The world reflects me.

Good morning! Hi every one!

Watching the news can be horrific, or it can bring us messages about change in our life.

Taken from the headlines....... a new perspective on today's issues.   

When we do not have personal vision, and become complacent, we enter a mind numbing existence. We have no opinions, goals and dreams because we don't know what we believe. Then we look to someone else to save us from our reality...  

When we are in need, and lack sense of self, self esteem, goals and vision, we become prey for those who are skilled at manipulation. They see our (neediness) weakness and they seem to fill it...Sort of....  

When people have no vision, tyrants and dictators take charge.  

Even tyrants and dictators have a purpose, because they show us how easily the weak and needy can be manipulated.  

When have you been weak and needy and under the control of a Dictator? Even if that dictator has been the self?  

They are a mirror, a teacher, and just like any other dysfunctional relationship, they are controlling someone who does not realize they have the power to say no....or are in denial, or have become comfortable in their uncomfortableness.  

In our world, there are many dictators.  

Until we can see that we are oppressed because we gave our power away, the lesson has not been learned; the suffering continues. 

Taking back your power is always harder than setting boundaries in the first place.  

In order to change the world, to a place of peace, it means for us to take back our own personal power, take ownership for our existence.

Set boundaries and speak our truth in love. Pursue goals and dreams.  

Find faith in whatever path speaks to you, spiritually, and personally. When we have all discovered our path and are convicted in it, the dictators of our world and the world will have no one left to bully.

The best way to kill a dictator is by not having anyone for him to dictate to.  

So the mirror of illusion of self asks;

Why are you allowing life to be dictated to you, rather than setting goals, and making your dream a reality? Don't hate the teacher; rather, take responsibility for where you are and go about fixing it.  

Be the change you wish to see in the world.- Ghandi  

Thought for the day......  

Give us clear vision that we may know where to stand and what to stand for- because unless we stand for something we shall fall for anything
