Points of Perception

Reality:  the quality or state of being real; a real event, entity, or state of affairs; the totality of real things and events.

              Everything around us and about who we are influences how we perceive reality. Our perception often changes. I suppose because we are always changing, and growing. Sometimes we “see” something or someone or a situation a cretin way. As people we tend to think that our perception is the right perception. We often forget that everyone around us thinks the same thing, or we don’t even think about that they have their own separate, possibly completely different, perception. We use our differences in perception to keep us separate from each other. We often get mad or hurt by others when we don’t like how they perceive something or some situation. We take it very personal if they do not agree with us or we make them wrong if they see it differently than we do. Sometimes we get stuck in that anger or righteousness instead of really seeing things from the other person’s point of perception. Nor do we try to care or understand why they may feel the way they do.
             I feel that when we feel the maddest or most hurt by someone else’s perception of reality is when we really need to dig deep and see why it offends us so much. What about this perception is reminding us of something else we have been through or someone else’s difference of perception that has offended us. Perhaps it is because we haven’t let go of old ways of being or of thinking. We could use these moments of our life that are really difficult or that hurt us as a way to look at ourselves from a point of perception outside of ourselves. Perhaps we don’t like it because we don’t want to be perceived that way or we don’t like to think that we may have been doing or looking at a situation from a narrow-minded way, from a selfish point of perception. We could use these feeling of hurt or anger as a clue a hint that we are not operating from a conscious vibration. That we are holding ourselves back usually out of fear. We can use them as clues to help find a better way of being in the world. Use it as a tool to finding a better way of interacting with the world and people in it.
               Growing in this particular manner is very difficult for me and I think most humans. Most of you know that my main goal in life is to be a being of light, to spread all encompassing peace and unconditional love through the world. I am making a commitment to myself today that I am going to start being open to reality from every different point of perception, not just mine. I am going to be open to using other people’s point of perception as a tool to better myself and make my point of perception well rounded and less emotional.

Day 27

Today I am thankful for pride.


               Pride is a total double edge sward for me. At times I am very prideful and stubborn. I know that everyone has those moments and I have learned to make them fewer and farther between. Pride in this manor can be pretty unhealthy and destructive. I feel good that I have learned this lesson at a young age. I feel as though I still have a lot to learn when it comes to pride. Sometimes I judge myself to much, take things to personally, and tell myself things that are mean. This is the most wicked and for me hardest to overcome. Fact is this is my prideful ego who is telling me these things.  Not the healing loving energy that is Me, the pure love and light of my being, my "soul" if you will. My soul loves its vehicle in this world and is pride filled not prideful.  I am so proud of so many aspects of my life.The ego is fighting back because the more light that fills me , the less room there is for the ego. So I consciously and acknowledging that I am proud of my husband and the life we are creating. I am proud of the love that I am able to spread with the world. I am proud of the amazing supportive family that I have. I am proud of the kind, fun friends that surround me, ect. But I feel that I need to learn to truly be proud of who I am. Oh man even typing it now makes me a little anxious and a million reasons why I shouldn't be proud come to mind. Lately I have really been holding on to the past and who I thought I was then. I haven't always been someone I have been proud of. I suppose that this has been a good inspiration for me to continue growing and change. I look at a lot of people in my life and think " That is the type of person I want to be". Tonight it was pointed out to me that I wouldn't have these people around me or have a great life that I was proud of if I wasn't that type of person. That I am attracted to that  energy and it is attracted to me because we are one and the same. Some thing to be be proud of! I am beautiful, strong, honest, funny, a loving wife, an adoring daughter and sister, a supportive friend and a cousin/niece/granddaughter who will always be there for her family. I woman who is deserving of all life offers, and who wants to share healing light with the wold. I am learning to be proud of those thing and remember that I am attractive to good things to come! 

Peace and Love to all, namaste.

Day 25

Today I am thankful for healing.

           Healing is a universal need for all living things at one point or another. Sometimes we get it, and sometimes sadly we do not. I have been pretty ill for almost a week and I really hate depending on the Dr. or meds in general. I am trying to be very natural in my life. I tried a few homeopathic remedies but they just were not kickin my over abundance of mucus in the butt like I needed them to. So because I am prone to such sicknesses that are dangerous for adults to have I decided to go to the quack. Just kidding, I see Dr. Daniel Sewell who I must say has a great bedside manner and isn't one to just hand you pills. Although this time he did. I am on day two of the Zpack and I am already feeling better. I have 3 more days and I am expecting to be fully recovered by then.

           As much as the pills are helping, there is one homeopathic remedy that is really helping me and I am truly blessed to have. My husband. He has taken such great care of me, and continues to do so. He held my hair and cleaned me up when I vomited for an hour and half and has even worked  couple of my shifts this week. I am not sure how I would have survived without him.

           I have always been very drawn to heeling people. I really love healing people with energy and touch. For a long time I didn't think that I was doing that, or I thought I had to achieve something else or grow in a certain way in order to do this. Recently I have discovered that I am a healing person just by having that intention. I do want to grown in technique and within myself to be able to actually lay my hands on people and heal them. I have a little ways to go, but I am excited about fine tuning my abilities.

Day 22

Day 21 Today I am thankful for fresh starts


        I am really not a resolution kinda gal. I believe that you should always be contentious of what your goals are, how you are going to achieve them and where you are at in that process. Making your life experience better is not some thing I want to focus on only once a year. I do however appreciate that the new year does bring with it a scene of starting fresh, and a refocusing of energy. I am not going to focus on the bad habits I want to stop doing or the food I am not going to allow myself to eat because these things are really not realistic for me. ( kudos to those of you have the will power and focus to change theses things.) Instead for me it is better to focus on the attractive energy field of setting positive goals. This is much easier way for me to stick with it. So 2012 holds in store for me: 

Loving myself

Spreading love and light throughout my world
 

Yoga to help my body be stronger, leaner, and more comfortable in general
 

More veggies and foods that give me energy when I indulge in them
 

Mediation everyday! I am feeling a strong pull to perfect the skill of stillness
 

Growing my business and education as to sever my clients better and make more money

Slowing down, living in the moment, and making time for the moments of fun and joy with people I love

I hope that this year brings everyone blessings and happiness. Let us remember that the energy that we put out to the universe is what we get back, so put out some positivity. Peace and Love to all.
