The Reactor

Everything was a reaction, nothing was planned for the reactor. Never prepared always dragging behind like that one bird that drifted away from the flock. Maybe it was habits the reactor was taught, move fast before thought? Those types of movements can put a strain on a young heart in the early stages, even in later years. The reactor doesn't have a clear connection with the sense of when to start or stop, but the reactor does feel. Distorted memories of what it was like to be organized, expecting what was certain to arrive, refusing to let that last petal on the rose stem die. The reactor isn't much different from you and I.

With a lack of connection to the source that allows us the foresight to plan our day, the reactor is often in their own way. Missed opportunities often lurk at the corners of the reactor's doubts, but the lost child still doesn't throw in the towel. See, like you and I, the reactor has the vision to thrive, the time to manifest, let old dreams come to life, but the fear of not handling responsibility becomes the hanging knife over the head of a person who always watches their watch, but doesn't know the time. It's fine, pressure has always been a builder, organization like the healer.

It's always easier to breathe and allow self to recieve. To plan and understand the importance of time management, in these times full of signs telling us to be dignified, an over-sense of pride and lack of drive may lead to one following the stride of someone who often believes in their own lies; i.e. the ego. If you are only reacting to things and or people in your life you could be giving out undeserved energy and time to something, or someone who doesn't know the importance of either. Rather one is reacting or responding, both are necessary and are very similar but reacting solely is based on emotion alone usually not having any real logic. On the other hand, responding usually happens after the desired outcome has been considered in any interaction; in other words, responding is like directing the ball into the hoop from calculations based on where you're standing on the court. Reacting is like, throwing the ball in the air knowing that it's going to land, but not caring where it falls.

Reacting isn't all bad, I've talked about the negatives now let's look into some of the benefits of being a good reacter. See, reacting could be the result of the urge you get at the pit of your core telling you to hide the carry out that you just brought because you have greedy roommates. Reacting could be the action you take to protect yourself in dangerous, possibly life-threatening situations, protecting loved ones, protecting your peace, etc... Two things for sure, a sense of direction can take you where you want to go, no sense of direction can put you in the middle of nowhere.

So now, the ball is in your court. Do you want to be a reactor or a responder? Be honest because both are necessary, but one has no sense of direction. As you make your transformation and come into discission making you may see a barn owl fly over you at night, don't worry, he is a sign of your transformation. For what was anticipated shall come your way with patience but not stagnance, be free for that distorted vision may be blurry but it's yours. Reacter, it is time to get orgainzed and become a responder.
