If you are reading my blogs and posts, you most likely have grasped the fact that the wonderful quality of a positive mind has changed many people’s lives. More and more individuals have come to the realization that negativity begets more negativity. They have seen the effects a more positive outlook has on their immediate world. Every day, in this Earthly life, there are ups and downs, deep emotional valleys, and steep mountains to overcome. Our lives do not have to be so unpleasant and painful. We actually have the power to change and heal from within.
 
However, we are only at the beginning of this understanding of Truth. We still veer off the path we travel at times and we continue to make lesser choices. Not because we are bad, but because we don’t know any better. Nevertheless, the time has come that we cannot use this excuse any more. It is time to grow and unfold to a more spiritual level of awareness.
 
I can assure you, there is a higher level available and obtainable to our thought process, a view that allows us to keep moving upward in the scale of being. It is called Right Thinking; or thinking according to Universal Law.
 
My personal, ultimate goal is to reach perfect Understanding of the Allness of Good, which already exists within each and every one of us. I sincerely hope you will take this thought process and benefit from it as I have done over many years. Whatever your goals in life are, I wish you the best in your endeavors. May the ever-present Almighty Power guide and protect you.

“Finding Fault is finding trouble.”
William W. Walter

The above comment coined by W. W. Walter has stuck with me through the years. Why is it that we constantly find something that is not exactly to our liking? People are not behaving the way we expect them to and all in all things are just not the way we would like them to be. We tend to blame circumstances or accuse people of all kinds of faults. Once we are getting sucked into the vortex of negativity, trouble is closely lurking around the corner. Nevertheless, we continue to look deeper and deeper into the faults of others instead of keeping our focus on self. By now, trouble is staring us in the face, but it seems that when we find faults in other people we don’t feel so bad about our own, or do we?

Our work is to stop finding fault in others, because when we do this “fault finding”, we are giving power to negativity. We see others as incomplete and less than good. The truth is that the errors of others aren’t our affairs and frankly, they are none of our business. We shouldn’t concern ourselves with someone else’s mistake, unless, someone asks our opinion. Then we can be helpful, thoughtful, and constructive, but not critical or hurtful. Remember, the other is also in a state of unfoldment relative to his or her understanding. Our only duty is to be kind and supportive.

In our daily mental work, striving to correct ourselves, we need to address all of our habits. Good or bad, we need to look at them honestly. Then we can correct within self and stay busy with our own unfoldment. Let us find the good, not fault – let us celebrate this everlasting goodness within!

The question I’m asking today has nothing to do with the freedom of nations, but purely with our own personal freedom and who we desire to be. Are you satisfied with how you allow yourself to express yourself? Or are you looking for people’s approval, maybe you think you can’t always voice your opinion and therefore adjust to the environment you’re in?

I understand that most individuals have to work in a workplace full of other people and personalities, and maybe feel that it restricts their personal freedom in many ways. I also have seen family members bite their tongue to not offend a loved one, even though they wanted to speak their peace. Is there a way out?

My sense of freedom has changed over the years. I have promised myself not to do anything I don’t want to do, not to join anyone in a cause just because they want me to, I don’t march with a group of supporters just to fit into society. I also have an honest relationship with my friends; they know that I expect my life to flow easily, comfortably, and conveniently.

But most of all, freedom means to me that I can be who I truly am without restrictions. Of course in a good sense, I wouldn’t abuse this privilege. It signifies that I can express myself honestly, that I can live the life I choose to the best of my ability, and that I do not have to adhere to social by-laws and rules, as long as I contribute to the goodness of all. My freedom is my responsibility to appreciate, enjoy life, and respect all living beings.
My freedom is my spiritual connection to the Almighty Power, which in turn allows all of the above to happen.
