Build Bridges

Dear Beautiful Being,

When you have a choice to build a wall OR a bridge…choose a bridge — EVERY TIME. You never know when YOU may need to cross it.

Walls keep you where you are — confined. Confined to just your view, your perspective, your knowledge and your truth.

Bridges allow for CONNECTION, to see a different perspective, access to a new territory, new people,and to hear other’s truths.

Bridges provide a VALUE ADD — a win win for either party to go across to the other side or to meet halfway.

Sometimes we seek out our tribes by finding the opinion that is common, the worldview that is common — and somehow when there is an opposing view, it can be viewed as that other Beautiful Being is a ‘non believer’ who we may steer away from. But who would the believer be without the non-believer and vice versa.

All beings need each other. It all helps in defining the tribes which we feel we belong to.

In essence, Beautiful Being, there is only ONE tribe and we ALL belong to it — the Human tribe.

So Beautiful Being, before you claim a stake in the ground to put up YOUR wall so at to keep others out, there is still a way to take distance without the wall…if you need to stay on your side to take distance- do it…just don’t burn the bridge.

How many walls have you put up for yourself Beautiful Being?

How many bridges have you built?

When given the choice of the wall or the bridge — which will you choose?

Thank you for being beautifully you

Much love and light

Dear Beautiful Being
