Blame
Why is it that more and more people seem to be unable to take responsibility for their lives. We want to blame our wives or husbands, our children, our neighbors, politicians and even our government for all our problems. We are so sure that outside evidence of our lives has nothing to do with us that we as a social conglomerate have accepted lawsuits and political correctness as more important than personal responsibility. This is an example of the tail wagging the dog.
I have found that if I am willing to accept my part in ALL my woes and correct ME, my life improves and I become more patient and tolerant of others. As far as our government is concerned, most of us seem to forget that the government has always been, is now and hopefully will continue to be "WE THE PEOPLE." We must absolve all our problems within ourselves and in our own lives before we can demand the government change. The best way to resolve our current politcal problems is to vote for representatives who will support apithology (empowerment) instead of pathology (micromanagement). We must put our support on ways to put ourselves number one in the world through better financial, spiritual and political management instead of blame. Blame can only accentuate the problem and in no way can resolve it.
We need to stop blaming and start creating in us, the things we expect from others. The feelings I have that promote my need to blame is fear, developed by my response to powerlessness. I hate being powerless! The truth is that I am only powerless over things outside myself, leaving the power I have within myself. I cannot change what you think of me but I can certainly change how important your opinions have over my personal esteem. So the answer to self-esteem comes from apithological treatment instead of our pathological treatment of our problems.
As we are all made in the image and likeness of God, We have within ourselves conscience, which often becomes at odds with our beliefs. When our actions, sometimes created by our Ego or human consciousness, and our spiritual principals, set by our conscience, or spiritual consciousness conflict we tend to turn outside of ourselves in order to resolve it. The truth is that the actual battle is inside each of us and once we win the war inside us the war outside us is dissolved. In metaphysics the word SIN is an acronym for Self Inflicted Nonsense.
Through prayer and meditation one can eventually win the war of SIN. It is in prayer and meditation that one sees themselves as they truly are and not as they have learned to see themselves through the vale of denial. Christians use the term "Born Again," as an ends but it is actually only a means. It is merely a point of crossing over to our spiritual nature sufficiently to provides the essential desire to stay with God and work toward our spiritual perfection.
Until we can achieve personal perfection as a result of duplicating the seven aspects of God in us and in our lives, we cannot fully reconnect with our higher nature. In review from my recent past blogs, let us recap the seven aspects of God; life, truth, love, intelligence, soul, spirit and principal. We must stay aware and focused on our own lives by constantly remembering...
Your Life is PERFECT!
