PATHWAY TO JOY AND HEALING

We all have free will to decide the course of our lives and path we choose.  The decisions made by our higher selves result in blessings and the choices of our ego result in life lessons.  So how do we know when the decisions are made by our higher self or ego?   It can get very confusion if we don’t have awareness when we are making these decisions.

The guideline I use is whether the decisions are for benefit or detriment.  If our decisions are for self gain that will hurt or take advantage of others, this is likely the choice of ego.  If our decisions are for self protections or service to others, this is likely the choice of the higher self.  There have been moments in my life where I wanted a particular outcome out of desire, dependency, greed, selfishness, or other negative basis then I know this is based in ego.  The higher self, on the other hand, will make decisions based on compassion, kindness, unconditional love, selflessness, or in the highest potential.

The ego’s drive is very strong and sometimes, the ego will deceive us by making us believe it is the choice of the higher self giving justifications, excuses, and defenses.   Be very weary of these deceptions by ego as you may hear a voice saying that you need this more than others, that you deserve this, that it really isn’t hurting anyone,that you are only trying to help others, or this is for love so it’s okay.  This is the illusion of ego so ask yourself, am I making this decision based on my highest potential and from a positive basis? We must seek the truth, and be truly honest with ourselves when making our decisions so we live at our highest potential for our lives.
