We make reality

Posted on by philipdodson

Everything in life is what we make it.

No one or no thing does anything to us ever. We do it all to ourselves in the actions and reactions that we choose.

We manifest the life that we have through our thoughts, beliefs and actions.

This moment now is our entire life in this ever-changing same present moment that unfolds continuously with all its temporary forms.

How we choose to react and act in this moment is what shapes our reality.

How we choose to see life is exactly how it will be. We make reality.

What is being kind?

Posted on by philipdodson

We all like to think we are kind.

Let’s ask ourselves a few simple questions.

If we open a door for someone are we upset if they don’t say thank you? If we give someone a gift are we disappointed if they don’t reciprocate? If we compliment someone are we upset if they don’t give us one back?

If we are answering ‘yes’ then that’s not kindness, more manipulation.

Kindness has nothing attached and we are doing to bring ourselves inner joy. We don’t need reward or recognition. If we seek recognition then it is ego.

Be and be kind because we can and it brings joy to ourselves and others without obligations or burdens.

Kindness is from the heart with no strings, anything else has an agenda and comes from the mind.
