shades of grey exist

"The good guys and bad guys aren't as easy to tell apart as I used to think they were. You can't look at someone with your eyes and take their measures. You have to look with the heart"

As I finished reading a fiction series of books which I have been reading for the past four months I came across this quote which was literally the last sentence at the end of the last book in the series and I couldn't help but realize and feel the truth that those very words held. So remember, as we go about our days working to make a living and to do what is just for our friends and family to judge someone simply for their stark actions or by their appearance alone simply doesn't begin to define what's really brewing within a person's soul. There is a saying that goes like this, "if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck then it probably is a duck" and I have to say that things simply aren't that simple. Come to everyone you encounter with a heart full of love and an openness to accept them. Look at them in a grand light, a light which can only shine goodness and go with the feeling that you gain from them instead of simply their actions and physical appearance. Look with your heart instead of your eyes and you will see a beauty that isn't seen by many but a beauty that is more real then any other beauty that exist. There are shades of gray in the whole scheme of things so to see a person's try nature you really do need to use that heart of yours and open those eyes of the heart to see the in real sight. So as we go with our weeks of struggles and life lessons we should take heed and gain the lesson of the heart so that we are able to see the true loving intentions that we may miss if only looking with our eyes which have more so been dirtied by this fear based world that we find ourselves in anyway. Look with the heart, not simply the eyes and the truth of it all will be told in full.

Light Breeze (by Rumi)

Tonight as I sat, reading poems by Rumi I came across a poem that I feel I must share with all whom comes across my blog post. I need not say anything else about this beautiful poem because it truly does speak for itself.

As regards feeling pain, like a hand cut in battle, consider the body a robe you wear. When you meet someone you love, do you kiss their clothes? Search out who's inside. Union with God is sweeter than body comforts. We have hands and feet different from these. Sometimes in dream we see them. That is not illusion. Its seeing truly. You do have a spirit body. Don't dread leaving the physical one. Sometimes someone feels this truth so strongly that he or she can live in mountain solitude totally refreshed. The worried, heroic doings of men and women seem weary and futile to dervishes enjoying the light breeze of spirit.

That inner growth

If not for that inner growth I would not even bother. Yea, I workout a lot but if only to appease the vanity, I would not even dare. If not for that inner growth I would not even try. I make an effort to express Love because of that inner aspect, this is where worlds are created from mere dreams and passions are discovered. That inner aspect, where my true soul mate lies, where heaven dwells with all of its perfections. That inner growth is the only true growth. Allow your inner dwellings to sprout as a plant from a seed and then water it with the essence of Love which is the food that this inner aspect does crave. That inner growth is the only true growth that exist. Its best you realize that now before its too late!

The blasphemy challenge???

While surfing YouTube to see what new videos might be going viral I came across this one video which for some reason I checked out. Now I'm not going to spend a lot of time or energy writing about this subject because I kind of thing its silly but within the subject I feel a message that we all need to embrace could be learned. Let me get to the point. In the video this lady sat in front of a camera to say that she denies God. She just wanted to let the world know that she denies God or any other deity because to her they aren't real and they are stupid. She claimed that religion makes people wait to die to get rewards and she wanted to live. When I heard this message I thought that it was simply a waste of time and silly. I mean why would you spend time and energy to deny something that you don't believe in? If it doesn't exist then why deny it? Something inside of you does believe in what you are denying if you need to deny it in the first place. If I enjoy my life I don't need to say, "I deny unhappiness in life" because if I did that then its like I really don't enjoy life and am trying to convince that aspect that lives within me which is telling me that life really is an unhappy experience. I mean I don't sit around and deny Santa Claus or the Easter bunny, I simply don't believe in them, they don't exist so why spend any time and energy denying them? Belief is a verb, to believe in something is to hold something in your brain as in you need to give thought to something if you believe in it point blank. When we deny or believe in something we are simply using two sides of the same coin in our efforts, its all the same. If I put thought to something I am putting thought to something whether it be negative or positive and I am still promoting it regardless. This is why in the world of entertainment they say any press is good press. This is why when a movie or book is slammed in the media of being bad or evil they usually do better then they would have done if the people who didn't agree with the message would have kept their mouths shut in the first place.

I say just be love. I for my personal reasons do believe in God. With all that I know and learned, all that I have experienced and done within life and through my simple perception a lone I can't help but believe in God. But this belief that I have in God works for me and is my decision for my life. If one doesn't want to believe in a god then fine but if there is no God then why even bother speaking on it at all? Just believe in what you believe in. There is no point in trying to insult or bring down someone elses beliefs because anyone who tries to bring another person down in any way is just looking for company. If one thinks highly of themselves and their beliefs then they try and uplift others, if one thinks of themselves as something low and ugly they will try to bring others down to their level so they won't be a lone. Love is the way, the answer and Love is happiness. I say God is Love but if you don't want to say that or believe that, fine. Just believe in Love. Be loving and life will be better, express love and you will receive more love in life. Just be love. If you feel you can be Love without religion, fine, but if you are expressing Love you are a person who really wants all to find Love and express it as well even if they need some guidance from a religion to do so. Religion does help a lot of people find themselves so I won't down religion. I am not a religious person but that is just me. I am spiritual but not religious but again, that is just my take on things. So to end this blog post I will say this, believe in what you believe in and leave everything else a lone because if you put energy and thought into something you don't believe in you actually do believe in it whether you want to admit it or not. This blasphemy challenge is so silly anyway. All these people who take part in the blasphemy challenge are simply trying to piss off people who chose to believe in God so that those people can feel angry, thus bringing a God believing person's energy down to the level of the so called "denying" person's. Express Love and Love only, gain understanding on why some people need religion within their lives and others don't and simply respect it. If you spend time denying a god you are just as bad as a person who sits and tries to force a belief of god down some one's throat. You are all in the same boat and don't even know it. Simply be love and all will be well.

We can live in a great economy now

If a person who lives in a place with a booming economy believes that he or she lives in a place with a horrid economy that person will experience just that as fact. If a person whom lives in a country that has a so called perfect economy reads newspapers and watches only television shows from a country that has a bad economy that person will live as if they are in the country with the bad economy thus manifesting horrid economic situations for themselves. WE ARE OUR ECONOMY AND THE ONLY WAY TO CHANGE THE ECONOMY IS TO CHANGE OUR THOUGHTS TOWARDS IT POINT BLANK. The economy isn't like birds that migrate south every winter, it has nothing to do with nature and it doesn't even exist outside of us. There isn't a political leader that can change the economy if the people who are counting on him continue to hold on to the thought that the economy stinks. So this is what I want everyone who reads this blog post to do. I want YOU to truly start believing that we live in a great economy and I want you to do it NOW. The media does brain wash us, it plants memes (mind viruses) in our heads and because of this we are controlled but this doesn't have to be the case. Let's change this so called economic crisis of ours right now by simply gaining a knowing that we all have the power to do so. So in closing I want everyone who reads this blog post to repeat after me, WE LIVE IN A GREAT COUNTRY WITH A GREAT ECONOMY. It is just that easy.

Always be and remain in a place called Love because Love rules all. Love even rules the economy and a loving economy is a great one.

Claim your issues!

I know a person who falls a sleep all of the time and even though this is constantly occurring he doesn't accept the fact that this sleeping thing may be an issue of his. He tends to put it off on him not getting enough sleep at night or it being late or even him drinking and so forth. In other words he puts his issues off on outside sources, they are never of him so he keeps the deluded feeling that anyone and everyone would act the way that he does so he doesn't have to do anything about it and that falling asleep in the middle of a conversation when he is the one talking or falling asleep in a loud club with all types of people dancing around him is normal. I looked into the sleep issue for him and presented some ideas of what it may be, he shot the ideas down cold and is still living in this la la land of his.

No one is exempt from what I am about to say so listen up. We all have issues, all of us. I have a skin issue and if I never acknowledge this, I would have a body odor issue just to name a few of my own. If I were to name all of the issues I have I would be able to start a blog post named "My Issues" and it would be a very long blog post too. But this doesn't mean I am not healthy or that something is wrong with me, it doesn't even mean that my issues are truly my fault at all.

In a very, very, very metaphysical aspect everything that I am and everything that I will become is my fault and my doing so in a way I believe that our issues are our fault but in a very metaphysical way. This doesn't mean that we are totally conscious of how our issues manifested within our realities so in saying this there is no point in blaming ourselves for our issues. We may have physical issues, mental issues and so forth, I believe that we all have some of both of the aspects that I named that issue derive from. But even though the metaphysical does exist I will never say that it is truly a person's fault that fears men in general because they were raped as a child. I will never say that for the most part children with cancer hold any of the blame for their condition, I will never sit and say because people are starving in the world they should hold there heads in shame, I just won't do it because on a conscious level they are not to blame. But if an issue is had the best way to do something about it is to claim it and admit to yourself that YES you do have an issue. If you don't claim your issues then you will never be able to do anything to rectify them.

So that is what it is about, claim it so that you have a chance to change it. Everything that we are is apart of us, it makes no since for anyone to allow the ego to have them believe that an issue that they have isn't theirs. Ever since I was a child I have had an issue with my sweating and because of it when I became of age and since I am not a small person I had an issue with my body odor. I could have said to myself, "I don't stink" and just lived in that deluded place but imagine if I did do that. I would be walking around at my age today stinking. I may have a strong body odor but I can honestly say that I really don't smell bad and this is because I claimed my body odor issue a long time ago. My mother told me that as a baby I use to just lay in the crib and sweat for no reason so do you think it was truly my choosing to be this way? But even so, I still claimed the fact that yes, I stink. Me claiming this drove me to do research on the issue and to come up with a solution to it so that it wouldn't run my life. It took me a few embarrassing moments too because I didn't come up with a solution for my odor issue over night. But still imagine what I would be today if I would have never acknowledged the issue in the first place?

A lot of people try to be and live this lie that our fear based society has deemed normal in such a way that they deny aspects of themselves in this task thus rendering all control to chance. Well let me share a secret with you, no one is "normal". We all are different and yes, we all have issues, some which are down right embarrassing but this is only the case because so many of us believe in what this society of ours deems to be right or normal. So I have told you first hand, don't be embarrassed about your issues, claim them with pride. Claim them as if you were the person who chose them, claim them just as you would claim something of yourself that others would look up to. Own them and then if they are issues that could really cause problems in your life, change them. Once you own something it is yours to do what you like with, that is the key here and that is why there is no point in looking at something in a way that your egos or our society would have you look at it. Everything that you are is a part of you point blank. Overcoming our issues is an aspect of life that causes us to grow. They cause us to grow into stronger, wiser, more understanding, and more loving people. Nothing that is of you exist outside of you, it is all located within. Be Love and use that very Love that you have to rectify every issue that may hold you back from being all that you were meant to be in life.

The Blessing

The blessing could be found in a book or poem, it could be also found in a smile of a child or the meow of a kitten. The blessing could be acquired in nature, in giving, in caring, in sharing and the unnecessary selflessness that thrives to bring out world as it should be. The blessing is located within heaven: it lives in the perfection that could only be expressed through the truth at hand. The blessing is something that shows us who we are and also shows that we all deserve to gain all out happiness and joy within life. But the blessing has to be looked a pond not over. It has to be embraced just as if it was a small child which is a perfect example of innocence and joy. The blessing lives within all of us and was endowed within our hearts and souls the day that God breathed life into out feeble, earthly bodies making them divine at the very moment. The blessing has to be recognized to be gained, even in the harsh times and that light which the blessing promises to shine will find us and show a path which is ours for the keeping. This path is a path that can only lead us to our personal heaven which is a promise for all who keeps Love at the forefront within life. Receive this stark insight and with it you will get to know and understand the true living God and with that understanding you will always be in a place of living, seeing, expressing and being Love. The blessing is there within you and if only you would open yourselves up to receive it, then you would see that this gift called life and the blessing are one in the same. Gain your blessing, bless others and watch the world become a beacon of light and joy for all to cherish and thrive a pond

The Blessing, what a beautiful thing!
