More UNITED than we realize!
INNER, OUTER AND THE BRIDGE INBETWEEN
It is rather interesting l find, that we begin this life completely at the mercy of those whom gave birth to us, with all emphasis on the 'inner' world of nourishment and protection from the outer environment, only to then begin to look outwards at roughly the same time as we start to turn and lift our heads. Thus an interest and need/desire to embrace our surroundings and it's impact on our inner being as we take in everything that our senses are introduced to.
We grow in body, mind and spirit learning to distinguish right from wrong and with it comes the seeds of fear and the seeds of love. All of these things we learn through being with our parents and those others whom they allow us to interact with, and yet it is ironic that, having absorbed and shaped ourselves for many years in this way, we then find the need to unlearn or unpick the jumper of life we have knitted because we discover that we have made mistakes along the way!
Both my childhood and adulthood to date have been of great challenges, both emotional and spiritual. My parents whom many moons ago l thought had ruined me, l see now as my saviours and gatekeepers to my vital life lessons. They presented me subconsciously with various lessons ranging from hard to the seemingly impossible, which l have worked on relentlessly finding out along the way that the 'seemingly impossible' is a mere distorted reflection of the totally possible!! These lessons that were part of my karmic bloodline, soul group and auric imprint, reflected and projected by both of my parents throughout their own lives as 'unfinished symphonies' were required to be understood, embodied and set free by me.... to break the cycle and chain of non-evolvement. I am now at peace. I have turned from inner to outer, turned myself inside-out, looked in the mirror of my 'inner' from my outer and understood my 'outer' which l practised to near (abeit the wrong end of) perfection in past daily life by reflecting my inner... for l stayed today what l was yesterday until l used my mindset to become today what l want for tomorrow.
Thus is the 'bridge'... the mindset.
Take for example pain. Now, many of my friends experience pain in love. I say to them "why are you hurting so much over someone else?" "If you were complete within yourself, loving yourself and being yourself right NOW, then pain and hurt ceases to exist for the dimension of memory is both non and multi-dimension". This is not easy to grasp until you have mastered the art of loving every inch of your SELF. It involves 'ego death' and a transcending to intergrate the head and the heart by way of the 'bridge'; the mindset. Interestingly, the mindset is changed in an instant once you find the right switch to flick... the trick is finding the switch.
The 'switch' is often looked for outside of ourselves, when in reality the switch is within. Everything is within. All the answers to any question, questions to answers you do not fully comprehend, the ability to go as far as you want and get as much as you dream for, out of life. It is a bit like writing a letter to Father Christmas, except that Father Christmas is YOU! You are in control of your entire being, your entire universe and your future destiny! The only thing stopping you from your full potential is YOU, your inability to give up the addiction to 'need', narcissism and feeling sorry for yourself. Why would anyone wish to feel sorry for themselves over a man who treated you disrespectfully, left you for another woman or trampled all over you? Is it normal to sit around in tears waiting for this loser to phone you?
Hell no!!!!!!
What is normal is to change your state of mind, get on with loving yourself, understand why you attracted such an insecure being which is a direct lack of respect for yourSELF by yourSELF and forget about yesterday that no longer exists anyway. Love of self is all there is... love of another is a gift from the Universe for understanding the former. Of course, l am talking about real unconditional love not this sacrificial 'fake' love that everyone seems to fall for but is infact a shadow of love's former self! Perfect love, created and given wings to flourish by loving yourSELF perfectly. Perfection coming full circle. Perfection of the balance or inner and outer so they may live in peace and happiness, allowing you to live in the 'now'.
As above; so below.... as inside; so outside.... as ourselves; as others.. blah blah
If you are reading this and are in an imperfect loving relationship, learn and get out. For ironically, when you are in the wrong relationship it is near impossible to work on creating the right relationship, which of course is a RELATIONSHIP WITH YOURSELF.
At the beginning l stated that we begin this life at the mercy of those whom gave birth to us, and l end my very first blog by saying "the beginning of our true life's path is when we are no longer at the mercy of anyone else inappropriately, and instead we are complete within ourselves to whom we 'gave birth' to find our SELFless SOUL.

What a wonderful post.
To depend upon oneself over the powers that be is indeed a key factor in the quest to Know Thyself.
I use to, in my teenage years, constantly worry about what other people thought about what I thought, said and did. I was constantly baffled by the way I was treated by my so-called betters. Slowly though over time it dawned on me that no one really cared what I thought, said and did. Actually it was a great relief to learn this great truism about life.
Later this knowledge expanded to all fields of endeavor. No matter how much you please your boss by doing favors and overtime in the end he could careless: 'you were paid weren't you' is his snide reply when you come to him for a day off to catch up on personal matters and you remind him of the numerous times he pleaded with you to stay for a few more hours.
This same behavior is found throughout society and civilization as a whole. As long as the human equation is a factor in the mix you can bet your bottom dollar you will not be given a fair shake.
I found that I have the ability to learn the hard lessons that others feel the full weight of. I have learned for example that one does not go meekly into the slaughter pens of government power. Several times I have found myself confronting government abuse of power and I had to stand toe-to-toe so-to-speak in opposition to that kind of tyranny. But having witness the antics of government I learned to be well prepared when the time came to face him [whoever it was] down. The key factor in such a battle is to know that they are human and they put their pants and socks on just as you do. They can be just as scared as you are of going to jail. You must make a believer out of them at all cost. They will give you no quarter and therefore you must let them know that you do not intend to give them any breathing room whatsoever. Of course your weapon must be truth. That the powers that be fill flee from in all haste. The government hates nothing more than the truth and they hate it being aired in a public forum such as a courtroom. It horrifies them to the point of disintergration. BELIEVE ME THEY WILL BACK OFF. But if you go at them meekly, APOLOGETIC, in suit and tie with hat in hand, they will crush you like a bug. But if you go boistrous into their midst and being an all around pain in the rear demanding your Constitutional Rights and you have truth on your side and you are willing to air it they will capitulate. By the way never never trust a lawyer to do your talking. He or she is there to facilitate government. He or she is an officer of the court. Learn that maxim before you are crushed by it.
Never let another do for you what you can do for yourself. In this way you manage to remain who you are and not a fax-simile thereof. It is a very difficult thing to learn to do: face down the world on its terms. But by doing so you learn it is all a facade. When you learn that government and the world as a whole is nothing more than a paper tiger you have finished half the race.
Your reward is that you still have yourself. Now that is something you can not buy.
