Dependency or Dead-Weight?

We all have sources to whom we turn for support - our websites are super
support sources. Most of us are lucky enough to have special people in our lives
- family members, friends, partners.
You can also gain energy and support from
the sun, moon, stars, the sea, from nature, pets, trees, etc.
Sometimes people come into our lives for a short while, to help us through
particular times or to teach us a particular lesson. Other people are longer-lasting
influences in our lives. For many of us, it isn't easy to trust, so once we open our hearts to someone and let them in to our deepest secret, it's hard not to be terrified of losing them.
Sometimes we love someone so much and are so deeply
committed to them that they will be ongoing energy sources for us, and we for
them, for life. That's good, that's what's meant to be.
But while it's good to have people who are special sources of support for us,
allowing one person to be our sole support can be unhealthy, both for us and
the other person. We may become overly dependent. The other person may feel
drained and may even leave us. Perhaps more likely, we'll become angry at the
person we're totally dependent on. For many reasons we can conflict with that
one person … we've based our life around one person and have nothing else,
so who else do we have to express our anger at? What if something happens so
that person is either no longer available, or needs to be dependent themselves
for a while, through exhaustion or ill-health. It's important to be aware of
our needs and to ensure they are met, but it is also important to be the person
meeting our own needs.
Open to a larger, more abundant source : The Universe. When we look to the
Universe for energy, we open to a wider, eternal and infinite source of all
we could ever need. Love, energy, support, information, guidance and nurturing.
Certain people may help us, but the Universe, the infinite energy source is
the only source of energy.
Share your space and heart with others, but respect that looking after themselves
takes enough of their energy, and they don't need another weight to carry.
Meditate and ask for what you need … then ask how to get it for yourself.
Finally, take action and meet your own needs.
