Life is a ladder

With each experience, we climb higher to our true purpose.

Love, too, is a ladder.

With each new relationship we enter, we learn something about what we like and dislike in love; the habits we can live with in another, and the habits that make us want to pull out our hair and scream in frustration!
 We can refine our likes and dislikes as we meet, date, and commit to different partners until, with time and understanding, we choose the partner whose goals and aims match our own.

With more life experience comes wisdom and the ability to choose our next best action based on previous experience.

Sometimes we make the same mistakes, but, more often than not, we climb steadily upward towards our greatest good.

But there are times; times when another will step on our fingers and cause us pain. There are times we will step on others.

 The pain we experience, both in being stepped on, and inadvertently (and sometimes purposely) stepping on someone else, is priceless, because pain teaches best.

Psychics hate that.

I know we aren’t supposed to hate. I know we are rumoured to be incense burning, meditative om chanting creatures who only see the best in everything, but that is far, far from the truth.

First, we are human.

As humans, we often forget the ladder in the moment. We react the same as other people to the many and numerous disasters taking place in our world: with horror, anger, sadness, and sorrow.

Then the psychic part kicks in.

Purpose is present in everything. After disaster, we see the ladders our clients must climb. We see the wonderful heights that can be attained. We see the rain, snow, and sleet falling time and again on those ladders, and the slips and falls that come with such nasty weather.

We watch in awe as time after time, our clients rise.

Even in love, where quite often there are two people climbing the same ladder, and so the potential for disaster is doubled.

When together firmly, two people in a relationship are on the same rung. Even when problems arise, it’s common to see one partner carefully reaching down to help their other half up. These are the relationships which fill us with joy, when one partner takes turns helping the other up the ladder so that both might climb on to achieve their greatest dreams together.

But there are times when one partner expects to be lifted up the ladder. Where one person in the relationship is expected to lift both their weight and their partner’s up the long, long ladder with nothing to count on but their own strength and forbearance.

It is rarely possible for one partner to carry both up the ladder.

I’ve never known a psychic to recommend it. We don’t want you carrying all that weight by yourself. Most of the clients we love have spent their whole lives helping others up different ladders, traveling up, down, and up and down again to help those they love most accomplish what they most want to in this life.

Helping someone up is very different from carrying dead weight.

So in the interest of climbing as far and fast up your own personal ladder as possible, look around you. Are the people sharing your ladder - your loved ones, friends, family, and acquaintances - helping lift you up, or are they dragging you down to deal with their drama and expectations?

 Once you identify any culprits or situations that don’t contribute to your greater good, remove anyone or any situation that hinders you from ascending to fulfill your greatest dreams and goals.

You can only climb as high as the burdens you carry allow you to.
