Will Power?

Saw a commercial this morning where a little girl walks up to this ladies door and is offering doughnuts for sale. The lady slams the door in the girls face and says, "you're cute". The logo for Kellogs pops up and the word Willpower and a little tidbit about their new protein bar.

In tradition of Chakras we talk about the 3rd energetic space, that of will power. Manipura, the city of jewels, that place where we as individuals find our own space of following our will. Can this space have a duality of "no you cannot have a doughnut" but also that of "do what you will" all found in the belly-ironically enough- this conflict between the yin and the yang, the black and the white in this chakra, in my opinion finds a beautiful shade of gray. 

 

What is our society telling us, and is anyone else out there seeing it? 

It's okay go against what you may want, and lets call it willpower...

What happened to all things in moderation? Be mindful of your choices, knowing that those choices have a direction but regardless follow your will-follow your gut and there you will find strength.
