SIBLINGS
April 10, 2022 is siblings’ day. Some siblings aspire to assist in your ascension while others can become your hindrance.
Siblings
We all start out equal in terms of civilization and academics. Identical educational opportunities are available to all, and some choose not to take advantage of the opportunity. Unfortunately, others are not shown the path to ascend, but over time if you seek, you shall find your way. Readers, have you wondered why you differ from your siblings? The choices we make along our way to personal goals will vary amongst individuals.
Early stages of life, with siblings, should be one of positivity that promotes ascension in your adult years. I understand that there are areas of turbulence during growth, between all kin. A positive bond in the beginning can surely override the negative tugs that are experienced in our lifetime. If you remember that only you can walk your true path and only you can stand when you fall, you can be there for a weaker sibling as a guide if they fall. A guide not a permanent path finder. Am I my brother’s keeper? We all have heard this statement sometime throughout our growing years. What does it mean? Again, only you can walk your path to ascension.
Crisis
Relatives, loving as they are, can harm sibling relations by misinterpreting assumed responsibilities based on the phrase “Am I my brother’s keeper”. Looking in, from the outside of a situation, relatives only see a family bond, and expect that we assist our siblings no matter the cost to our wellbeing.
Interpretations must meet our expectations and sometimes these expectations stray from an actual meaning. For reference, “for you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers, and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love. – Galatians 5:13. There are many interpretations in the Bible for this subject, I chose this one as it relates better to my point.
Are we to slow our path of ascension because a sibling is unable to ascend at our pace? How many teachings are we to provide which could enable them to ascend? Are we to jeopardize the freedoms that we were given , because they may choose to use their freedom for sinful ways?
Pathways
There are plenty of questions in life that are brought before us. Indeed, there are questions that relate to siblings that we drive ourselves to find the answer. Sometimes in finding the answer to assist a sibling’s ascension, we lose sight of our own path. If you find yourself in an endless loop of actions helping with financial obligations or ascending recommendations, that if were followed, the struggle would surely be dissolved. If so, it may be time for the sibling and yourself to take a personal look in the mirror. Again, only the single person can walk their path to ascension.
If we allow the distraction, a sibling can be a factor that determines if we achieve what we’ve set out for ourselves. To understand a sibling is to understand life as we know it. There is no guarantee that a sibling will accept your attempts at ascension recovery nor is it guaranteed that you will receive positive efforts in return. Learn to recognize the repetitiveness of assistance that we provide to siblings, and you will see that by helping in this manner you will negatively affect your path of ascension.
Are we our brother’s keeper?
