It's Tantilizing Tuesday tickling with terrific tremors of titilating, tansmania, tropical tea and tides of tremendous turtle-like trepidation topping tender tonality amidst true toes traversing teams today that tug tenticles with the letter T. Okay, I'm in a special mood today, feeling the tip of my lips, teeth ant tongue. I realize that I couldn't come up with very many words that start with T but now the words are flooding into my mind, tipping, triple-sec, tornado, thunder, tumultuous, timber, tall, train, trap, trapeze, tranny, transgender, troublesome, treble, tenor, things, thimble, telepathy, telescope, trident, toys, tires, telephone, table, throw, tether, tanks, title...
Today's affirmation (www.scienceofmind.com): Today, I release all judgments. I accept that we are all different, yet all divine. I know every time I look into the eyes of another I am seeing God expressing. What a wonderful affirmation and I was just reading, okay barely looking at this piece of paper I have near the entrance to my room or exit. It contains the words of the Four Agreements by Miguel Ruiz, amazing writer of spiritual principles. And these rules are so in alignment with this affirmation in that instead of taking the actions of people as some indication of how we should treat them, we can move from a a place always seeing the God in them and recognizing that no matter how they behave, they're still alright and should not be judged. How many of us want to be in the world without judgement? It amazes me the shear amount of people ho consume there time worrying about what other people think, living up to what they think other people expect of them. I know I spent a good amount of time doing this because that's all I knew, that's what I thought was expected of me and as the saying goes, I couldn't win for losing. If it one thang it was another and on and on and on.
The four agreements starts out with being impeccable with your words which I translate into meaning, say what you mean and mean what you say. We live in a culture where we lie from the time we get up in the morning until the time we go to bed. We denote these lies as little white lies but in the end they are lies, untruths and don't serve anyone although we think by telling a lie will spare people, all we do is set up a dynamics whereby we don't really know one another and we hurt ourselves because after we say that we are fine, we want to act out in passive/aggressive ways to communicate that we really aren't fine. This is courage to simply tell people the truth is so hard and yet, it's actually harder for us to tell ourselves the truth, so it is within reason and that is why we perpetuate the little white lies. Also, until we can be still and really access what is going on for us, it will probably be impossible for one to tell the truth or be impeccable. When we do get ready to tell the truth we project expectations or we blame or we take excessive responsibility. Impeccable means just that impeccable, it is an exacting, a culmination of the truth in it' entirety which can be simple or complex. I think about my son, I want him to be more proactive about life, so I stay on him about cleaning his room, if I were being impeccable, I would say to him, son I'm worried about your future and wish I knew that you were taking more steps to create the life you want and deserve. When he cleans his room, it is a way for feel as if he is doing something but it is not what I really want. So, what I'm learning to do is simply check in with him from time to time about his future goals. I'm learning patience and I'm learning to accept that when he says, he doesn't know what he wants to do, that he is being impeccable with his words. If there is a teacher in my life, one who teaches me about impeccability with words, my son is a master. He is a man of few words but the words he communicates are dead on. He says what he means and he means what he says. I'm often sent spiraling into another spiritual lesson when I come from talking with him. He leads a simple life, he is open but not in need of moving in concert with the social norms but he has aspirations about life, love and the future. I want to control him but of course that will work as well as me trying to control myself, so I don't try and I left that desire many, many, many years ago when the twins were teenagers. what I learn about impeccability with words is that really in life you won't have to say much because there isn't much to say. Words are merely signals of action of the past, present or future. We want world peace, we have to be the peace that we want in our lives. Today, I strive to be the peace that I want in the world and I do so by recognizing that we are divine, I release judgment and commit to being impeccable with my words. What better way to live, to grow, to love and to be in the moment.
Tomorrow I will reflect on another one of Ruiz's agreements.
I am perfect and I whole and I am complete. I LOVE ME!
