Anchors In Life

Anchor Weights In Life:

 

    When you hear the word weight, most if not all, know and understand just what a weight entails. There’re many types of weights in life. Some people use weights to ensure they are gaining the right amount of use out of them. When weights are used in this manner, it has a tendency to build muscles within the body. Others may allow weights to settle upon them and it may take years to remove it. When weights are used in this manner, it has a tendency to anchor you, right in the place you're at in life.

   

       First, what happens when we allow people or things to become weights in our life? The answer is: our movement becomes slowed or we cease to move along our desire pathway in life. When we are anchored, no matter how we think of moving forward, it will never happen because of the weights that are attached to us.

   

     On a different note, I would like to point out that weights can come in many different sizes. The bigger they are (problems) the more force you’ll have to used in order to destroy such a (weighty) relationship. The whole point in being able to pinpoint those that are weighing you down in life is to, liberate yourself from that point of restraint. When this is done, freedom is realized:

What are Weights?

·        Dream killers

·        Negative people

·        People that abuse you

·        People that speak down to you

     When you have a desire to move forward in life, then, you must understand that, this desire is yours and yours to protect solely.  There are people in this world, sometimes that are close to us, that will take your desires and annihilate them simply because they may not agree with it. Never allow dream killers to manifest nor keep attachments to you during your life. Dream killers are big anchors.

       

     Next, there are those that are simply negative. It’s hard enough to stay  consistent with what you desire to do and where you desire to go in life, but when you have someone in your life that badgers you constantly, …they can be considered a weight problem. You must understand this. The only reason that people are willing to speak (curse) in a negative way towards others, is because they are themselves negative. When you are a negative individual, one of your sole purposes in life is to condemn others. Negative people condemn others, because they themselves feel condemn. This is a major weight and negative people utilized this well.

       Onward, never settle for abuse. Abuse itself, is a massive weight. It ‘s massive because it has the ability to refract into so many different directions. Some of the ways that abuse can anchor you in life may deal with the physical, mental, emotional and even spiritual. Also, when this type of weight exist within your life for a long period of time, it can create self destruction in many different ways. Be careful.

       Finally, people that speak down on you is a weight that can easily be removed, but you have to be willing to lift it. I’ve seen this first hand. The tricky part about this weight is that, those that are anchoring you down,  may live in close proximity. This makes the anchor that much more difficult to remove. Why? Because many  have established relationships with people that may anchor them. This can easily cause you to see, only what you chose to see within the relationship. When this happens, you can easily overlook the very thing that is anchoring you down. 

So, always be cautious, move constantly (towards your goal) and stay free of the weights of this world. They are only in place to put strain on your life.....

Amazing You!!!

      In case you didn't know, we all have this incredible ability to create the experience that is to come within our lifetime. Once this is realized, the question then becomes, are you willing to create it in order to become a better you?
     Many people go through life changing experiences simply because of something they may have desired. This is true on many levels, and when circumstances become too much for us to handle, many people are left to reap the consequences. Unfortunately, some of those consequences are more devastating than what we can handle.
     As I sat down in the barber's chair this morning to get my hair cut, my barber had a lot of things weighing heavily on his heart. He talked about his current situation and how it was weighing him down in life. I asked him if I could ask him one simple question and he said "yeah." I said, without you sharing your personal business with me, do you find that you may have brought this on yourself now that the dust is all stirred up? He answer with all honesty and said "yes." My point is this. If we engage in experiences that will cause us to tear down, what we've worked on building up within ourselves (character traits), why would we be selfish enough to engage in something that may destroy us?
     Just as the barber stated, the life experience that he engaged in was not only fortifying, but it brought him temporal satisfaction. The sad part is this...He never considered his end results and now he's having to pay emotionally. This is where the hook can be found at in life. Anything that brings about temporary pleasure (emotionally), often times will deliver having to deal with difficult consequences.
   Because of the life experience in which he CHOSE to go through, he is now left with having to deal with man made consequences. One thing about consequences is this; they are never determined by
the person committing the act.
     For example, if I start stealing, the consequence is jail. If I start committing acts of violence, then the consequence could be death. Or if I start practicing at what I wish to conquer, then my consequence will be some type of reward.
     Remember, as growing individuals that are seeking strength within ourselves, we will always have the ability to embrace wisdom and knowledge simply by thinking. Without taking into consideration our ability to "think" before acting, we will always dismiss the reality of the experience we would have allowed ourselves to engage in.
   Finally, never allow yourself to engage in meaningless experiences, especially those experiences that have the ability to arrest you emotionally. When we put our thoughts to work prior to engaging in anything that may destroy us, it is then that we construct a belief system that holds you (us) accountable to being the best that we can possibly be.
     Remember, always love yourself!!

Who Deserves This?

 We all have freedom of speech, right? But at what expense does one lay down their own emotions just to be told something that is condensing? If you don't know what I mean, I'm talking about being cursed at or cursed out. 
    It's one thing to be cursed at by some random strangers, but it's another thing to be cursed out by those that profess to love you. When I say the word "those," I'm speaking of a mother, father, sister, brother, husband or wife. Yes, those kinds of people, the ones that say, "I love You" should never have a reason to curse at a love one.
    Well, this articles deals with just that. Have you asked yourself this question before. How is it that the one that says, I love you, ends up cursing me out when things go wrong... Is that love? If you don't know the answer I'll explain. 
   First, no, it's not love. Anyone that calls you a bad name is doing it for a reason. I know, I know, their are those that might call you an ugly name then go back and beg for forgiveness, right? Yes. But, you must not forget this. Anyone that curses at you don't, themselves, understand in it's entirety what it means to love, and as long as you give them the right to speak to you in such a condensing way, they will continue to strengthen their own negative behavior,  as long as you tolerate it. 
   Second, lets think about cursing. When one curses, they not only defile themselves, but they impute a curse over into the spirit of those that are being cussed out.
     When you see or hear those that are in a relationship curse at each other, the most unfortunate thing that occurs each time a curse word is used, is the desecration of the relationship. In other words, if you are being cussed at or are cursing someone else, your being is either being desecrated or you are desecrating someone else with your tongue. 
    Finally, the tongue is one of the most powerful organs of the body. If the brain can be seen as a storage place and the intestine as the universe of the body, then the tongue should be viewed as the axis. Your tongue has the power to make someone happy, destroy them, confuse them or build them up each and every time your mouth opens. Just as the earth rotates on it's axis, your tongue holds a great deal of power within itself. So, when you understand your self worth and realize that you are one of your greatest assets (unto yourself) and no one has that right to desecrate your being, you'll then understand that protecting such a great asset isn't only a right, but it's something that every one deserves and that is, the love that streams from the heart.

The Road to Truth, Love and Non-Violence.

                             Our Rights vs. Truth and Love:

The foundation that has led to all the problems and issues in which we’ve witnessed throughout the media, all relates to perception, how we respond to perception and those ingredients called conflict; that experience that is created post-perception.

     I battled with writing this blog because it peels back the reflections upon our minds and this precipitates a gradual judgment on the basis of what is considered morally right, wrong and morally acceptable in our society of today.

     Onward, when one attempts to uncover the issues in which the world has been introduced to during the wake of Ferguson, we must realize that we all have a moral obligation to express our “truth” in the best way possible. This expression usually happens very fast and this is where perception (especially of another) can be misaligned and remains dangling in the balance. I mention the word “truth” because understanding truth is what liberates us from conditions of stored up memories in which our minds can easily reflect upon. Also, understanding the truth, paves the way for reconciliation. This pathway is first paved into the direction of ‘self’ and then from self, unto all others.

Next, the bigger question becomes this: how does the individual perceives ‘self’ and to what degree does the individual rectify his own actions, especially when he/she is wrong?

Needless to say, as Americans, we all have a moral right to “due process.” If we were to go further than that, the question then becomes; what moral rights should individuals put forth into society vs. what corruption or nature of sin does that same individual(s) extend upon society? This question causes the individual(s) to not only analyze “self” but it can hopefully deduce the fact concerning “you” the individual and remove the focus from what many fight against…, the system.  After all, law officials are only a body of people that have come together to establish this system and like anyone else, they too may find themselves vulnerable to crime at times.

Furthermore, a lack of understanding one’s cultural environment can easily lead to a misguided perception. One known fact is this: We all have perception. Having said that, each individual must (or should) take the responsibility within his or her own behavioral rights, to not only embrace their own moral rights, but while doing so, extend the rod of truth and righteousness unto others, without the color of one’s skin becoming a factor in such judgment.

      In truth, another issue we have witnessed throughout the media within the last few weeks is this: Must we truly consider the murder of anyone regardless of race, morally right or morally wrong? How does one justify police brutality or the killing of any man, whether he’s Black, White, Asian, etc.? On the flip side, how can black men (in particularly) justify the increased murder rates throughout the major cities within this country, but not take a similar proactive role, even if the system (cops) is not to blame for such murders? I mentioned both sides because this is where perception comes into conflict amongst many people. When I look at the number of murders that have occurred in places like Chicago, Arkansas, New Jersey, and other areas, one must ask, how does the same people arrive at marching with slogans saying I CAN’T BREATH, but not lift their attention to areas like Chicago that had nearly 500 murders over a year and a half ago, can be very concerning.

 My point is this: One mustn’t allow the system to validate their perception of truth concerning policemen against minorities, while refusing to stand up against other acts of violence, especially within inner city neighborhoods. If this is allowed, people will always find themselves marching against the system rather than ameliorating the lives of those we dwell amongst. Why? Because it’s easier to throw stones at a giant rather than make peace with those that are at a similar height.

Although some laws may change, it’s the system that is the intra-character of this society and it’s our behavior pitched into this invisible veil that determines the consequences that follows. In other words, Change starts with “you,” and from this type of positive change, better morals and character traits are built upon it, only when we work towards justifying our positive motives.

Furthermore, as Americans, we have always strived hard to liberate ourselves from the very thing that incarcerates our progress each and every time we pinpoint “racism” to be the culprit. In other words, can it truly be the nature of sin that people are more susceptible to engaging in, rather than the violence, something based upon what perception of beliefs some have entrained concerning a group of people? Or, have we been socialized to believe in the negative actions we’ve witnessed for ourselves, only to influence our cultural environment in a way only (we) see fit?

I ask this question because I’ve seen this work both ways. For instance, a group of people may view police officers to be one way, and police officers may view a group of people in a different way. In the end, the most important aspect boils down to individual respect that starts with “self” and is expressed to others. For some people, understanding where respect derives from, is the key to administering it. Just as policeman have a civic duty to express respect to all they serve, citizens also have a duty to respect those men and women that put on that badge each and every day in order to serve citizens.

Although these questions may open your eyes to many different pathways in which one can choose from, there is one final premise in particular I would like to address.

First, men and women alike are socialized underneath this governmental system in which many depend on to be the truth, above all other things. The one thing in which some neglect to understand is this: The system, more than anything, is an evolving mindset in which people have put forth to be the solution for most things, but it’s not the defining truth of all things.

 History has shown us that fighting the system will only lead to chaos. Underneath these experiences, there is an expectation “to do right,” that has been put in place by incredible minds, even if those working alongside of such a system, chooses to falter along the way from time to time. Remember, just as they falter, consequences should be extended in order to justify the means.

 In hindsight, fighting against the system in order to be perceived of having a higher quality of moral values, will always come into conflict with the very nature of the individual(s), secondary to his or her perception on what is considered to be morally acceptable in society as a whole. Not on the streets or your home, etc., but Society as a whole.

To make it much clearer, fighting against the sin of the individual(s) is a war worth waging against, especially when you know that your greatest weapon utilized to destroy such a daunting task is simply LOVE…

     Finally, there will be those that will overlook the whole ideal of understanding this concept. Why? Because their minds have been interlocked on changing the system in which many may consider to be racist, rather than dwelling on moral truth and establishing moral values for the good of ‘self’, family and those that are connected. This can be useful amongst any ethnic group of people. Rather than fighting the fight to change the mind of the system, we as Americans must fight to display World Centric Love, and by doing so, everything else is capable of being penetrated.
