MANENO TU PART 2

Little foxes that destroy the bloom.

There are places that slowly but surely take down your pride and grace, it is not grand but it is incrementally degrading. Slowly. I have observed over the years that it is usually a mismatch of energy, you may not always know what someone's intention is, or what they do or say behind your back but you can always tell a person's energy is off, you can even feel it while away if you take time to listen to your psyche more. 

People who do not like you may not openly say something grande, but they may throw snide comments, show disdain covertly, avoid eye contact when they sneer or jest at you. The eyes are the gateway or windows to the soul, you stare at them and you might learn a thing or two.

Songs of Solomon says, catch us the little foxes because it is those that destroy the vineyard flowers before they even bloom. Some things and some people do not often affect the grand, they are masters at identifying signs of blooming, your little efforts at rebuilding yourself, some little signs of progress, they know you are on a path to better things, and they can tell, that is when they introduce viruses. I think we often underestimate the impact of energy in people we interact with, or even our own energies that we give off. Ofcourse, alot of woke folks think it is quasi spirituality at the mention of energy, in the age of atheism and self determinism but at the basic, you can feel when you off the tracks. 

We can as well be that agent of self sabotage. A little unadressed vanity here, an addiction there, a day that is unplanned, a lack of boundaries, a lack of vision or proper time management etc. It is always the little things... That you should be aware of.

It is the trims, the little foxes destroy the vineyard before it blooms. The most Important season of our lives- productively speaking, is the flower bloom, they are the most vulnerable, it is when we get opportunity for exponential growth, the chart curves go up, we get the right people, connections and mindsets for our great victory. But, there are things, places, behaviors and people especially who subtly, like the foxes, shake up the bloom, and the platforms for our progress fall off. Anger, resentment, a dry spiritual life, unconsciousness, a lack of reflection...

If you have ever had your car in a car yard in a garage for long or bought salvage cars, you would know what some thieves steal. They do not steal the car really, but they will strip it of the little trims, some small panels for the lights washers, the oil caps, the little panel windows on the rear window doors, the caps the hide the wheel screws... Nothing is hard to find as these, they cost a fortune as well.

Walk away from any subtle sign of disrespect, be more conscious of what you allow and what you are becoming, then create strong unapologetic boundaries to protect what you are becoming.
