All change starts with you. You want to see the world in a better place, start with you. You want to see peace on earth, it starts with you. That is how we are all healers. As we do our work and weed out all that is unlike God, we see things differently. As we see things differently, we share differently. We no longer see, “It’s me against the world,” but we see we are all in this together; we are one.
Every time I think I am ready to start talking about the next step of Theresa's Plan to Save the World, something pops up. Yesterday I was told some sad news about someone I have been judging quite a bit over the last few months. It really doesn’t matter what I was thinking and, I'm sad to admit, saying about this person—the only thing that matters is that I was judging.
This is just a little add-on to the last blog since this is a never ending journey. I did not beat myself up, I did have a good laugh at how I was told to have another look. This journey is wonderful! Enjoy! Hopefully, I can finally start the next step.
If we make the choice to start learning to see as God sees, to allow the still small voice to direct our ways, it will lead to happiness, joy, and everything wonderful.
For years, I tried fixing others because I wanted to feel better. I would think, “If they were better, I would feel better.” I would then hear a buzzer go off in my head telling me that iI missed the mark. The mark, I have learned, is not about fixing others—it is about fixing ourselves.
Judgment always involves duality or contrast. So complaints are judgments: “It is too hot. It is too cold.” We also judge the positive, “I think that person does wonderful things.” How do you know that person is doing wonderful things? Do you know their motivation? Maybe they are looking to better their career or to be looked up to. Are they trying to get something? You don’t know, nor do I.
About five days ago, I started the exercise that I suggested last week. I only made it two days. The other three days, I had a complaint from the moment I woke up. So here I am, back at day one. Today I want to share some thoughts of what I have experienced. Maybe it will help you.
