When we look at our Personal Truths, they are no different. They are concepts about our life that we have come to accept. How do we know what they are? The spiritual and religious doctrine have done a fair job of presenting the basics: Do not lie, cheat, steal, yearn for what is not yours, be kind, faithful, honest, etc. These motifs have been established to guide one towards a more loving and fruitful life. Yours may be slightly different but they are THE guiding beliefs that shape and mold how you think and act.
When we establish Truths for ourselves, it is important to base those Truths in Love. What I mean is that if my Truth is that I am a victim of every circumstance, then, that is not a truth about life. It is a fear-based idea, which only serves to justify blocking my ability to growth in my life. Now, it may seem as if certain things happen to you based upon this theme. However, since we create our reality, one has actually perpetuated their own victimization, by their suspicion of everyone being out to get them, instead of taking responsibility for their experiences.
Another example, I blogged about back in February (19th – A Warped Perspective) is about a person’s number one rule being that of “Trust No One.” These types of Truths, Rules, Personal Mottos are isolating, negative, restrictive and based entirely upon fear. They serve to hinder, impede, delay and suppress the person from growth in their life. The only Truth being revealed here is individual worry, anxiety, loneliness and FEAR.
So, on that note, the quote of the day is:
“Truths lift us higher through love and are reflected in all that we do and say.” tc
