Friend,
I have to admit, this one caught me by surprise. I honestly thought wanting to be recognized was simply a trapping of the ego.
As I received the 8th of the10 Emotional Needs of the Soul (that we’ve been exploring each month), I was a bit shocked. But, I opened up and let this quality of life settle in so I could feel it. Then I realized…
There were times when I really wanted to be recognized for a body of work I’d accomplished, but hadn’t felt recognized at all. And truthfully, it hurt.

As I sat with the idea of my legacies being recognized, it actually brought me some comfort. Maybe, just maybe, it would be OKAY to be recognized.
As the Grandmothers showed the first Elder, AriannThomas, and I what happens when you are not recognized in your life for the legacies you are leaving, I understood why the soul longs for this to be fulfilled.

Signs of not being recognized include:
|
|
- Feeling resentful of your own accomplishments
- Hardly recognizing your acheivements
- Undermining or sabotaging your success
- Thinking of yourself as less than what you really are
- Having difficulty accepting a compliment
- Rarely feeling good enough
- Having difficulty recognizing the accomplishments of others
Somewhere between the ages of 40-90, you will fulfill some degree of expertise in your life or have created something of value that could benefit others.
This is when recognition becomes important, because is this when you are creating your legacy for the future.

|
|
When you are recognized for your life work, you are:
|
|
- Feeling proud of your accomplishments
- Honoring those accomplishments and are pleased to share what you have learned with others
- Building upon your acheivements to create even greater success and influence in creating a wonderful world
- Honoring the challenges you’ve overcome and the results you’ve been able to get
- Seeing the wonder of Divine influence in your acts of creation
- Sharing your acts of creation because they are expressions of Divine love, meant to be experienced by others
- Receiving compliments graciously with an open heart, allowing the cycle of giving and receiving to be fulfilled through you
- Understanding when someone compliments you, they are seeing something wonderful inside themselves too
- Feeling good enough to do what you were uniquely created to experience
- Easily recognizing the accomplishments of others, as you honor the Divine expressing through them.

|
Of course, it’s good to be humble, but none of us have to be so humble that we can’t celebrate how the Divine has been flowing, engaging and expressing through us and those we meet.
|
|
You’ll know your humbleness quotient is in balance if you don’t need to brag or exaggerate, but can clearly and gratefully speak to what you have been empowered and supported in accomplishing.
|
|
Of course, as with the other 10 Emotional Needs of the Soul, once this quality has been met deep inside by you and the Divine, people in your life recognize you too.
Receiving recognition might be a little unnerving at first, if you are not used to it, so you might want to remind yourself ahead of time to graciously accept and treasure those moments when they occur.
If you have not felt recognized yet for your life work, it is probably time to take this quality into your Holding meditation (available for free at SacredFeminineAwakening.com), and allow the Mystery to recognize you!
After all, you were created to to leave something meaningful behind, and part and those successes and accomplishments are worthy of recognition.
I'd love for you to share your experience…

Holding you recognition for all you have created,
