Hi there Spirit Friends. I hope all is well with you in your corner of the world today but if not, let’s move thru all this stuff together. We need uplifting posts to inspire us so I hope to bring that to you today. This topic I discussed a while back on my other blog but kinda in a different way. First off, happy 2-1-21! Wow. Look at that number. The *** ANGEL*** meaning is love, harmony, and prosperity so that is my wish for all of you today, this new month, and beyond.

So, let’s get into removing labels. I’m talking about with people here but we still need to check those nutritional labels as well! I also have mentioned Doreen Virtue some time ago with a book she wrote and many types of personalities were discussed. We have “The Peacemaker,” The Narcissist,” The Psychic Vampire,” “The Victim,” “The Martyr,” and so many others. Do these sound familiar? Maybe you have been one of those or know someone who is? You may not even realize it as some things can be very subtle. I believe being extrovert and introvert falls into these categories as well but perhaps not as extreme as some listed. I also know how we incarnate into certain roles so we can learn lessons in this life which will help us in others. We may never completely abandon a certain role with a specific label attached but we can always strive to be better.

People are just people after all and if they truly wanted to change, they would. Why are we this way? Well, like I said— we incarnated and signed up to play that role for some many reasons. Maybe we didn’t learn a lesson the last time around or maybe it’s role reversal with another. There are many possibilities and it will be different for all. Categorizing is so easy to do and we judge way too often. Once we accept and try to understand their viewpoint, those labels perhaps peel off and we see the person for who they truly are. They may still always let that label creep back in but if we see beyond it, our frustrations can cease and the bad opinions go away. We need to see the good beyond all the labels society puts on all of us. I bet each of you can think of ONE person who falls into any of those categories or labels above. I won’t get into any of the details today but some are quite obvious. Peacemaker always wants to keep the peace but fails to speak up with their own opinion. The Narcissist constantly brags or talks only of themselves while ignoring others. The Psychic Vampire just drones on about their situations and becomes a leech knowing you will take on all their drama. The Victim always plays the woe is me pity party game and complains how nothing good ever happens to them. The Martyr is always trying to fix everyone or do so much for others, they neglect themselves. They must tell everyone of all the good they do like it’s a chore. Many of us have become some of these at differing times in our lives.

Just try not to take on more than you can handle or judge others for how they are living their life. They may think negatively about you but you don’t need to return that at all. It will be hard. I never said it would be easy ever. Once you find yourself caught in a repetitive behavior, look to it for guidance as to what your next step should be. We can always course correct anytime we want. Any thought you have is either good or bad. Labels again but we need to define those to choose the best over and over. Journal or write down ideas to help yourself with that especially difficult person and even just send them love. Rise above the bad because we can and need to. Others may have the perfect label for you too so make them have a positive one that will resonate better. Let’s all work on this as I need to all the time. Try not to start a thought about someone like:” He always drives me crazy when he…” We do that kind of talk all the time so if finding yourself there, try this instead:  “I know he always does this but that’s just who he is and I need to accept that.” Yep, that’s better, isn’t it? We may never agree and want them to change to please us but the truth is in more cases than not, it won’t happen. You are who you are also for a reason and we all have qualities that make us positive or negative.

We shouldn’t have those labels but unfortunately, we do so let’s make the best of them. Our lives are all very different and our choices will also be. Forgiveness and acceptance need to happen as I’ve said so many times before. It takes sooo much work and might just be our entire lifetime here before we improve. TRY because it’s so very important to remove those labels and get to the whole of another. Those roles don’t need to define us although we think they do. They will always be there but let’s rise above them and be true. If another won’t make the effort, at least you are and that’s a great first step. I sure hope this post has served you and try some techniques of your own to remove labels placed on all of us. Let me know what works for you on this journey we all take….
