Aaaah Perceptions

Isn't it funny that 10 people can all witness the same exact experience, but each will describe it completely differently? This is because each and everyone of us interpret the world through our own lens of perception. This lens, of course, is based on our own life experiences. The education we received, the kind of discipline we were given, the religious (or not) experiences we had, the type of friends we associated with, the places we traveled, the values which were instilled in us, our beliefs, the parents, teachers, peers we had--- all are a part of the person we have become. Each has played, and continues to play, a part of the person we are today. Unless and until we are able to step outside of our ego selves, and recognize this-- until we are able to question the beliefs we have, the ideas we hold dear, we may never live the lives we were meant to live--- abundant, joyful, loving and connected-- the expression of Spirit as this form.

When we are not awake, aware, conscious of this, we live our lives-- many times-- in judgment, victim mentality, or worse, entitlement. Once we begin to raise our level of awareness, we come to understand and accept that each and every one of us is truly the same-- because indeed we are one. We come from the same seed of creation. We can come to a new place of realizing that we are WAY MORE than our experiences or beliefs. We are a spark of the Divine, made into this human form to evolve into a greater understanding of our own responsibility in the lives we create and the roles we play in the global community of humankind. When we can say that our perceptional differences really make no difference at all; that we can still act in compassion, love, kindness and generosity; when we come to this place of truth and understanding-- then we will have created heaven here on earth. I commit today to continuing this path of exploration, personal work and conscious evolution to bring forth to the universe more of the Truth of who I am. Today, I recognize my connection to all life and I commit to live and act in love. Are you ready to join me?
