It’s all fun and games…

til' somebody gets hurt!

We have people, projects, places & things in our life that are dangerous for us to be playing around with. They're toxic, they're not healthy, they can harm us. In the moment, we think they're fun, cool shiny objects and we want so desparately to play with them. Sound familiar?

Oftentimes what shouldn't be done is a whole ton of fun, but eventually we pay the price if we keep rolling that dice.

Are you fighting the Universe or a higher power in it's efforts to remove these harmful situations or people from your life?

Love life,

Sean

P.S. Keep playing with fire and you're bound to get burned. Keep that in mind ;)

    I totally I agree with you. I am religious and I believe that when God takes something from you it is for the better and you will get better than that either in this world or tomorrow in heaven.

    sean hi,
    I watch reguarly all your post, thank you for all of them. about this one, it is so true. the message comes through sharp as a knife (using the metafor in a positive way). it is good to show kindness to everyone but we also have to wach are selves from people who are asking too much from us till we have no energy to give anymore. some people you can gently walk away from and to others you can put borders ,so you can live peacefully with them. In a case you are involved with a violent person, it is better to leave quickly
    and quitely without him knowing, cutting all contacts with him immediatly. no looking back.
    thank you, love you very much, Edna

    This is a useful video. I just found your site, and I think it is truly awesome. You are an inspiring person, and proof beautiful flowers arise from violent storms. Your circumstance has obviously transformed you into a mountain of compassion. I bow to you sir, and your loving kindness. All blessing be on you.

    Once again you've hit on a subject that many (myself included) continually struggle with.
    I know this to be true: God gave me the strength to leave a bad marriage the end of 2007 just before the economic meltdown.
    Even though I became unemployed and endured many hardships since then, I am so thankful he took me
    out of that situation as things would be so much worse now had I stayed.
    In reflecting back, I began seeing the energy build up in the universe toward the end of 2005 and it pushing or pulling me away from this ever worsening situation. Maybe because we were involved in RE it was more apparent to me as this coincided with the peak and beginning downfall of the market.
    In any case, this wasn't the first time I've been sensitive to universal vibrations...I'm learning to trust my intuition, pay attention to these vibrations and avoid involvement with people, places & things that I know aren't good for me.
    Thank you for putting this out there..once again you are spot on!

    Thank you for sharing this thought provoking video Sean. As I watch your videos I really have to stop and think of where I am in my life at this moment.
    Every good wish always Sean,

    Have U heard of the song "all we are is dust in the wind" . I don't think the Universe cares for our well being - it's neutral. It doesn't gain from our suffering nor does it gain from our gain. I think to just "Go with the flow" is 50/50 chance.
    It's wiser to think and use our rational mind and seek advise of experts before making a decision.

    In your example, the universe would be that baby alone (without you presence) playing with the knife.
    The universe does not care. The baby would eventually cut himself, feel pain, drop the knife and learn.

    Sean, I hear ya. I know what you mean when you speaking of messing with bad objects. Sometimes that happens to me. When it does, even though I may like it, I have been able to discipline myself to just let go.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Not everyone is meant for everyone, or we would have huge personal phone books & would not be able to keep up with everyone every day, my point is if you are a loving person there may be many factors why you grip the so called knives in your life, but I feel the biggest one for me was fear of alone hiding in there somewhere. I am an attractive heart of gold and good-looking person. I still had a hard time breaking energy even if it was a knife, I know look deep inside & remember I am also worth saving & enjoying healthy people in this life ..
    Thank you again Sean from the bottom of my heart for triggering thoughts in my mind & always having you thoughts in perfect timing as to what I am or just recently have gone through. I need reminders & you are that for me,, Namaste & God Bless you in all ways Sean Love always Vivian

    There are many factors, but personally I now see that was self destructive and that somehow I was not in the equation, in that connection, it was all give only on my part. I have now become stronger through adversity not weaker. I know the inner truth now like I mentioned above. I feel I taken conscious effort to spot out the black holes like Sean has mentioned in past videos. Then to also see how better it would be to put down that knife once you see it will cut you. I don’t think it is about dumping everyone out of our lives. What I do see is it is about knowing that you can love everyone but you don’t always have to like everyone or stay with everyone.

    I am not putting anyone down with this disease but I was not capable of handling this , it took me a long time to let it go, even after I finally got away from him, after one of his fits almost killing me & doing major harm to me, it was still hard to close the door to all the efforts, I had put into him , I think somehow we want it all to be pain free & that also keeps us bound cause we don’t want to feel the pain it may take to detach from someone we think we need as well. Some are addicted to needing to be needed.

    I know firsthand how tuff it is to let go of loving a person more then I should, at my own risk and not letting go of them, till I have so called cut myself. I to have attracted into my life in the past a person who I did not understand what was happening till he was diagnosed with dissociative disorder, split personality and bi polar. Being a therapist myself of a more universal spiritual belief , I still did not really have a belief system that this bi polar stuff was true, but now I know better & well maybe I learned this lesson for a reason
