Your world is a mirror!!

We live in a great big world better known as the Earth. Every individual has their own version of this world. This version is based upon the person’s experiences and thoughts, making it unique to them. We create the world we live in therefore create our own destiny based on our choices and decisions.


Our world is like a reflective mirror. Whatever our soul sends out into this world is reflected and returns to us just as we sent it out. If you send out love, you will get love in return. If you send out hate, you will get hate in return. If you send out prejudice, you will get prejudice in return and so on. Be careful when you angry or fearful because you will only get anger and fear in return. Choose your wording and your thoughts carefully. Be mindful of what you are projecting into your world.


Stop, look at yourself, and listen to your thoughts before you react. What you are thinking at the moment, is that really what you want to project out into your world? Is it positive or negative? Will it enhance your life or hinder your life? Are you able to forgive and let go and send love?


These are a few things to think about to create the life and world you would like to live in! It is easier said than done but with practice and focusing it is definitely something that is doable. What are you waiting for start now!

NOW!

Shocking title "NOW" isn't it?

Have you ever stopped to wonder what your life would be like if your mind never thought of the past or the future? Have you ever struggled trying to turn your thoughts off? Do you meditate or pray?

I ask all these questions for one reason. I am trying to get you to realize how busy our minds are and what affect our mind/ego has on our lives. If we never thought of the past or the future we would not have conflict inside of ourselves. If we learned to live in the now we wouldn't have old issues to deal with. If you think about it some of those old issues cause us our most grief and emotions such as fear, anger, sadness and resentment. They also possess happy emotions as well. But for the most part when we dwell on things that were not so good in the past they affect our current state "our now state". The same goes for thinking of the future. If we worry about how we are going to make it or what things will happen to us we initiate the fear/worry emotion. We need to take one day at a time for the most part and live in the NOW as much as we can.

I am not saying that this is easy by any means. I am also not saying that we shouldn't have goals or dreams or heaven forbid think about things. I am just saying that when your mind will not turn off try to visualize it from the outside looking in and see what emotions these thoughts are stirring up inside of you. Try to be the observer of your thoughts. See if this is really relevant to what is currently going on in your life or if it is old issues creeping up on you. Things that have happened in the past should be laid to rest. Then stop those thoughts and realize that they are old issues causing these feelings and dismiss them. They are not doing you any good actually they are hindering your progress.

Try meditating and to focus on your breathing. This will help keep you in the present moment, the NOW!
