Hello out there all my little peeps! It is the beginning of a new week and magic is in the air. Thanksgiving will soon be upon us and the most wonderful time of the year is right after that. The Winter Holidays!!!! Christmas for some....Hanukkah for others....Kwanza for others.....and Ramadan for others still. It seems that people finally get it all together during the Winter Holidays and actually wish for Peace, Harmony and Good Will toward all. Even the Scrooges of the world lighten up a bit during this time of year.
That got Gommy to thinking why this warm and fuzzy feeling isn't prolonged, nurtured and kept going, to stay in our consciousness all year. And why do some people find it easier to live and let live....not be as hateful....find it unpleasant to constantly stir the proverbial pot of discontent....and on and on and on, while others seem to enjoy being miserable and hateful? Gommy says seems to because no one could really like being hateful. It is a terrible way to live.
After hearing repeated statements lately, such as: each person has a destiny, that light and love are the way to happiness, that each person who crosses your/our path is meant to teach us lessons, and that we are all one... it got Goms to thinking of people in my own life and about their personalities,....of my own trials, tribulations and blessings.... and the reasons why we all act as we do. The main question Gommy has, is why is it easy for some and not so easy for others to be happy in their own life?
One reason may be that the ones who are having the hardest time and act the harshest, do so because they are very stubborn in their way of thinking. They can see only black and white and they seem to choose to believe the very worst of a group of people, or of their own circumstances, and about life in general. These people are very unhappy and don't have a very good feeling about themselves. They aren't happy unless they are stirring the pot of life. They feel they have to be the conductor, the lead person, the be-all/end-all in charge person that is the only one who could possibly know, 'for sure', how everything should run. If anything gets out of their control....watch out. They erupt very easily and make everyone around them very uncomfortable. But that is just their 'tool' to keep everyone in line. Just like the lion-tamer in the circus. The lion or tigers could easily take out the little old lion tamer at any time.....but the tamer cracks that whip as if that would really save his butt if the massive feral animals wanted to charge at him.
The 'tamer' is very delusional. He thinks that everyone is paying close attention to him because he/she is sooooo very interesting and admired. Wrong Mr/Ms Tamer. You are acting a fool and everyone but you seems to be in on the joke. But you have to keep up the facade because if you lay your whip down or quit your loud bellowing.....everyone may decide to charge at you and you will be seen for the fraud that you are.
Then the thought came to Goms..."Why do we even need these abrasive people in the world, that we seem to come into contact with all the time?". Maybe it is to 'awaken' the rest of us to the realization that they are just making a bunch of noise and they really have no power and our job is actually to help them 'awaken' to a better way of feeling. Just as you would calm a crying child who is afraid....we can help those bullies to see they are loved as well. That is really all they want. They could also be put in our path to mirror some behavior we may be exhibiting and need to change...quickly!!!! When they/we see that being kind, loving and having a genuine care for all really does feel better.... then perhaps they/we may just change their/our hateful, bigoted or ____ (just fill in the blank here) ways.
If you feel you can't do anything about these sorts of people.....ask/pray for guidance in this journey. Know that this may be your mission....to help these people to feel less afraid. Wouldn't it be wonderful to know that you somehow helped someone else be more loving....to have the feeling that everyone else feels during the Winter Holiday Season? How great would it be to be able to sustain these glorious wishes for goodwill, for the entire year.....or years on end?
Something is happening in the world lately. We see more and more people who are searching for peace, love and harmony. This latest awareness recently came in the suggestion that we all stop for 11 seconds on 11/11/10 at 11:11 am and 11:11pm.... and for 11 days after at that time..... and think of beautiful thoughts projecting out into the Universe. To send out loving wishes to all mankind. It has been proven that our attitudes and thoughts are contagious....so wouldn't it be great if a nicer thought pattern was 'caught' by everyone? So, every time you notice the numbers 11-11 or 22-22 or 33-33 etc. take this as a gentle reminder of how we can promote a greater awareness of a loving nature and that it may just be possible that it could be guidance from God.... that this is sort of a wake-up call to be a gentler 'us' and to be more accepting of our fellow humans and a reminder that we can be of greater use while we are on our life journey. You will find that the more you keep this in mind....the more frequently you will notice these numbers come up in your daily experience. You will feel you are having an inner calling that you cannot ignore any longer. It is a much more rewarding feeling than to be defiling our fellow human beings. Be willing to move beyond the fear.... and love those spanning across all cultures. This IS God's plan for us on Earth and beyond. In God's name....honor and accept His Divine Heritage for us. Blessings abound.....just stop to notice them.
This is the perfect time to start making the attitude adjustments. Thanksgiving is all about what we are grateful for....so amp it up a bit peeps. Don't just give it 'lip-service'....BE thankful and act nice! Since we were all made in the likeness of God....it should be easy to accept that we were meant to be all loving and to help others to be all loving as well. We can make this a better world....it only takes each of us changing our thoughts to positive, loving thoughts.....one person at a time. You can do it boys and girls. Gommy is pulling for ya'....Hugs & Mush, Gommy
