Okay I have to admit I’m a huge fan of True Blood and Twilight and I have had this crazy fascination about vampires ever since Brad Pitt in Interview with a vampire. I mean people like Ann Rice have glamorized vampires so much that people just wanna grow fangs and bite someone. I mean come on, vampires are so cool right, too bad they aren’t real. The crazy thing is vampires are very much real and living amongst us. I mean don’t get me wrong they aren’t pale skinned, fang flaunting, night crawling, blood sucking vampires. Vampires look like every day people, walk the streets with us, work with us, live with us and babysit our kids; they are the girls at the beauty salon, and the people you deal with at work. They don’t suck your blood; they just drain your energy and leave you dry and miserable. Some Vampires don’t even know they are sucking you dry, most people aren’t even aware they are victims. Oh but don’t get things twisted, these vampires turn you into vampires as well; They suck you hollow so that your dreams look so far from reality that you don’t want anyone else to dream. So you start putting out negative energy like them, complaining, gossiping, getting mad over nothing then you start sucking others dry. These people are called Spiritual Vampires and they are EVERY WHERE. Think about it, do you have that friend that every time you speak to her or him, you come all excited about something, full of life and energy and excitement, but by the time you leave the person your whole mood changes. You aren’t even excited about your news anymore, you feel drained of your energy and void. I mean sometimes it’s direct; the person has fifty million reasons why you shouldn’t be excited, why your plans won’t work, etc. Then there are times where it’s indirect, instead of being happy for your good news and pushing you towards your goals they just complain about theirs, how life is so bad for them, how they are so miserable, to the point where you are just in such a bad mood you don’t even feel good about your news. Some people know they are vampires (maybe not vampires but that they are being negative) they want to bring you down, they might not even know the reasons why, but they know if you feel as bad as them, they don’t feel alone in misery. I mean seriously think about all the people in your life who are vampires. People who tell you that you can’t do things, that always want to argue about everything, people who are always depressed and bringing you down with their problems. I mean don’t get me wrong, everyone has issues from time to time, but some people dwell on their issues and give them so much power, instead of looking at things in a positive light or doing things to make changes in their lives. These are the people you need to beware of. If you continue to keep these people in your life they will continue to drain you until you, yourself become a spiritual vampire. Fight Spiritual Vampires, Stay positive and focused. Remember that when people anger you it’s one of the easiest ways to you’re your energy. Don’t be quick to anger; try to laugh it off as much as possible. Remember that your dreams are only as far away as you want them to be. Nothing is impossible if you really want it and nothing comes easy. Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something or that you can’t be something or that it’s too hard to achieve, never let anyone rob you of your joy. The next time a spiritual vampire tries to suck you dry, smile and let them know they can’t have any of your energy today, you need it.

ReplyDeleteLove love love your commentary on "vampires" this was the best blog to date miss soulstar! I had my anticipation for this topic today and you did not disappoint. As a matter of fact this rang clear to me and now i know which " spiritual vampire " I need to stop letting suck me dry...
ReplyDeleteSoooooouuuuullllll starrrrrrrr got it goin on today with this one !! hehehehehe HAPPY MONDAY!
u amaze me everytime with these blogs. i must admit i stay checking in. good job. vampires huh? i totally agree with you on this. pepole can drain you for sho. u know the old saying is misery likes company. well i think that's exactly what it all boils down to. sometimes people want misery so they shun positivity to make themselves feel better about their negative ways. i'm sure i've drained people at times too, but if i did i didn't mean to. we'e all human but if people know of their negative ways and continue to use em...i'll tell em good luck and continue walking with my hands in my pocket and my smirk. i hear you girl. brush the vampires of ya neck. ;)
