If it was visible

Posted on by philipdodson

If we had a sore on our arm, face, leg or if we had a cut or something else that was visible to us or to others, then typically we would take action to deal with it. Also, others would show concern, interest and perhaps advise us to do something or in the case of parent and child, the parent would take action.

So if it’s visible to us and others, we care and take action.

What about mental health? Something that is invisible? What do we and others do about that?

Do we spend time taking care of our mental health?

Invisible things are more important and not the superficial.

True prosperity

Posted on by philipdodson

True prosperity is something we all have but do not realise it.

If we chase money, wealth, what we do not have, sure we can be motivated and driven. But when we get the perceived prosperity, we will still not be prosperous. We will still deep down be discontented and wanting more, we will have already moved onto future increased fake prosperity, so we will not even appreciate the extra wealth.

True prosperity is this precise moment that you are reading this. That is because this present moment is our only real life. If we adopt gratitude now for all that we have and accept that is what we have right now, then we will give up on the pursuit of fake prosperity and be truly at peace with all that we have already.

Constantly wanting to be in the future, with it’s projected hope and salvation means we are always waiting, instead of enjoying the only true prosperous moment, life now.
