“If we are constantly looking for
what's wrong, if we are constantly trying to see how someone messed up - we
miss the miracle and we miss the blessing that is his or her presence in our
life.” –Mastin Kipp
What
a POWERFUL quote. Just a few years ago a
quote like this would have made me cringe!!!
I didn’t want to stop using blame as a tool to make the things that
weren’t right in my life Anyone Else’s Fault But My Own.
If
I was disrespectful and selfish to my family, it wasn’t my fault. If I was consumed with my addictions it was
because other people had hurt me. The
person who I overlooked all too often, was my mother, I was mad at her for not
accepting my faults. I missed out on how
much LOVE SHE HAD FOR ME, for quite a few years. I was selfish and inconsiderate to people who
cared and I am Sorry.
I was so busy looking at the Negativity in
myself and how other people were the reason for my unhappiness I WAS MISSING
OUT ON LIFE. I couldn’t be happy, or at
least that was what I thought at the time.
I never stopped to think that with some Effort and True Desire I really
did have the power to change.
One
of the main reasons I was drowning in negativity towards myself and others, was
the Lack of Love I had for myself. In
fact on many occasions I hated myself. I
wasn’t ready to face what was wrong internally, so I put that blame on
others. That is no way to grow, it will
only make you smaller.
If
I had love and respect for myself and the people around me then I would have
been open to the miracles and blessings that LOVE can truly bring.
I
acknowledge that for many people LOVE has become just a word, it’s True Meaning
is lost to us. Love is something we
“say” often but we don’t really “mean it.”
It’s not that we are lying when we say “I Love You” to ourselves or
others, but we just don’t know what love means on the inside!!!
We
can all describe and define the word, but many of us lack the ability to
describe the TRUE FEELING and EMOTION of love.
I know that I had no real concept of LOVE, because I didn’t know how it
felt. How could I, I had never felt that
towards myself.
As
I continue to grow in a positive way, I am more aware that LOVE isn’t
perfect. I am more aware that LOVE
starts within yourself. I am more aware
that everyone is deserving of LOVE and I am ready to have more of it!!! Stop the Blame and Increase the Love!!!
To The Universe
