Vibe Commentary-2/4
Greetings all,
This may be a new point of view to most who read this Blog. My Blog is somewhat different in perspective than few may accept. I am offering a common sense understanding of how I see the Law of Attraction as it relates to the everyday things we all do. When the student is ready, the Teacher will appear.-Buddha
(Apologies for this extended delay. Wanted to get the idea across in a way that could be more easily acceptable.)
Today’s Thought: “People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of their character.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Author’s Take: It is acknowledged that the world doesn’t concern itself with our happiness. Even when aware of this fact, most people still get upset by it.
Complaining only serves to annoy others and contribute to our own worsening mood. “The more we whine & criticize, the smaller we become.” -Linda Picone*
Ending Thought: “Today, instead of complaining about negative things, I will praise positive things.”
—————————————————————
Character, I’ve heard defined as …”Doing the right thing when no one is looking.”
Dictionaries most common definition: “the mental & moral qualities distinctive to an individual”.
Emerson seemed to think that the perspective a person has of the observable “world” reflects the individual’s attributes of personality & worth.
Most will acknowledge that the majority of the world is not out to please us and knowing makes it no easier to accept. Pointing out the things we don’t like is complaining, (true, to a point) annoys others. Fault finding diminishes the Individual, somehow.
Daily appreciation for positive things in exchange for complaining. The negative provides room for the Positive…
—————————————————————
There is, to me; contradiction in the concept of “Character” as accepted by most of society.
On the one hand, having a “Good Character” is a Path of Least Resistance through society as having their “Approval” eases Their collective consciences, if your behavior fits within their Rule structure. A “Bad Character” will put blocks in the path toward success if allowed to sway the mind or determination of the person.
This is perpetuated by the LoA because of the nature of LoA & the Attention to the Judgment directed at a “character defining” moment.
The need to develop a Good Character so as to “Fit-In” and be accepted by others, mostly those in authority or position of influence. The one individual “May” think themselves as confident of being of good character or they might not be as self assured but act in the appropriate manner for the approval of others. Again, LoA is constantly combining the energies of the thought vibrations of either & both individuals.
Because the LoA is constant, unwavering & indiscriminate, those making the determination of “character” will only see or experience the Character they expect of the other. This is, in part, due to the experiences of past interactions.
So IS it important to “Be of Good Character”.??
Is accepting the Judgement of others serving one’s best interest.??
Is needing the Approval of others following the path of least resistance.??
What is Wanted by “having” a Good Character.??
Does it FEEL good to think of behaving in a manner acceptable to others?
Is the perspective or opinion of others more important than feeling good?
These are the questions we all need ask until there’s no need.
We do live in a Peopled world. Time and false premise beliefs have taught people to Judge & be critical of all others. We all do it to some degree. It’s an inherent trait from the earliest social groups. A visual assessment determined whether the person or animal was Safe or a threat. In those days, there were few options. That quick assessment became Judgement that as threats became fewer, the attention was focused on other details of behavior within society’s changing structure. Early groups, clans, Families became the “Ruling class”. Their land holdings bought loyalty in ways likely not much different than done today. Success in battle & Obtaining more land led to thinking that Their way of thinking, acting, dressing & most importantly; how They were treated BY others (judged beneath them). Force was used in most cases & effecting large scale Societal change. As the “Rulers” grew more stronger & became nation-states, expansion was the Order of the Day.!! Soon this became a global project as the British, Dutch & the Portuguese transporting the Jesuits to foreign lands, sailed the world “Conquering” the Heathens, converting them to chrisitanity by threat of death.
During all this(, & it could go on & on & on…) man developed Rules of Society; certain Acceptable behaviors that showed your Worth as a person. In the truest sense, it measured the value of your Life.
What this all means is that people have trained themselves into the “Habit” of judgement & critical complaining by thinking this is the proper way to behave. Additional negative judgment is motivated by complaints. This has become a Belief widely accepted & practiced even by those claiming to be enlightened to the knowing that opinions only have value to the one with the opinion.
LoA does not “care” whether following these “guidelines” of behavior make you feel good or bad, it will only reflect More of whatever thought you follow. The Universe is an eternal “Ocean” of the energy of LOVE that comes to EVERYONE of us through our Connection to Source, through our Inner-Being(I-B). The feeling of LOVE is the natural state of Be-ing Human. Any thought or action that reduces that Feeling is going against the very essence of the Extension of Source Energy that we are.!!
Character with the perspective of Source is always in alignment with the vibrations that Feel Good, that manifest emotions of Joy & Happiness or Satisfaction. We are who we are. Any time another wants Us to act in a manner that Pleases Them, it causes conflict within us. We all want to be pleased. Unfortunately most think or believe that we need Outside conditions to BE happy…”I’ll be happy when…”, not understanding that the thoughts of Not Having the “conditions” only serves to Build More LIKE conditions through the LoA & the Attention to the Thoughts of LACK.!! It’s a perpetual cycle that can only be “broken” by Re-Directing focus to thoughts, conditions, feelings of Appreciation & Joy. Thinking you won’t think about the “thing” that you don’t want to think about IS thinking about it. The subject of attention, your Point of Attraction has to be different & preferably Pleasant in essence.
We have all been exposed to these Rules of Behavior. We all mostly Know what we Like or at least what FEELS good & what Doesn’t.!! We all have the same choices, to please ourselves or another; First.!! And we all Want to Get Along…
As long as we are cajoled into doing what others want, WE won’t be Satisfied. If we find a level of Satisfaction & Joy in “Proper Behavior”, everyone benefits. If you ask: Will “doing this” feel good.? Will NOT doing this make me feel good.?? If your concern is the Opinion of others, ask yourself how that Feels & is that more important than feeling good.!! Think & speak only of the things in Life that you Want.!!
If we all took care of ourselves & didn’t concern ourselves with the Goings On of others (knowing they think/behave the same); if we could all accept the LoA brings into our lives the things we think of; we could go about our Daily experience with Fear, worry or lack as we Co-Create the Joyous world we all want to live in, Eternally.-JMO
Living Life in Joy
Happy Creating!!
