Empowering, Motivating and Encouraging People!
Seeing each other from the heart.
If we simply learn to control our thoughts then we would satisfy the true desires of our heart! E.B Gibson
Are we all strangers or just friends that we have not met yet? Initial meetings can be quite awkward for a variety of reasons. Perhaps we are shy by nature,or maybe we are just introverted? Regardless of the barriers, the true challenge is in over-coming them. In some cases it just takes time to warm up to people. Getting to know people is just a normal way to eventually make friends. However preconceived ideas or prejudging one another based upon appearances, can act as a blockade to what could have been blessed relationships that can be rewarding beyond anything we can imagine.
Everyone we meet can be either a lesson or a blessing, or perhaps both. However, many times when we repeatedly keep meeting the same type of people, it is usually because we have not been receptive to the lesson(s) that was meant for us..."Joe" had always had a dislike for people from the Middle Est. He said it was because he always seems to have problems with interacting with, as he said, "those people". Was there a part of Joes personality that was responsible for repeatedly drawing the same people that he disliked into his life? The thing that very easily escapes our notice is that for the majority of humankinds history is that we never clearly saw our own image, except from the hazy reflection that was revealed upon water, pehaps while one was washing one self, swimming, etc. The invention of the reflective mirror is relatively new compared to human beings' presence on earth. Before we had mirrors, we saw our selves through each others eyes. And through the eyes of our fellowman we learned about ourselves, and these were our lessons. An eye-witness can some time see things that we miss because at times we can become so lost in ourselves that we require an honest set of eyes to see things clearly.
The spirit of competition, " being better than the next person", in many ways acually inspires differences. This is the society we were born into, "dog eat dog". Tear the other person down to make ourself look good. Many people actually believe, for the sake of survival, that they must destroy the competition. When the "opposing force" is a member of the opposite sex or looks different than you, this in many cases, encourages feelings of separation and hatred for anyone who is in the path of your success, especially those who might look different from you.
True success lies not in being better than the next person but rather in being better than we ourselves were before. When we learn the lessons of "the meeting of everyone", we begin to refine ourselves into our true self. "While the man or woman we are on the outside is wasting away the man or woman we are on the inside is getting better and better every day". The human body go through a constant renewal, and thousands of cells in our bodies are constantly dying off but before each cell die it teaches a new cell to perform its job. The old cells waste away and die ending up as a spec of dust we often see suspended in the air of a room. Yet as the process occurrs, each and every day we interact with our life teachers there we find enrichment of our soul which results in self improvement and transition into the best person we can be. As we do this, something interesting happens. We begin to draw out of ourselves the type of person we really want to be and not the kind of people we dislike.
What is interesting about Joe, mentioned in an earlier paragraph is that he admitts he didn't like himself. But as he began to learn the lessons and accept others for the good potential that everyone has, he too can change the reflection of himeself in their eyes as well as in his own. As you become happier with your new self or renewed personality, others around you with like manner of spirit are drawn to you.
Seeing others from the heart. Seeing them for their potential and seeing our selves through their eyes.The Circle of Love is dedicated to helping mankind see his fellowman in a true spirit of brotherhood ,We have members from as far away as Demark and Pakistan,Could you extend a olive branch and invite friend,family members,co-workers or any one who just needs or wants to experience unconditional love to join our humble circle its free and the rewards are endless.
