It’s okay if you’re not everyone’s cup of teafeatured

Coming to peace with the idea that it’s okay not to be everyone’s cup of tea, has been a long and challenging lesson for me. Maybe you’ve already checked it off your list. Maybe it was never even in your bag, to begin with. And if so, well, I do admire you! Keep on Rockin’ and Rollin’! Keep on modeling to those of us who are still strengthening those muscles of knowing!

Cheers to freedom!!! To the untethered souls tapping into their infinite power and gifts of service! And to those dear beloveds, who, like myself, still discover toil and suffering in not being everyone’s cup of tea, hear this:

I have been a people pleaser for as long as I can recall. Maybe you have too. Maybe yours also has roots in childhood, domestication, challenging astrological aspects, and insecurities. Whatever the origin or why, there seems to be something that came before all of that.

Before, this planet was a place, a place I remember as being filled with light, where everyone existed in wise harmony with one another. This remembrance is what my soul knows as home-sweet-home. To be a human on this planet felt to me like a shattering reality. How could a world be both so rich in beauty and in cruelty? To be here is no easy calling. It can be arduous and painstaking. But the loving message that has been relived and respoken about over time is that it’s not about you. It is about being of joyful service. It is about not dulling your light as you deeply feel the world’s suffering. It is about being who you are here to be. How and what others perceive of you is none of your business, and it is not, I repeat, NOT personal.

One perfect analogy is tea, and another is desserts or essential oils!

A short story to highlight the point is this:

My acupuncturist uses essential oils on meridian doorways, depending on your needs. With eyes closed, the doctor holds up one oil at a time to your nose.

“The body gets to vote yes or no,” he says. “The nose knows.”

Whatever the body chooses, the oils do not take it personally. For the oils know that they are magic and medicine with a purpose, just as we are. They are teachers of living by just being precisely who they are.

If carrot seed essential oil, for example, is helpful to the body, then the nose enjoys the scent. If it’s not, the smell is subtly too strongly repulsive. What the body votes for in that moment, becomes information that guides the orchestration for harmony and balancing.

I have been living life from either the perspective of attraction or repulsion. Thinking that resonance meant harmony and aversion meant chaos. But it is neither. It is all part of a grander working of harmony.

So if you are someone’s magic and medicine in one moment and then not in another, there’s a purpose to it. Trust the unfolding. Continue radiating all that you are, and blissing and blessing all the harmony that resides within you.

Your j.o.b. (joy of being) is to keep your heart open. To keep yourself tuned to the delightful vibrations.

Let loose and live fearlessly! Know how seen, loved, and unconditionally supported you are. Ground and connect to nature. Remain in this world while not being of it, for the dimensions stretch far beyond— The essential thing in every moment is your relationship with your soul and pure Awareness itself, here and now. Have faith and let go because the rest of the world is held tenderly within that. All judgments and divisions are an illusion. The only thing that is – Is that we are one, and we are made of love. Everything else stems and blooms from that.
