Chapter Three
I am still randomly bumping into people who have bought my book; thank you all once again for your fabulous feedback.
It is interesting to note what part of the book sticks in people’s mind. I recently met one reader who liked the resourcefulness of Melee as a child in this chapter (three); she adapted well in her environment; growing up with a single parent who was not always there.
This part of the book is deliberately focused on the resilience of the young characters; Melee and her cousins and to show how energies connect and are attracted to each other. We never randomly meet who we are meant to meet. There is always something there that binds us; a kindred invisible cord.
In this case, Melee and her male cousins share many commonalities; growing up with single parents who were unable to see to their emotional needs and welfare.
Another trait they all share is their resourcefulness and resilience. They never complained and Melee at least did not show signs of stress; they accepted their lot and got on with life as they knew it.
Melee learnt to keep quite when her father was not around. The cousins never questioned their mother when she left them for long periods at a time and they never begged her to stay home, not even for one night.
Some readers think their personalities unusual, whilst others like their strong characters. I have often written in my Life Coaching Newsletter how although we complain about our lot as adults, in fact, we do have the power to change our lives. All we have to do is to remember when we were young; a thing happened to us and we dealt with it; we were resourceful, resilient and bounced back. Now as adults we convince ourselves we need therapy, counselling or a psychiatrist. Be honest with yourself, you know that is what you do. I know I did.
Now, I stick pictures of myself as a young person all around my room to remind me that I am powerful. I can deal with any situation. I can adapt. I don’t do ‘poor me’ anymore. And whenever I feel myself backsliding, I simply look at myself in the pictures and I think ‘wow, your awesome Dora, I aspire to be like you.’
Going back to the cousins, their unattended emotional needs draws them to each other. Melee enters a home whereby three people will love, care and watch over her and she returned the favour by healing their souls with her unconditional love.
By mutually connecting the needs and strengths of each other, the energy of the home changed and the cousins all thrived.
Along with the resourcefulness of the characters in this chapter; intuition was another trait added. Melee and Jed are very intuitive; no wonder they bonded together very well.
Melee dreamt she saw a woman who was her mother and told her that she will soon a have baby brother to look after. When she woke up, she believed it in her heart and shared it with her family. It is normal for her family members to laughter at her; what does she know. But her aunt knew all too well. I can imagine the aunt thinking; how could she possibly know.
I believe that children are always very intuitive to begin with, and then as we grow into adults, we lose it. Our inner self becomes encrusted with emotional ‘stuff.’
I remember one day when my daughter was around 7 years old; we were playing in her bedroom and without warning she looked up at me and said. “Mummy, someone’s knocking at the door.” I said “No, darling, there’s no one knocking.” It was quiet in our apartment and I did not hear anything. Still, I got up and when to the door to have a look. I opened the front door and looked around; there was no one in sight. I returned to play with her and sure enough within a minute or so, there was a knock at the door; we had a visitor. It did throw me a little, but I accepted it.
Try to imagine what was going through Jed’s head when indeed he did notice his mother’s belly getting bigger. How he must have been wondering; how did Melee know, how could she have dreamt this; she’s only a child.
The energy in that household surely did change as everyone except Melee, was now under stress as her dream came into fruition with the birth of Malachi.
Everyone felt powerless and Melee was in her element.
Very often now, when I am under pressure, I have to think back in time; that time when bad or unwanted things happened but I still mastered the situation.
The power is always within us, it was there from the very beginning of our lives.
I hope you enjoyed these comments and insights of this review. Feel free to add your own views.
And if you haven’t a clue what I am talking about, well, now is the time to get your copy of Broken Oath, read it and keep up with the discussion.
By the way, if you have purchased the book but haven’t read it yet; you have no idea what wisdom you are missing out on.
