Happiness and joy are the guiding principles of our emotional lives… if there is any discomfort via the so called "negative" emotions; it is there to show us that something is missing. This is the void of the shadow that tells us that it needs to be filled, and we’d better do something quick to change the focus of our attention if we are to return to the emotional energy we were created to enjoy.
The void of the shadow is a place within us where nothing lives… no energy, no power and no life. It is the emptiness that tells us something is wrong… it is a signal to for us to make a change.
Some people use their unhappiness as their whole ground of being… it is the basis of their entire life. This is a gross miscalculation on their behalf and leads to many problems, as the shadow of the void is not meant to be a permanent situation… it is meant as a temporary siren to alert us to problems that need our attention in order to put them right.
These allegedly "negative" emotions play the part of a light house that warns us of the impending rocks, allowing us to steer our emotions away from the problem and right our course through life!
They play an important part in our lives, and we scorn them, rue them and complain about them! This is because we don’t understand them. If we take the time to realise that they are there to tell us something, then we can find out what the problem is, correct it and get on with enjoying our emotional lives.
The sailors never complain about the lighthouses, they applaud them for keeping the ship off the rocks… yet here we are emotionally in the same position as the ship approaching the rocks, and we wish we didn’t have to deal with the lighthouse!
How crazy is that. The key is to realise that we should not wallow in these emotions, we should learn the lesson and move on… find out where the problem lies and avoid the rocks.
The problem usually lies in the focus of our attention… we look towards the fear instead of the excitement… and this produces the fear. But remember that the fear is not an energy force in itself, it is the shadow of the void shouting to you, getting your attention so that you can avoid the rocks and correct yourself before you do any damage!
Emotional shadows give us a kick to let us know we are focussing in the wrong area. Instead of falling into the trap of "ever decreasing circles", what we need to do is to look away from the fear, and start to entertain the possibility of success, happiness and joy.
This will kick start our emotional focus back on track and allow us to be comfortable again with our direction.
