I believe in the power of positive energy. I happen to call that energy, God. Being an engineer, I look at it as a huge network system with nodes and connections. That's all we are - connections of God's loving energy. The positive connections are our love (that we can only get through God) which pushes through the network. The negative energies stay stagnant and die because they can't grow in the network. Prayer is like a push of that energy (God's love) that forces it out further into the network. I know it's weird, but it works for me.
When we hear the expression, "burning bridges," it is important to understand that we are cauterizing that relationship. A new link/node has to be built to re-create that bond/relationship through amends. I wish I had understood this earlier in life. I share my mistakes with you so that you don't have to make them.
This does not mean we have to link-up with all nodes. If it isn't a healthy relationship, we bypass that node to a positive one. It's that simple. We don't have to damage it, we just move like a magnet to the closest positive node to keep the positive life-force alive. It's like a beating heart - your network of love. It needs love to stay alive.
Remember your chemistry class? I know, it's painful for me to remember, too. My dad was a chemistry teacher. I remember as a little girl him tutoring students with these red balls and sticks that he'd put together to make a 3D visual. I was always fascinated with that. I wish he had been my chemistry teacher. The water molecular structure I've shown is how I picture the love network.
