Just come to my Inbox to get a "trigger" kind of email from one of the women I work with in the UK... Doing my best to calm down with music, my healing balcony (it's 6 am on Sunday morning), looking at my trees and flowers and hearing the birds!
And I thought I'd write to you all... that always helps me. To know I can vent if I need to, or need a virtual hug, or the comfort of knowing that someone is listening to me...! And the comfort of knowing that you understand.
So, here is what I propose this morning: Just like Gandhiji preached against the three sins of Speak No Evil, Hear No Evil, Think No Evil, I believe that if we can throw away from our mind and heart the three sins of Judgement, Expectations and Excuses... we'd all be one step closer to divinity!
Judgement is the first deadly sin. Who are we to judge anyone? We are not a judge or God. These are the only two people who should be allowed to judge! A judge in the living world and God in the non living world.
Expectations is the second deadly sin. We have expectations from everyone, and when they cannot meet our needs, we pout, get sad, angry or depressed. Why have expectations from anyone? Leave this sin outside the door when you take off your shoes and enter the temple of spirituality. There's so space for you both in here!
Excuses is the third, and least deadly sin. This one is just an irritating one... and will prevent you from character purification and character building. If someone gives you a time, like please come to this meeting at 10 am, do you find you're always rushing, late, and then rush in breathing excuses? Hello?! Have you not heard the rude saying my American husband introduced me to years ago, excuses are like ***holes, everyone has one! I have no patience for excuses any more. If anyone gives me excuses, I just smile politely till they're done vomitting the bile from their system, smile, clap or shake my palms to cleanse the air, and carry on as if no one said anything! It's the best way not to feed energy to excuses.So, my proposition to you all is this: just for one week, try not to indulge in these three deadly sins... and be aware of how you feel. How's your heart feeling? And your mind? And energy levels, do you get more done or less?
I know in my case, when 2 years ago, I fell down to point zero, and in my heart and mind, removed any expectations from my parents, from my therapist, etc., for my healing, things have been moving at quantum leaps.
And this morning, as I have flown into a rage with some work related issue, I finally am adding expectations and judgement to that litany:
Judgement, Expectations and Excuses are like ***holes: Everyone Has Them!!
What do you think and know and feel about judgements, expectations and excuses?
Love, and With One Heart,
JSpirit
