There are many ways to see things
Your perspective determines which and how much you will suffer
The quality of your consciousness is the quality of your life:
We are our thoughts – but more importantly, we must live with the feelings our thoughts create
We’re touching the surface now,
Joseph Campbell told us how:
“All the gods and all the devils and all the heavens and all the hells are within you.”
The gavel is yours, a double-edged sword only you wield
How often a sour eye for the world poisons a whole family’s hope –
Only now you’re an adult, and so must own the world you live in
But unless you accept that you have created the life you have,
You’ll never have the power to create the life you want
Because power is the ability to choose how you respond,
And we have always had it, whether we were consciously aware of it or not
This is no heavy weight; you are not here to “take” responsibility,
You are here to take it back
Because only you giveth and taketh away,
For your entire adult life it’s been that way
But now you’re safe, knowing if you didn’t consciously chooose a response,
Its just a reaction anyway
The patient wisdom of the space between stimulus and response, is your coup de grace,
By which you dead all automatic reactions, seperating danger from fear
So develop control of the avatar (response ability) or allow your body to ride you like a horse unto the grave (reactivity)…
Which will it be?
