From my personal experience, the painful lessons we move through over and over again can be traced back to our first encounters/experience. It's what we know. Until i looked deeply at a situation, i had not been able to "see" where i was doing something that provided a result that undesirable. Something like "insanity is doing the same thing over and over, but expecting a different outcome".<BR/>when people ask for advice, they seem ready to receive it. from my point of view, many of us are striving for unity within ourselves. we ask others to help us on our journey...to point out the obvious, since we are too close to see it, sometimes. i believe that the response to those queries is to teach the individual to review themselves...to teach them to be able to recognize their patterns. Holding unconditional love for myself and others to move through the steps necessary to witness ourselves as we go through the motions of daily life. <BR/>From my own experience, having awareness of my pattern(s) is the first step. having the willpower to change a pattern that i have been following for over 35 years is another story. <BR/>patience & grace.mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03602749025543254274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15560139.post-1127303613146633982005-09-21T07:53:00.000-04:002005-09-21T07:53:00.000-04:00Take my advice, I'm not using it! -Qalbi.Speaking ...Take my advice, I'm not using it! -Qalbi.<BR/><BR/>Speaking of the outlet, my 9 month old granddaughter, who didn't feel well when I was caring for her on Saturday, kept going to the outlet - but I noticed that she never did it if I wasn't looking... Do we help to set up the situation by giving more or better attention when people head for trouble?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
