Hello my lovely WordPress family, I only intended to be away from my blog for the weekend, as it turned out it has been over one week! It seemed the more I embraced those silent pursuits away from technology, the more reluctant I was in switching the modem back on.
Often when we go within those silent moments of deep thought, they take us to the realms of realisation of how far we have come. But they also bring to the fore just how much further we still have to travel.
We all of us look after our physical health.. Well I guess you could say I have been looking after my mental health. While I am always trying to be optimistic and work with positivity, sometimes our energy wanes, and I had to sit back and ask myself why I was beginning to feel so drained and emotionally wrung out.
I have long come to recognise ‘the Signs’ of how those emotional feelings creep up on one, and how we get embroiled within the emotional circuits of other peoples energies.. Having come through my own uphill journey, overcoming my own nervous breakdown many years ago, the signs of tearfulness over the least little thing sent the alarm bells ringing. Disengaging from the Media is one thing, but how do you disengage from your friends whom you love whose emotional journeys are pulling you this way and that.
When you are empathic by nature, sometimes the only way of protecting yourself is to withdraw for a time. And get back to basics. I have to accept the world keeps on turning and there is nothing I can do about all the negativity that happen within it. For such is the Yin and Yang of our collective progression. And without the Negative how would we experience the Positive! All is part of the cycle. And getting all emotional about the many tragedies around our globe is not going to help heal the world if I end up contributing more negative emotions to the matrix which is already circulating in abundance.
So I needed to take myself out of those vibrations and create New Energy. So what have been up? I have been embracing several new projects and sitting within the silence and just listening to what answers have been coming back from the void of space I have surrounded my mind in.
So over the next couple of post I will be sharing with you those projects, along with some of my thoughts and Inner guidance’s which have helped realign myself back ‘in tune’ so to speak with my ‘True Self’ something I shall be discussing in my next post.
I thank you all for your patience and will be visiting all who have left me wonderful comments and well wishes..
Love and Blessings

Seems you time away from here was spent well, Sue – look forward to reading about the projects and I so agree we all should pull away into our private space from time to time and just float with life that awaits us, helping it along with ideas and directions that make us who we are. Giant hugs XXXX

Love that Ina.. ” Float with Life that awaits us”.. all too often we try to force life and mould it often resisting our inner guidance and intuition that tells us differently.. Over the years I have learnt that to resist such energies often means they persist even longer.. So now have learnt to go within the flow of my thoughts.. Thank you for your wise words dear Ina, and for the Giant hugs, warm ones sent right on back to you my friend ❤ xxx

Looking forward to your projects my friend. Done with your love they can only be created with an unconditional grace and a beauty all their own.

Sue, what a touching and intimate sharing of your deepest feelings. We all get caught up in the collective mindset from time to time, no matter where it seems to be headed. It’s why I’ve chosen living in virtual isolation most of my life. Like you, I’m empathic and open and generally positive, but it takes vigilance to remain that way in the face of these kinds of sea changes. And we simply must take care our ourselves, for there are few who truly understand this level of sensitivity. I love Elaine Aron’s book The Highly Sensitive Person – lots of great wisdom in there for those who desire it. An oldie but a goodie. Blessings to you for taking time to take care. Love, Bela

I should have come earlier,your thoughts exude the well-known “Sue tranquility” no matter what happens around us.We experience numerous feelings everyday,they are clear,we can easily define and handle with them.The real problem is with the strong emotional feelings which are badly neglected and usually remain unconscious within us because we don’t know how to discuss with ourselves.We usually live in deception and in complete unawareness which is against our eudaimonia.Do we do it consciously or unconsciously?Your beautiful thoughts and your symbolic,reflective photos with the happy swan family are so much help for your readers,dear friend!The journey is long and the negativity that prevails in the world right now,as you mentioned,makes it rough as well.You are a restless mind seeking the big truths that bring peace of mind and self-assurance.Of course the needs and desires are different for each one of us,but the way we approach such issues doesn’t differ,I suppose.Most stimulating post, influential and spiritual deep thoughts!Sending you so much love and kind thoughts,Sue dear 🙂 ❤ xxx

Dear Sue, first of all, the swan pictures are lovely. The signets are surely a sign that you are on the right track with your new projects.
I used to live by a small river in Surrey and amongst many other wonderful things of nature, there were always swans, stopping me in my tracks to simply gaze upon their elegance, grace and beauty, They seemed so perfect and at ease in their own skin (feathers).
You have been urged to take time away from your empathic responses, to rest and allow your own self to renew and re-energise. It is well that you know how to listen to your inner promptings.
God Bless xx

A touching post Sue and ‘touching’ is what is missing in our modern world.
Many people will empathise with this emotional feeling as it is so prevalent today.
Of mobile phones, TV, PC and all the abstract diversions from reality.
The world of technology is advancing faster than we can adjust.
The machine evolution is evolving faster than man, it is taking control of our lives.
To step back as you are doing is a move in the right direction.
I look forward to your future posts I am sure they will show a way to cope with the ‘race of the humans’ to become winners over machines.
It will take all our intelligence to win over ‘IT’
My blogging friends Sue are like paintings some like Leonardo others Picasso.
As admirable as they are they cannot compare with Mother Natures serenity and beauty.
Real flesh and blood friends with a friendly smile the touch of a hand and the warm look. We must not neglect the ones close within easy reach. In our cities many people do not know their neighbours. Building walls of distrust. Pauline’s garden has no walls https://pommepal.wordpress.com/2014/11/05/come-walk-with-me-in-the-garden/ The balance of yin and yang as you say are necessary needed.

Mark, I took a glance at your latest post and I only had time to glance through it, yet this I do know, you know what you are talking about. This process I find myself in with my Mom has gotten lighter, and easier due to the decisions she is making. I’m letting go. This is a LONG complex story about dysfunctional families. She is closing the door on our openness that I only had for 2 short months. How I would Love to tell her that where she is headed she won’t even want to come on back. I was also shown how Lessons are now in action for some in this family and I am not involved. I feel a Peace today after days of torture. Sign after sign was given and sure enough those who are deemed “family” by my mother are once again priority. I cannot explain it but I just feel disconnected right now, calm, where for days I was a basket case. I will have to come back to your blog to read in depth your post. I thank you for taking the time to comment to me. I am truly touched you did. Bless you.

Thank you for the reply Amy. They are hard journeys, but as you said, I think you have seen all that you need from those interactions with your mom, because you did come closer to her to touch and feel what you both needed to see in that love that was shared in that short time.
You have stepped through that pain and understood what is in your heart. And because of that it is bringing that healing and peace within. In that I am happy for you, as it will bring a conclusion to so much hurt and pain that you have experienced.
I have to admit the timing of my post has been quite ‘unusual’ (says I about spirits timing 🙂 ), as it has helped others as spirit said it would.
And thank you for your confirmation of my journey, it is good to hear of others and their experiences as well. I would love to hear of your NDE, when and if time permits, if you felt up to even expressing it, as they are a very personal experience.
Sending much love and light Amy, may that connection with your mom bring you a peace and a love that you both deserve. Mark xo

Gosh,Sue, I do understand. As a sensitive, we are more impacted by the vibration of our world and must therefore spend more time in quiet reflection. I had my first “nervous breakdown” just before I turned 14. Had to move away from home for a year. There were several that followed until I finally realized I must remain true to my nature and withdraw a lot more than most. Good things can come from this and I’m glad you are feeling that it did. I will check back in with you when I return home but in the meantime, I will carry you in my heart and wish you peace. Giant hugs.M

Sue, I look forward to your sharing your methods of finding inner peace. I know well what it’s like to absorb too much energy from our surroundings. I too like to climb into a hole at such times to regroup and rebalance, so I hear you, and hope you’re feeling better. I suppose being an empath is both a blessing and a curse. ❤

Ah, can relate Sue…again 🙂 I think it’s important to acknowledge these times and honour them, take the time to process what we are feeling and what is trying to make itself known. What a long journey! I often wish I could just be “normal” and “do’ what everyone else seems to do, just get on! But, I am me, you are you…all of us different 🙂 And that’s ok. I was reading about something yesterday that had me just sitting on the couch staring out the window all day, a whole day wasted from what I intended, a whole day I am still not quite sure what was about but that’s my life right now…I will find my answers one day, you will too. xx

Totally understand. Somehow disconnecting really does make us more connected. It’s an oxymoron. I figured out not too long ago that I’m an empath. It’s one of the reasons I had to leave my teaching job in 2012. The climate was so negative and the morale so low that I absorbed all that energy from those teachers. Oh how they wanted to do good and be good and make a difference in the lives of their students! But they suffered for in the US it is a climate that is rather hostile toward teachers. I went home upset every day and knew that I had to find something that would make me sing once again. Knowing that now, I am MUCH more careful in the types of jobs I’ll accept and now, being the director, I get to create the environment I want for the kids who come to my program: it’s a program of love and acceptance, of positive discipline and natural consequences. Love this and sending hugs to you! xoxo

Oh How I would love to be one of your students Lol 🙂 Yes even in primary schools the pressures now placed upon teachers here in the UK is so great.. It is no longer just about good teaching practices, its about budgets and reaching figures of performance.. My Son told me that the Acting head teacher had also resigned last week she had been standing in the for Head who is off on sick leave with a nervous breakdown.. So I so understand the climate of who the teaching world can be so so stressful..
And yes stepping back for me has reconnected Me to Myself 🙂 .. Lots of Love xxx
