What we believe we lack

Posted on by philipdodson

What we believe we lack is, in fact, what we do not give to ourselves and others.

For example, If we think that people do not listen to us, then it is actually the fact that we are poor listeners.

Whatever we believe is lacking can be easily resolved, we simply need to give to others first what we believe we lack.

So, if we believe no one loves us, we need to start by giving love to ourselves and others. If we believe no one listens to us, we must first listen to ourselves and to others.

The world is a simple reflection of ourselves as we are one and the same. We manifest our own reality in the exterior world.

Give and you shall receive, which has to be free from expectation and then it will return. If we place an expectation, then it is simply manipulation rather than genuine love from our true essence.

Why is the obstacle the path?

Why is the obstacle the path?

Whatever we fear the most in life is what we should be doing. It is our guide to what the moment wants us to do.

We never fear anything that we do not care about.

We are all part of the one life, the universe and we are a multiple part of that universal consciousness. If the path was easy there would be no experience to be gained. The universe wants to experience itself in as many forms as possible, in fact, it is limitless.

Therefore, beyond our primary purpose to just be and to simply be a being, our secondary purpose is to take our unique gift and give it to the world. That will mean overcoming obstacles and the bigger the obstacle the more likely our purpose is beyond that and we are on the right path to fulfilling that purpose.

Of course, as all forms are temporary, our secondary purpose will change constantly and new obstacles will block the path. Our primary purpose to just be is permanent like this now moment.

So whatever obstacle you are hiding from, fearing, avoiding, running away from…turn round and tackle it. It is a courageous person who chooses to challenge their biggest obstacles and it will, like all things, take one step at a time.

Without obstacles in our path there is no purpose.

We have to take that first step now.
