Changing Your Mind changes your life.
Renewing and undoing your way of thinking changes your emotions, health, perceptions, relationships.
When we release the old, we make room for the new.
When we let go of what the world teaches, we open ourselves to be taught by Love.
We are born open and willing to learn.
We are taught by the world what those around us believe.
We are imprinted and believe what we are shown and taught and experience.
We live our lives with these same “truths” ingrained in us, until we stop to question and emancipate.
When we learn to be “right”, we become closed, opinionated and judgmental.
When we trust our own beliefs and discredit others, we are limited in our thinking.
With limited thoughts, we have a limited experience.
When we are willing to be “wrong”, we open our minds to other possibilities.
Since there is no “right” or “wrong”, there is only what we perceive to be true.
We each have filters, imprinted beliefs with limited perception, which diminishes our understanding.
Only when we lift the blinders of judgment, need to be right, fear and defensiveness, can we be open.
When we are open to changing our mind, our thoughts and perceptions change.
Thoughts create.
When we resist this and believe that life is what it seems to be, we feel like victims of the world.
When we feel victimized, we act with fear and judgment, defensiveness and need to prove our rightness.
When we behave with righteousness, we attack others and need to make them “wrong” to be “right”.
The conflicts that occur when we argue and fight over who is right and who is wrong are damaging.
When anyone loses, everyone loses.
The fabric of the relationship is damaged as well as the trust, freedom to express and self confidence.
Everyone deserves to be heard and respected. Young and old, rich and poor, educated and ignorant.
To listen to another with a desire to respect them, respond with love, heal with forgiveness is invaluable.
When we want to experience more Love, we need to open to other’s feelings, perceptions and beliefs.
When we want to bring more peace into our lives, we must let go of resistance, defensiveness and pride.
When we want to heal our relationships, we need to forgive our stubbornness, opinions and conflict.
As we are willing to open our minds to other’s way of seeing, choosing and living, we understand more.
As we release the old ways, we discover the ease and safety of letting go and letting Good and God be.
As we recognize how much more there is to see and know, to learn and teach, we are more compassionate.
As we change our minds with more understanding and compassion, we know great inner peace.
And so it is that we realize the gift of undoing what is limited and lacking and belittling.
We understand that we cannot truly know from our own narrow viewpoint.
We recognize that only when we can learn to accept all the differences do we find a Higher answer.
Trust everyone is seeing and believing, living and learning, letting go and hanging onto what is true for them.
Open your mind.
Let go of fear.
Clear the past.
Appreciate right now.
Loving you,
Betty Lue
Those Who Know
To “know” is to “love”. For when we fully know, we have an experience of acceptance, understanding, trust and love.
In working with this list of levels of consciousness, we can easily substitute “love” for “know”. Perhaps, for some, this will simplify and clarify where you are in your own unfoldment process.
· Those who don’t know and don’t know they don’t know.
· Those who don’t know and don’t care.
· Those who don’t know and don’t want to know.
· Those who don’t know and wish they did.
· Those who don’t know and seek to know.
· Those who are coming to know.
· Those who know and are afraid of what they know.
· Those who know and are afraid they don’t.
· Those who know and hold back what they know.
· Those who know and share what they know in order to know.
· Those who know and know they know quietly.
· Those who are what they know.
or with substitution:
· Those who don’t love and don’t know they don’t love.
· Those who don’t love and don’t care.
· Those who don’t love and don’t want to love.
· Those who don’t love and wish they did.
· Those who don’t love and seek to love.
