An internal watchdog

The idea of a watchdog is interesting right? For me it conjures up ferocious dogs positioned at a gate, or at the front door, ready to snarl, bark ,and leap into action whenever needed.....when I was with my first boyfriend, we lived together in our 20s....I owned a house, and we were planning on getting married....(PS thank goodness, I did not marry him yikes lol) ......and he had a German Shepherd......Rocky....and he was the sweetest, but he most definitely had watchdog vibes when the UPS truck guy came......he HATED that guy?? Weird right? He would snarl... and fuss and bark so ferociously, and I would have to keep him back if I opened the door and hold his collar.....which wasn't easy.....and he was fiercely protective.....and sweet in all the right ways.....He was a good boy....and that image came to mind this morning when my topic came to me for the day...and it is how I feel now.....like there is an internal watchdog....within me.....keeping me safe from the places I don't belong.....and leading me to the places I do....and my watchdog is like Rocky.....willing to leap into action, and aggressively move me from the places I don't belong.....and gently nudge me lovingly to the places I do....and I suppose that watchdog existed my whole life.....we can name it all sorts of things.....I believe it is divinely guided no question....and in that divine guidance is where clarity and understanding arrives....always....and the listening of it finally.....the paying attention to it....finally.....has made all of the difference....my intuition is finally regulated.....my gut wiser.....my ability to trust it all clearer, and it keeps me on my path......and I cannot fully express the peace that brings to my life.....a freedom.....that is hard to articulate truly......it allows me to LIVE.....like really LIVE......and all I need to do is get quiet.....pray sometimes......or meditate......or be still....and there it is......or follow what speaks to my heart.....this is for you Jenn......this is not.....and my intuition has become so loud......that lovely watchdog within.....remaining steadfast....and standing guard.....and it makes me feel so protected.....it is such a safe and comforting feeling, and evokes such deep gratitude......and even when life gets hi def.....which can we talk about this week so far??? HOLY MOLY lol:) it doesn't matter......that watchdog never rests.... she has great love for me....and is willing to be loyal and steadfast and true.....I have a lot of super exciting things coming up.......moving pieces that are piecing together beautifully and it is wildly exciting.....and I am grateful for my watchdog....not as ferocious as she seems;-) just a softie at heart.....but wise....oh so wise:) Happy WEDNESDAY:)
