I prefer to burn sage or bridges whatever it takes to remove negativity

After all everything has frequency, and at certain frequencies on the physical plane will mirror those on a higher plane. The smoke of white sage resonates very closely to “the etheric level” which is the very energetically dense level that's directly above the physical dimension. Emotions can get trapped in the etheric level and when there's been a lot of arguments etc, or worse, in one particular place, the space becomes bumpy with the energy of the negative emotions.

Also, it is known that some people have a negative flow of energy due to being bad people and doing bad things in the past also in my experience this is quite rare but they are out there that these people will negatively affect the space they occupy. And also, sometimes something really really bad has happened in a particular place - this bad event will be recorded in the space and people will feel its negative energy for hundreds of years.

Anyway, burning white sage due to the smoke resonating to a calm etheric state will smooth out the bumps caused by negative activity in the past. Burning white sage will not clear out spiritual activity that's being generated by a living spirit but it will neutralise activity caused by turbulent etheric imprints and recordings in the space being treated. A lot of the time, spiritual activity after seeing spirits, having things move around also is caused by disturbed and turbulent etheric energy and so the “smudging” session will take away the activity.

I must admit that as good as burning sage, it is good to burn bridges too! Surprised? Have you not in the past thought there have been relationships where, frankly, you saw no viability in it, and no good place where that road would lead. You only stayed there because you were rather stupid. Some relationships can’t be saved, but “when you love, you stay”. But life, I’ve since learned, is too short to waste on someone who is bent on knowingly destroying themselves and hurting you mercilessly in the process. Therefore, I adamantly refuse to allow myself to be a willing casualty in someone’s war against themselves.

Likewise, when I’m waging a war against myself, anybody who makes the smart choice and opts out gets a pass; they don’t get to be the fuel for the pity party style “Left me when I needed them most” type of feeling. If I’m knowingly and willingly driving my vehicle directly toward a tree at maximum speed do I respect anybody smart enough to cut their losses and let me hit the tree by myself instead of letting themselves be dragged along in my self-inflicted wreck.

For some people, they make being with them mean a lot of work. Frankly speaking, I can endure a lot, but when somebody has the opportunity to make their situation better, and of course they acknowledge that the opportunity has presented itself, and they choose to not take advantage of it but then I’m done. If that makes me a “bad person”, so be it. In one instance of my bad youth, I met a young woman who said she knew the right choices, the smart choices, but she wouldn’t take any of them unless they were the easiest choices she could find.

Now I’m happy to stay through the hard times and fight for you as a loyal soldier in your army, but if at any point it becomes obvious that the hard times are welcomed, even invited…I love/respect myself enough to leave you to the problems you care for more than me. Let us agree that some bridges are self-burning; I’m not going to torture and scar myself trying to put out a fire you won’t stop fanning. When one lover decides that they have no interest in another day in a relationship it’s over.

When we love together as a couple, we end because of either, or, or both individuals. We give love without obligation. Our lover gives love back without obligation. That’s the beauty of love, a day by day flow of small gifts of love for another day from each of you. Sadly most loves end in fire and flames. If the bridges built were not solid stone, they will go up in flames and everyone will get burned because you both tried and both failed.

That scorched earth ending of love never made much sense to me. I believe in trying to save a relationship as long as each lover wishes to save it, not because one tested it and the other didn’t respond. Some relationships that end in flames and destruction lacked the foundation of a lifetime love. They were simply never meant to be. So be done with it and burn the bridges for mental peace. Cheers!
