Entanglements

Entanglement is a complicated relationship or situation, similar to cheating or having an affair. It can happen in various areas of life, like work, business, or even with ourselves. Entanglements can distract us from our purpose and blind us to the harm they cause. They tie us to people, places, and things that we shouldn't be tied to, keeping us in bondage and self-deception. It's important to reflect on our entanglements and find ways to be free from them. Let go of relationships that drain or harm us and strive to be our authentic selves. Just like detangling hair, freeing ourselves from entanglements can be liberating. In 2023, let's focus on detangling and being free. Hey, it's Tanya from Girl, You Gotta Talk. And today's word is entanglement. Entanglement is a complication. It's a difficult relationship or situation. In other words, to me, it's just a cute way of saying cheating or I've had an affair or I've done something and I ain't got no business doing and now I'm all tied up in it. Yeah, that's what entanglement really is. But I want you to think about other things and not just a relationship, a physical relationship or an emotional relationship, but think about an entanglement because we can get ourselves entangled in a job. We can get ourselves entangled in a business. We can get ourselves entangled with our family, our friends, relationships. Sometimes we can even be entangled with ourselves. You say, how can I get entangled with myself? It's easy. It's not seeing, not fulfilling your purpose, not fulfilling your destiny. Being so entangled and disillusioned with what it is that you're doing that you can't see that the situation that you're in is really hurting you, is hindering you, is a situation that has you in bondage. That's how we can get ourselves or be entangled with ourselves. Anything, I think, that takes us on a detour from our purpose and it hinders us from fulfilling our destiny and we are blinded to that fact, I think that those are entanglements of self. Entanglement ties us to people. It ties us to places. It ties us to things that we were never meant to be tied to. It derails and it blinds us from seeing the light and the best in us and sometimes the best in others as well. It keeps us in bondage and too many times it keeps us self-deceived. Just take a moment. Stop. Stop what it is that you're doing. Hear beyond the words that I am saying and reflect on what it is that you have entangled yourself with, entanglements that you let go, entanglements that you detangled yourself from, and entanglements that you're still holding on to that got you, even if it just had you a little bit by the toe, but it got you. We can ask for strategies and ways to be detangled and set free. It's 2023. We're at the halfway mark of 2023, halfway to 2024, then 2024. Do you want to be held in bondage still with the things that have held you, kept you from really being the best of the best, the best of who it is that you can be that has kept you from being your authentic self, or do you want to let go? Do you want to be free? Free from people, free from fame, free from a job, free from relationships that are not prosperous, free from relationships that are draining you, free from relationships that are really literally killing you. Are you ready to be free? Are you ready to be detangled? You know, if you have thick hair and you wash your hair, it's a whole mess because everything is entangled, it's tangled up. But when you put that detangler condition in it and it starts to work and you're working your hands in it and you're just working it and you're just working it, and when that tangled mess becomes untangled, it's a liberating feeling. And that's what happens when you get rid of entanglement. So for the remainder of 2023, let's be detangled from entanglement and be free.
