Karma is from pre Hindu beliefs of a Continuing Consciousness carried forward to the Next life. Actions taken Then needed to be Rectified in the current life… That’s a quaint, romantic idea that shifts accountability to an etheric non entity for the blame…
Unfortunately, universal laws, physics & new understanding of the Universal Energy and the nature of matter; suggest that once the Physical body croaks, what most might call the Soul, which is Energy, is released back into the All(Source) of which we are all extensions, expressing life NOW in this Time/Space reality as Be-ings Human. Flora & Fauna in their respective cycles as well.
That said, Karma is like thinking that an very old, gnarled Oak tree has a good “Previous Existence” as… “lumber for a castle or Church, so it got to live a long healthy, carefree existence ” this time”.!!
When you understand that possibly, some of the consciousness that comprises Your ME consciousness last time is Party of the Tree’s consciousness’ energy in this Time slot…
We may see Instant Karma but that’s just the Law of Attraction working as it should… JMO
All care is Self-care…All the time.!! If someone else is “caring” for you, then that’s just CARE. Everything that everyone does (in any sense) is from believing they will Feel Better in the “Having”… of whatever the doing was about. There are those who will Criticize those who care for themselves, calling it Selfish. Without SELF(ish)Care for one’s self, they/we would have nothing to offer others & sympathizing only gives them more of what they already have…
What’s the first impression you want to give people?
Having been a Direct Sales professional for a long time, I’ve had many directives concerning influencing others toward agreement. Regarding today’s prompt, the most lasting was: “You never get a second chance to make a First Impression”. That is true enough, however; Keep in mind that influence is always directed toward Others & those impressions are based on the judgements steeped in past Beliefs, both religious and societal.
We all do it regardless of any denials of judgment. It can’t be helped. We all want to be looked at with kindness & warmth but then we judge those judging Us. We also are forming judgements & making 1st Impression assessments, then we judge ourselves in comparison to that impression. We judge because we want others to be different than they Are, to be more like Us…
So, the real question should be not what impression we want to Project but what Impressions do we Perceive of others. It has long been ondrstood that most of the faults we see in others are the those we have ourselves & we project them toward Others in order to Feel better about ourselves…This comes from the judgements we were taught to Believe.!! The beliefs we hold, whether they serve us or not; color our Impressions of the physical world we observe including ourselves. The Law of Attraction keeps the momentum of the thoughts that come from our beliefs. Remember that a Belief is a Habit of Thought that is constantly Reinforced; a thought you Keep thinking. If you change what you believe, what you experience will also change, including your impressions; of yourself & that of others.

Invent a holiday! Explain how and why everyone should celebrate.
A holiday is defined as a period taken Away from work. Derived from religious observation of special days, holydays; for a variety of reasons to give added attention to some rite or ritual.
Consider, however; the concept & consequence of Taking Off from the one thing that provides your income to participate in some celebration not All believe. Most holidays are Governmentally imposed, requiring business to cease their only function, work.!! A good many are religious, gov’t approved “days off” & most are not compensated for the time lost & loss of production. The exception being the 7 Main paid holidays…
These days are in memory of Past events, most beyond that of any living today. Some are downright nonsensical (example: Columbus Day; celebrating a series of mistakes & outright misinformation{some say Lies}…), others have been combined, thereby Devaluing the accomplishments of those Being celebrated( presidents Day…).
If we look at the time frame of annual Holidaze, they are spaced so as to provide sufficient time to acquire the Funds to participate in the Next one, while taking additional income in the form of lost wages. This is in combination with the “school/vacation seasons”which are designed to require spending instead of Saving. This accomplishes 2 things, to reduce the amount of available funds to insure security & more maliciously; to create the Mindset of (degrees of) Poverty.
This is a Vibrational, Attraction based Universe where we create our Own reality with the Thoughts & Emotional vibrations we offer at every moment. The Law of Attraction (LoA) is: “That which is likened unto itself, is drawn.”, which means that Like Energies, Vibrations, Thoughts/Emotions-(they’re all the Same), come together by the amount of Attention it receives.
In this instance, focus on the Not Enough of the money, both needed AND Wanted which only perpetuates the lack of money & it’s procurement. You get what you (think) Focus on, Wanted &/or UnWanted. Since the perceived “loss” or Lack of money evokes a stronger Emotional value, it creates a stronger Attraction of the Momentum of LoA; i.e.-it’s believed easier, with less Resistance multiplying the Effect of creation; Creating more of the Less or Lack of wanted(more money)… Adding to this is the assumed, taught principle that money & those with More of it, are in the wrong; adding to the resistance of getting the more that most everyone Wants. The cycle goes around & around…
If there should or could be any deserved Holiday, I think it would be Dollar (or any monetary value used) Days, celebrating growth & Prosperity for all without persecution or prejudice. Appreciation for those who have prospered AND those Prospering. Activities could include additionally reduced prices, Free goods or Services (limited to prevent loss to those providing…), bonus Pay for the day & Tax Free purchases & Income. Just a thought…
So spend to your hearts content, there’s plenty to go around; without concern over the spending, have Fun & enjoy the joy of others.!! – JMO
If you had to give up one word that you use regularly, what would it be?
As a student & teacher, a professional salesman & an avid receptor of knowledge; there’s not One word…
In English (my main form of articulation), I have learned to use language as a form of communication, influence & Control. However, I have come to question the uses of words that have been altered in scope & meaning; to serve those purposes.
**In This a Vibrational, Attraction based Universe where we create our Own reality with the Thought & Emotional vibrations we offer at every moment. {The Law of Attraction (LoA) is: “That which is likened unto itself, is drawn.”, which means that Like Energies, Vibrations, Thoughts/Emotions-(they’re all the Same)} Words draw the picture of the current What-Is that comes together by the amount of Attention they receive.!! Words, coming from the preceding vibration of thought; affect the perjection most have of what is Percieved as Reality.
Given that understanding, I have decided to no longer use words that Manipulate that perception. The most used word, I feel; is “CAN’T”. Not because of any negative connotation but because it was “Made Up” to justify or excuse true desire or satisfaction.
In the above explaination (**) is the implication of it’s Opposite because we CAN be, do or have-Anything. To me, “can’t” means; “I don’t Want to…”. Choose any subject where that word might be spoken & give it the consideration from This perspective. In the same Sense Datum, the word “TRY” functions in a similar manner. We either Do or Don’t; failing or succeeding but none the less, continuing in the effort. In “Try”ing to Sit Down, you either Sit or Not…
Additionally, the RESPECT is highly misused. Originating from Latin & Ole English, to “Look Back or Regard…”. Now used as a requirement for the approbation of another; i.e.- One’s desire of another to act/perform in a manner that They approve of in order to believe they’ll feel better or to subgegate another’s perspective.!!-JMO

Blogging was never something I considered worthwhile as I believed it was/is just folk either complaining or asserting their opinions on others with no dialog, to & fro. To a degree, I still think that.!! Now it seems the response “Comments” have become that instead. Given that perception & My perspective, I understand that people will not accept information that is not within their own belief structure. (“You can lead a horse to water…) On the “upside” ; should one choose to read the commentaries of the Blog, you CAN’T UnLearn information once ingested… thankfully.!!
This is a Vibrational, Attraction based Universe where we create our Own reality with the Thoughts & Emotional vibrations we offer at every moment. The Law of Attraction (LoA) is: “That which is likened unto itself, is drawn.”, which means that Like Energies, Vibrations, Thoughts/Emotions-(they’re all the Same), come together by the amount of Attention it receives.
One can not Create in another’s experience, regardless of the amount of effort or influence. However, the Very concept of Blogging IS to convince others of one’s ideas, perceptions and/or Beliefs. Yes, me too.
Most beliefs are steeped in religious rhetoric , age old traditions & (other) superstitions; and All are deeply engrained from early on.
My desire, the reason I Blog is Not to change beliefs but to possibly to Enhance them by providing a different perspective to those wanting clarity to their thoughts & emotions When they are ready to accept new answers.
Remember that a Belief is a Habit of Thought that is constantly Reinforced; a thought you Keep thinking. We all have a Belief & an Emotional response to EVERYTHING, literally Everything. Our emotions are the result, the 1st manifestation; of our thought of what we Observe, in that Moment.!! Life happens, is in the Now. We can’t alter the Past; except maybe in our dreams & we have no control of the Future. ALL we have is Now but when we desire & create… next; Wanted,or Unwanted, we are literally creating the Future. -JMO

Here is an interesting perception from today’s Promt. After reading most of the “other responses”, it seems that most (based on the per-capita of replies) have the Misconception of the term and/or it’s meaning…
Per the Online Dictionary I use for definitions, the Root word Excite means to Arouse or Cause; a variety of responses from Emotions (more in a Min) to the movement of Molecules or even Atoms within the Physical realm. This was 1st recorded in the Mid 14th century.!! A little more than a millenia ago but who’s meaning is vastly changed, as is most of our Language.!!
Let’s start at the begining; This is a Vibrational, Attraction based Universe where we create our Own reality with the Thoughts & Emotional vibrations we offer at every moment. The Law of Attraction (LoA) is: “That which is likened unto itself, is drawn.”, which means that Like Energies, Vibrations, Thoughts/Emotions-(they’re all the Same), come together by the amount of Attention it receives.
At the very core of this statement is that No Thingsexcite us, as individuals or collectively. We become excited because of the Emotional response to the Thought or Belief we have of what we are Observing in the Moment.!!(collectively AND as Individuals). This IS how we Create our reality. We all have an Emotional response to EVERYTHING, literally. Based on what we learned in the course of our (life) experience, we developed Beliefs that we allow to guiide our ReActions to the current What-Is. Remember that a Belief is a Habit of Thought that is constantly Reinforced; a thought you Keep thinking. Law of Attraction(LoA) perpetuates the Vibrational Energies/Thoughts/Feelings by continually adding to that Momentum created by the Attention given to whatever is the topic in That Moment. THAT is your Point of Attraction!! In the sense of You Get What You Think About, it’s all about Focus or the focus you hold with Emotion.!!
That being said, the Things that Excite you(r emotions) are the those that stimulate a Belief-Thought you repeat(mostly UnKnowingly) while Observing…Life. This applies to that which you Enjoy AND do Not enjoy. The Degree of your belief excites the Level of you Emotion which is Why UnWanted (or DisLiked) has a Stronger presense(look closely at That word) than what we truly desire. With practice, you can have more control of what you Attract/Create.!!
When you are Next excited…look to what your belief of it is & Why it stimulates your Thought-Emotions.
The Last “thing” I was excited about was today’s Prompt & my dog. ;).-JMO

This is a wonderful & worthwhile Prompt… also it’s a matter of perspective.
This is a Vibrational, Attraction based Universe where we create our Own reality with the Thoughts & Emotional vibrations we offer at every moment. The Law of Attraction (LoA) is: “That which is likened unto itself, is drawn.”, which means that Like Energies, Vibrations, Thoughts/Emotions(they’re all the Same), come together by the amount of Attention it receives.
Each thought IS your Point of Attraction(PoA) to which LoA responds by drawing more of the same Sort of energy together.
The reality we each experience is uniquely or Own. Even though we interact with others, who may participate as do other Actors in a play; we Play our part. THAT is Our reality in the moment, Now.!!
When we go “off script” , we create an Alternate reality. This can be as simple as Daydreaming, fantasizing , scripting (really fun) or imagining a completely different life experience.
We do this everyday, or should. It’s called “Child’s Play” for a reason. Watch the very young at play, provide them a set of toys & put yourself in Their alternate reality/world for as long as you can; them ask yourself, Which reality is the Alternate…& Which would you prefer to maintain.-JMO
Feel free to follow my commentary at Universal Life Paths for more clarity or just for Fun.
In the days when tribes, clans or families attacked & fought one another for dominance of food resources, theGatherers ranged further & further to; thereby expanding to all the surrounding Land. Thus the development of Territories & King, Duke, & Fief – Doms.!!
In theory & concept, freedom seems to mean living in a “state” Ruled by Free. If Free Dom was here 1st, accepting the Rules of others, solely based on Strength & Numbers is surrendering your province of Free for the will of Another.
We have always been free & didn’t need a Dom…
(ORIGIN OF DOM: First recorded from 1710–20; shortened from Latin dominus “lord, master”)
…to tell us we were free. Acceptance of another’s Dom inion is using your Freedom to choose one perspective, mainly your own; for another’s. In the physical sense, man as whole; has not been FREE in a long time…
This is a Vibrational, Attraction based Universe where we create our Own reality with the Thoughts & Emotional vibrations we offer at every moment. The Law of Attraction (LoA) is: “That which is likened unto itself, is drawn.”, which means that Like Energies, Vibrations, Thoughts(they’re all the Same), come together by the amount of Attention it receives.
The amount of attention one gives to any topic depends on the Belief about the subject, in That moment, Wanted or Unwanted.!! A Belief is a Habit of Thought that is constantly Reinforced; a thought you Keep thinking.
If you focus on Freedom, ideas, conversations, flags or other associated paraphernalia Begin to appear in your experience. If your belief of freedom is an unpleasant association, evidence of Everything of what is Wrong with it shows up…
The predicament with Fighting for Freedom is you have to Fight to keep it. That made sense, was necessary when we had enemies only a few DAYS WALK Away. Surveillance was any domesticated animal & security was a wall & a fire. However, since the 19th century, there has been no need to maintain what was Won.!! But if you “poke the bear”, the bear might Poke back… and then Who’s Right becomes more important, Dom-inant than being happy & feeling Good.
The only true Freedom we have left is within Ourselves. In that, we are SO free, we can choose Bondage.
Our most important purpose here IS to create. We can only create from desire, from Wanting. We create everything from some perspective of the only One emotion; LOVE.!! Creation Expands the Universe, the Universal consciousness of Source & all We are.-JMO
