Learning about Self




Tonight I will speak about learning .....

Not just learning about the many variety of things in life but learning about self.....

Stepping back to watch ... to clearly see yourself and how you behave and how you react to the situation in life.

How many times do we speak when we should have stayed quiet ?

How many times have we taken a leap when we should have stood still?

How many times did we think we saw something that just wasn't there?

Oh there are so many ways that we learn about self... these are just a few ..

The key is to learn how to find that place in yourself where you can stop.. stand still for a moment and really look .. really see clearly .. so that we may not make that leap if it is not needed.. so that we may be able to keep our words quiet until they need to be heard .. and so that we may see things as they are and not how we think they are .. how fear would like us to see them or how we wish they were...

How do we do this? you may ask.... well...................

Take a moment in your day to reflect on what you've done just that day ... maybe earlier that morning .. or just minutes ago..

Reflect on your thoughts as you overheard a conversation and why you felt the way you did about the conversation or for that matter how you felt overhearing it instead of hearing it directly...

Reflect on how you answered the phone or drove your car ...

Reflect on your own actions and feelings and not worry so much about those of others ...

This is how we learn about ourselves.. finding out why we do or feel the things we do


Now that I've given you some food for thought ... have a good night and sweet dreams


Many Blessings,
