8/27/2021 Butt Park

  

    Today I talked to God. I said what are you doing to me. I was sitting in a hallway.  I would get up and down. I went to sit down backing up to the chair. I slipped off but didn't go down. Half hour later the same thing backing into chair, I go off the side of chair and hit the ground. Didn't  get hurt. Two times in a half hour. That's  how God talks to me. He doubles the experience in a short period of time. Look where you park your butt. I wasn't  focused on the present moment. The present moment is where we live,  always. Another reminder.  Have to be constantly aware of out thoughts in any given moment otherwise you will miss the mark like I did and find yourself looking up from the floor.

    There is always something to be thankfull  for. The fact I didn't  get hurt. So several months ago a woman  did the same thing she backed her suv into a parking space.  There was construction to the rear of the parking lot and there was a drop off. She forgot and took a step back from the rear of  the suv door.  Down she went and broke her arm she thought. Stop look and listen  always, or you may find yourself in an emergency room one of these days.

8/26/2021 We R are our Choices

 

    Each and every day we have decisions to make.  What were going to eat, what clothes to wear, errands that need doing and how to treat others. We become our choices. With choice you can change direction on a dime. The road you selected initially  can end right now. You can go off in a totally  different  direction.  You can change your attitude toward a negative event, which will make it better for you.  In these past blogs I showed you how you can make these beneficial  changes.  You are the director of your own life.  If you desire something, you have to make a plan in how to attain it.  A note pad will keep you focused on what you can do to make it happen. Time will have to be expended on it.  All the while thinking I will get to the goal.  Set up mini goals on your way to the big goal, put a time limit on the mini goals. Work hard on these mini goals.  Look over them on a daily basis. Did you attain it?  If you didn't , write down what stopped you from getting it.  Hit a dead end?  Then ask spirit to help you around the blockage. To see if this works select a small final goal and go after it. When you get it, write it down how long it took you to get it. Once you do it you will have your  confidence  built up.  It only gets better  here on out.

    

    When you are going after your goals, keep a record of your successes and failures.  Alot can be learned by our failures.  You have to reflect on the failures, a lot of good stuff is found here. The harder the fall or fail the greater the potential growth for you.  Own your mistakes, don't  blame others.  Regroup push onward.  Say you spent months working on a project and it falls apart.  Don't  panic, look at it from all angles and see where you can do better. If you believe in the goal  do not give up.

     I spent 5 yrs going to a chiopracter. I go in crooked and come out walking straight. After the 5th yr I said wait a minute. I'm  going to have to do something to fix myself. I started with exercises that weren't  tuff on the back. By the 7th yr, I was better and didn't  need the chiopracter anymore. When I first got hurt with the back, my first thought was I will get better. There was no doubt in my mind.   It took 7 yrs to get back to the way I was. If I would have did the exercises quicker maybe it would have been 3 yrs instead of 7. You have to have the belief first then do the work to make it happen.

    Focus on your goals and don't  let anyone talk you out of it. Just make sure your actions aren't  hurting anyone. Be careful  with your choices. Record all lessons good and bad. 

8/18/2021 Afghanistan

 

     The country that gave safe haven to Al- Quaeda. From which they plotted the 9/11 attacks  on US.  The government was removed by US maneuvers.  The US  botched their stay there due to no good plan on how to turn around the Afghan people.  The afghans got a gift what a democracy  could do for them.  Number 1 was giving them a taste of freedom but it wasn't enough. When the chips were on the line, they compitulated mostly without a fight.  A US skeleton force could have kept the status quo.  Just to keep the taliban locked up near the mountains . Keep the elections legit and let them figure out the rest. No nation building. Give them guidance and that would of been that.

    The US helped  with the rebuilding of Europe after the war as well as the Phillipines  and Japan. After the Korean War we fixed up south Korea.  We could of did the same for Afghanistan. It would just have taken longer. You teach the kids in grade school to be a better them. After 3 generations you will have a more understanding generation able to face their destiny  with way less violence.

    We have to stick together as a nation to protect the world from another hell on Earth. Germany and it's  allies tried to do this back in 1939 . It was a very strong US that was able to stop it. We did it because we stayed together after the Civil  War.

    Be a deep thinker. Look outside the box.

8/16/2021 When the Wolf is at the Door

 

     The first response should be Why.  How come this is happening to me?  Stand in front of the mirror,  there's  your answer.  Our poor choices have landed us in this predicament.  All is not lost however.  That is if we can learn from our failures. You can say I didn't  see it coming ( covid for example ) .  What should of happened was that you should have savings that can carry you through a drought.  I'm totally  guilty in this department. Total failure on my part.  It is not pleasant.   Money is necessary to have a better life.  It's  like air or water you take it for granted but then comes a day when it's  supply is limited.  Like say a lung problem or like in California where there are water shortages. A lot of towns in California  are in trouble of going under because of lack of water.  We have to prepare for the worst and plan better when it comes to having a better future life.  To get to that life were going to have to work hard at it.  Say if  I do this will it benefit me in the future.  If  I'm not making enough money maybe I should find another place to work.

    Evaluation.  Look at your goals at end of month and see if the money your making  is going to get you were you want to be.  If not, changes are in order.  Say you've  been at your job awhile, look at the lessons you're  been given here.  There are many lessons to be had at that job,  one of them being how you relate to others.  By keeping a journal you can chart your progress on being a better human being. Spirit is the force that brings these people into your life.  What you see in them is what exists in you. When a big problem comes into your life, try to break it down in little sections. Work on the one section until you have a satisfactory result. Then it's on to the next section. Like eating an elephant one bite at a time.

    Stuff, you either own it or it owns you. Once you take possession  of it you got to make a place to store it. If it breaks you got to fix it. With me it was books. I had to move so I packed them all up. Conclusion  books are heavy. Next time I had to move I got rid of 70 % of them. Life is maintenance,  cars break down as well as houses and your own body.  Everything costs. You have to get to a place where you can pay for the upkeep. You have to have differing irons in the fire. Keep and eye on where you want to be and make a deadline to go along with it. You tell yourself,  I will get the through  this with spirits help. Every day give yourself that needed pep talk. When you master this predicament,  the wolves will disappear from your life.

8/10/2021 People are Who They Are

 

     Accept them for who they are.  Or  don't , it's  your choice. You can change them a little bit but it's  mostly  wheather  they want to.  It has to benefit them. 

    Say you want to be part of a group.  As you hang with them you notice  some of them are not being very nice to you. Do you let it slide or do you take it as a warning.  Think about it for a good long time. Am I up to putting up with this crap for my future experiences.  Or is it time to move on down the road.

    If you want to know someone, you have to be with them for some time.  Pay attention to how they treat others.  That is a big tell. How they treat others will be visited upon you sometime in the future.  When you find yourself making excuses for their behaviors you are entering a dangerous space. Now is the time to take a step back and really think about your actions.  Don't  worry if you slam the door shut God  will open up another maybe not right away but soon.  Keep an eye out for future opportunities. What you just did was tell the universe no thankyou  to that last relationship.  I deserve better.  That last relationship hopefully taught you something about yourself.  It's  about you and learning  more about you. You are trying to be a more happier and better person than you were  before.

    Self introspection  is the way to become more knowledgeable  about yourself.  Getting mad is ok to blow off steam but do it in private. Getting mad does not fix anything,  it makes it worse. Help is blocked when your mad. To get a good answer be at peace and have a good humor. Being positive can help in all aspects of your life. Be kind to yourself and then to others.  To drive a train you need an engineer.  You are the engineer of your body. You can stop at any given moment and change direction. This is your life! If you don't  like it. Then change it. If you need help you call on spirit for help. It may help you with a book, somebody tells you something,  a tv show or something of that order. Just trust that where  you are now heading will be beneficial to you. At first it maybe Tuff very Tuff but things over time will get better. Keep and open mind and work hard to get to that new desired place of yours. And once again keep a journal and date it.

8/06/2021 To be a Victim or Not

 

    This is a question that needs an answer. The answer is either a yes or a no. To be a victim is agreeing that you have no power over the situation. First you have to see that you have a problem. Once you can see it, then you can fix it. When you blame others for your problems you are being a slacker.  Basically it comes down to 3 words, I am Responsible period.  Look in the mirror in the morning and repeat those words. I am worthy. I am loved by God. I can fix my problems by myself or an assist by spirit.  Do this mirror exercise every day. This will get you out of a  big rut that you put yourself in.  By doing nothing that rut will get deeper making it harder to see out of it. Once your energy is saved you can direct that energy to a more beneficial life for your self. People that keep you down or upset,  well just cross them off your list.  If you can't  get rid of them totally, then limit your time with them.  Don't  be nasty to them be civil, use kind words. If they direct unkind words to you reply with kind words no matter what.  Why waste your energy arguing or trying to get them to see your way. So not worth it. Use that time to get what you want in your life,,  put the energy there and go for your Dreams. Move on and enjoy your new  better life.
