers to speak by raising your hand and if you were going on a field trip (ie something different from the normal) you needed a permission slip from your parents! You asked permission to go out and play or get up from the dinner table. In your adult life, you need to get permission from your boss to merely take a day off.

I’m sure at some point in your life you’ve heard; “We love you just the way you are…” or “I love you, don’t ever change…” or how about this little ditty=>”You’re doing a great job! Keep doing what you’re doing…”

Now it’s great to hear those things BUT those statements can actually get in the way of your growth if YOU want to create something different or expand your life experience. You may find yourself in fear of letting go or creating something new unless you get permission to do so.

Seeking permission is really looking outside yourself to validate that you are taking the right step. You are asking for someone else’s permission to validate that what YOU want to heal or create is the right choice.

Well here’s the deal. NO ONE KNOWS BETTER THAN YOU WHAT THE RIGHT CHOICE IS FOR YOU! Yes, I put that in caps to make the point:-) When you take the time to look within to find what you really want, it is your truth and you don’t need anyone else’s permission to grow, change and create! SOOO write yourself a permission slip! Trust in YOU and your choices! Give YOURSELF permission to heal and transform!

Now… in the grand scheme of things if you are STILL looking for permission to heal, grow, create change and live from your true authentic self==>>PERMISSION GRANTED! Shine your Light~Debbie
