Morning musing about : “You create your reality”
At various times and in different places I have come across this new agey-type of saying: you create your reality, and for stuff happening in your life: you created this.
And internally go “what”? There is something rather BS (bullshit) about that and some people use this to excuse their own (hidden) cruelty.
Of course, it does depend who you think you are, who you identify with. For most people on this planet, identified with the person they manifest as, that statement just isn’t true. There are totally lots of things NOT in your control, big nature things for example, things other people do. Even if you can identify with the whole, you still are not personally creating everything around you.
This however is only one side of the coin. Because, you absolutely do create your experience of reality, or, you create your reality. Your vibration attracts a like vibration. Who and what you are vibrating as, will come into your life. But, a lot of people don’t know what is even meant by that – vibrating as….what does that mean?
Here is another way of looking at it. Stuff happens. How you react or respond to it is 100% your doing, consciously or unconsciously. How you perceive what is happening, how you interpret it, your actions because of it, your feelings about it, your thoughts about it all all 100% UP TO YOU. There is no excuse, you can never put that on anyone else.
Even stuff that happened to you as a child, and left deep marks in your being, and even though it was not your fault, it is NOW only you who is responsible to interpret, feel, make stories about, make different stories about, use it, move beyond. It is absolutely only YOU who decides to stay in victim mentality. Life begins when excuses stop. Not sure who said this first, I heard it from a friend decades ago. “Transformation is 100 % attitudinal” – quote from E.J. Gold.
If you feel stuck, either you like it that way enough to stay stuck….or, you do something about it, even if only ask for help to get unstuck. You can always ask the divine for help, always intend with all your heart and then be willing to take action when the help arrives.
You do create your (perception of, experience of) reality. If you want a different one, it does not happen passively resignedly waiting for it. You need to start vibration/feeling differently, orient differently, learn, take action. You can start by orienting towards gratitude and the beauty around you, start feeling everything inside you, marvel at the sheer miracle of the human body-mind. Chose to feel differently. You can also accept it follow the thought or feeling all the way to the bottom, the origin and notice what happens then. But that too was a choice, and active part of you, to investigate, to be curious.
Everyone, but everyone anywhere in any circumstance has the opportunity to turn from separation towards that which is commonly called G*D. When it is your time, you will do it. And no one and nothing can make you do it or keep you from it.
Where you are on that journey is your unique journey. You are not stuck. Reality has plasticity, it moves and is malleable. Our brains are not fixed in their pathways. Those got created and can be un-created. How you interpret what seems to be happening around you is up to you. Your perception does create the reality you live in. How you perceive, how open you are, is related to how you vibrate. …and what you put out is what you get back…you can attune yourself, align yourself with a different vibration and therefore reality.
It is necessary to refocus from “out there” to what is inside you.
What is it you focus on? Do you like the results? If not, try this: focus on something different….”Focus on your focus” – E.J. Gold
A long time ago I came across this poem by Stephen K. Hayes. I remember it like this: “Do not talk to me of that which could have been. All that was is all that could have been. No more, no less. Let us level our gaze and more purposefully into today.
Blessings to all
