The Warrior

Being psychic is a blessing and a curse.  I can't always control the energies tossed in my direction so I end up in self-preservation mode pretty often.  Most of the time I'm battling negative vibes, especially the copy-cat types.  This is one of my greatest pet peeves.  It drives me crazy to see so many people inherently selfish, insecure and angry.  So much, that they live their lives vicariously through others then try to sabotage their efforts to live a mentally, emotionally and spiritually healthy life by being vindictive.

Those qualities are commonly found in psychic vampires.  These people suck the life out of others' energy to fill their own tanks due to lack of conviction and laziness.  It takes next to nothing to be like this whereas being a good person is a constant, uphill battle.  Generally these brave warriors experience a lot of emotional pain and depletion of their gifts while associating with a psychic vampire.  Sometimes they suffer for years before their tanks can be replenished and have an inner circle filled with other good, hard working individuals. 

Yes.  Hard work.  A concept most Americans have abandoned for the instant gratification lifestyle.  It's not about what you can do, but what the truly talented people you know can do for you. It's disgusting how we're passing these unethical attributes on to our children as well.  If I had $1 every time I heard a contestant on American Idol say, "I've been watching this show my entire life and always wanted to be on it," throughout the years, I'd be so filthy rich that I'd give free readings for the rest of my days.  Actually, that's a great idea!  Too bad I can't afford to yet.  Someday I will... Anyway, this is what parenting has come to these days.  Train your child to reach for the reality show stars so they can steal their childhood and cash in.  ICK.

Laziness isn't a new thing, but it's seriously out of control.  I spend most of my life dealing with these psychic vampires.  It's refreshing to meet another person who is willing to bust their ass to not only be happy, but spread joy to everyone around them.  Sadly, this is a rare occurrence and when it happens I'm truly shocked.  This is why most kindhearted people feel lonely.  There is so much negativity out there that we're forced to keep a very small group of friends in our circles.  The average person cannot emotionally afford a super sized entourage because they'll become ineffectual to those who really matter once their tanks are emptied by the vampires.  Their social lives generally become extinct once they embrace only like-minded individuals because they are so few out there.  My mother always said, "If you have one true friend in this world, you're lucky."  Boy was she ever right. 

Consistently taking responsibility for your actions is the easiest way to become a warrior instead of a psychic vampire.  We are not expected to be perfect, but if we want to be truly successful, we must be honest with ourselves first and foremost.  Then we need to operate in an ethical manner and work hard in order to rise to the top on whichever path we choose.  Finding healthy ways to stay grounded and connect with yourself spiritually also keeps your emotions in check so you won't feel the need to suck the life out of anyone else.

The world is run by people.  That's it.  People just like you and I.  So why do we give so much of our attention, admiration and power away to those we don't even know?  We should be directing that energy inward to build our SELF esteem.  That's right.  It's called SELF esteem for a reason.  You are in control of how you feel about yourself.  Just because someone else may not choose you for a job or their romantic mate doesn't mean you're not worthy of success and happiness.  You were just barking up a tree that won't thrive in your yard naturally.

The Warrior knows he cannot sit on his ass to conquer the world.  He must fight and he never quits.  The vampire preys on weak, innocent people who consistently give their power away.  Don't let that be you.  Arm yourself with knowledge, inner strength and other people who share your vision in life.  Don't allow rejection (from one or more people) to dictate your worth.  In the end, our graves (or urns) are all the same size.  The only thing that truly matters is NOW.

Live your life with purpose.  Focus on what makes you happy and don't waste any more time on people who have hurt you or situations that just didn't work out.  If they were meant to be, they would be.  Be accountable for the choices you have made that has created the life you have now.  IF you don't like it, change it.  Don't blame anyone else for your unhappiness or misfortune.  When you stop making yourself the victim, you will attract loyal soldiers who will do just about anything to protect your bliss.
