The Complexities of God: Relishing Responsibility

in #life8 years ago

However...

apparently I have some photogenetic similarities...

I didn’t do this on purpose. But apparently, I look kind of like Jesus when you add a unibrow and a goateeDDDF4127-6506-420F-811A-D53D97CAE5F0.jpeg

I had to share, that made me laugh. It is been a difficult road and 2017 was not a very nice year for me. I’m still dealing with the loss of my mother and things keep getting more difficult. Sometimes that is a reminder from the universe though, to keep pushing forward and to persevere. It’s a little things in life, sometimes you just have to take them as they come.

Be the Best Version of You

Sometimes, the best version of you is a distorted image. No one is perfect and no one can be what they want to be all of the time. This is especially true if you take part in a family or community. Both of these things often bring about pain in our lives. A life without suffering is life without growth. Sometimes, the pain that you feel from those around you is a pressure to be better. It doesn’t mean they love you less and it doesn’t mean that you are worthless.

Compassion for Yourself and for Others

Compassion, I read this morning from a tweet by the DAli Lama, Is often overlooked because people related with religion. It made me think. Often people discount the fact that I am religious. Because I was of a goddess or I respect all gods, believing that all paths lead to one source, both my friends and family sometimes forget that at heart I am deeply religious. I read religious texts from all faiths and I feel that inherently the divine is within us all.

You were made in the image of something. I am not talking about the divine image or what God did. I am talking about what you do, every day. The actions that you take on a daily basis or what shape you into what you are. Choices, behaviors, words spoken and even the thoughts in your head affect the outcome of what you create daily.

That is a lot of responsibility!

I love how people think that they are somehow exempt from personal responsibility. I enjoy watching them float along with life getting all triggered and worked up about the world and then they shit on the world that they create. These kinds of people always wonder why and play the role of the victim. I know this because I do this myself sometimes. I think we all joke, don’t we? There’s a time for laughter and there is a time for jokes though. When people are counting on you well you repeatedly let them down, their disappointment is on you. If you can look at them straight in the face and to say that you have truly tried can you turn all that you can.

When someone offers you another solution though, and you don’t try it, then who is responsible? If you choose to live your life simply through your own perspective, who is responsible when life doesn’t work out for you? There’s one responsible for following the advice of others?

Life is Confusing

I can be said that life is frustrating. We can’t always get what we want, but we generally get what we need even if we don’t understand what that need is quite in the moment. The best advice that I have is to be as gentle and kind and yourself as you can. The world is a very hard place. It is designed for the survival of the fittest. Community, forged through compassion, understanding and trials of bliss, is what we have to hold onto.

But being the best version of yourself, you’re giving the best that you can to the world. When you do this know that you were taking your part and healing and helping all of those around you. This is an something to take pride in, to feel better about or to cleanse your own comic pallet. Being a good person mean simply being a good person for the sake of being a good person. Anything else cheapens experience for yourself and those around you.

Just Thinking

These were the thoughts that I woke up with it in my head today. I thought about those people around me that do nothing but try to help and I had a dream about people that appear to be helpful but I’m not. My dreams tell me to be careful about getting close to wolves in sheep’s clothing. How do you know that there are wold until it is too late?

Your Thoughts are Welcome

Feel free to let me know your own thoughts. I don’t mean to sound down the negative. Personally it doesn’t feel negative, but I can see her maybe taking that way. We learn from other peoples perspective and gaining insight from their vantage points. I humbly await yours.

Thanks for reading!
