Boundaries and the Sincere Soul Blueprint
The term boundaries is overused and is too limited for the intricate way I wish to convey the separateness, yet relatedness of the true self for purposes of healing self love and self worth. So, today I’m coining a new phrase to help define the self. My new term is the Sincere Soul Blueprint. blue•print bloo͞′prĭnt″ Noun -A contact print of a drawing or other image rendered as white lines on a blue background, especially such a print of an architectural plan or technical drawing. Noun- A mechanical drawing produced by any of various similar photographic processes, such as one that creates blue or black lines on a white background. Noun- A detailed plan of action. At Manifest in the Midwest, we shall use the term “Sincere Soul Blueprint” when talking about the distinction of your true and separate self relative to the rest of the world. The Sincere Soul Blueprint has many attributes, including boundaries, easements (where people can get through), fences and structures. The most important thing to understand is that you own something–you have full 100% rights and use of YOU. You are responsible for yourself and to yourself. You are responsible for guarding yourself, tending to yourself and expanding your territory. When you are born,you became an owner of YOU. When you were born, out of your mother’s womb, you took a breath. That breath automatically gave you inherent worth. This inherent worth comes with it’s own territory. You own this territory, and this is your Sincere Soul Blueprint. I’m using this term for the purpose of healing and recovering self worth and self love. You own yourself. You have rights to yourself. Think of it this way: You are an energetic structure, and you have ownership rights to do with yourself what you need to do to be true to you. Aspects of Your Sincere Soul Your thoughts, feelings Your goals and desires Your skills, talents and abilities Your goals, dreams and visions Your beliefs and opinions Your past experiences Your current experience Your Presence Your values Your empathy Your energy and time Your inner healing The list could go on, but hopefully you’re getting the point. You are separate. Yes, we are all one at the base level, but for purposes of self worth, self esteem and self love, it’s vital that you understand this very tangible quality that you have, which is yourself. Using the idea of a blueprint is a helpful visualization of your existence, potentials and limitations. Your Sincere Soul Blueprint is Who You are Your Sincere Soul is who you are, not who other people want you to be. Your True Self is who you are beneath all the trauma, abuse, false notions, misconceptions, mistakes and wrong turns. Your True Self is always True and can never be destroyed. So long as you have breath in you, you own your True Self. No one has the right to take it away, and only you can allow others to tell you how to execute your rights on your own property, which is you. As the owner of your life, it is your responsibility to tend to your property, which is you. Of course, you are not a literal object, but this is merely an analogy to help you understand that you exist, that you have worth, and that you are equal to any other property out there, because you exist, you have ownership and existence rights. Your Sincere Soul Blueprint is not armor to keep us safe. It’s the blueprint to our being. It means you know yourself so you can stick up for your needs and emotions without feeling guilty. Boundaries are there to guide you and others on what does and doesn’t work for you. It’s the plan for treating yourself with love, care, trust, respect, and knowing your limit. So you can guide others to treat you similarly or they can move along. What Exists on Your Blueprint? – Walls, Boundaries, Property Borders, Fences, Gates – Livestock, Crops – Buildings, Barns, – Ponds, Wooded Areas, Pasture – Wells, Septic – Streets, Roads Your Sincere Soul Blueprint is YOU. And you get to enjoy all the rights inherent to ownership of yourself. You do not have to allow yourself to be run over by weeds. You do not have to allow foxes in to steal the eggs your hens lay. You do not have to let relatives squat in your guest house. Your property is your property and it is your personal responsibility to tend to the items represented by your Sincere Soul Blueprint.
