The mind is the greatest tool that man has been
blessed with upon his sojourn on earth and it is supposed, I repeat
supposed to be a handy man and a means to an end for man to handle any
and all the challenges and problems that man maybe thrown at in the
course of his life experiences.
Yet again man isn’t fully aware of this amazing yet simple truth that
is available to him. He is so caught up and totally wrapped up in the
schemes and mechanics of his mind that he is lost to the real person
inside – his real reality and true essence.
Why?
He think and believes that he is his mind!
Everything that is thrown at him he accepts, hook line and sinker and
believes he is the thinker of the thoughts. He doesn’t even stop for a
moment to even take a step back ask himself if he really the one
bringing forth these thoughts or someone or something else within
himself.
He is totally so wrapped up in his play acting and being in a semi
state of reality where he thinks he is in control but in reality, he is
not in control of anything. Neither his life nor reality for his
choices in thoughts, words and actions.
This whole thing then begets the question – are you imprisoned by
your mind? The one tool that should be a helper and a servant to you the
master and controller.
This creates the obvious reality in the world all around us where so
many aren’t even aware that they are conditioned and controlled and
ultimately imprisoned in their own minds.
They slumber on carrying out their daily activities which they think
yet again is their own doing and conscious thought, but do not realize
that it is till yet a part of their subconscious programming that has
been set in place and motion from childhood.
We are conditioned and programmed to wake up in the morning and go
through our usual routine of everyday life and at night, close our eyes
in sleep and rest and to awaken the next day to the same routine,
practically the same thing for the rest of our lives.
How many of us are even aware of the fact that we haven’t really
consciously chosen our life the way it is and that all that we think is
normal routine is unconscious subconscious programming that has been set
in place from past lives to the present one and to childhood.
In childhood we are trained and conditioned to observe, follow and
mimic people and their actions and suppose and believe, that this is the
way things should be.
We assume that since its family and loved ones that whatever they do
is the right way of life and the right thing to do and as such imprint
that into our mind over and over and over again until it becomes a solid
core belief and starts working out as a reality in your life.
Even when these actions are wrong and morally incorrect, who is there
to guide you and show you that such is wrong and can only lead to
destruction and fatality?
Take the case of children who are born into homes where domestic
violence is the norm and the order of the day and they actually witness
their mothers and sister and other females being brutalized, who is
there to show these young ones that this act is born of fear and anger
and not love.
Who is there to show them that love embraces all and only acts in the
best interest of all its beloved and can suffer and endures all things
for them and for their sake?
Nobody is or nobody cares enough!
So the child registers this in his subconscious and it becomes a
belief and habit and as he continuously and constantly observes more and
more of this scenario in his life, his belief grows more and more that
this is the way to be and the way of life.
His subconscious takes up this view of reality and starts manifesting
it in his life when the time comes after it has solidified over years
of silently and unconsciously cementing it for subsequent manifestation
in his life.
When these cycles then manifest and play out in his life later as a
reality, society labels him and gives him names that are erroneously
incorrect haven forgotten the roles played my family and loved ones in
perpetuating this sad reality.
He is humiliated, disgraced, embarrassed and subjected to trial and
subsequent imprisonment without a fair hearing that is unbiased and free
of criticism and resentment.
They forget that he is just a victim of circumstances and failed
parenting and is subsequently imprisoned in his mind as he believes he
is acting in the right way and would uphold this view no matter what and
defend himself as best as he can.
If people and the society at large would but take a moment to
critically review this case and see things objectively and from the
standpoint of the whole, rather than in parts that the law courts always
have cases involved in, they would marvel and be less critical and
condemning of these people.
They would realize that society failed them as custodians of the law
to train them into responsible citizens, guidance to guide them in
making the right choices and understanding that in life you have a
choice but are not oblivious of the consequences associated with
whatever choice or choices made.
The family unit as a whole also has the responsibility of pointing
the child in the right direction so that the he understands what he is
doing and can make the right choice confidently.
But alas society has yet to understand that crimes of passion and
most cases of domestic violence are actually people imprisoned in their
own minds and guided by their subconscious programming from childhood
which they haven’t outgrown.
In most cases, it is false and wrong images they carry in their mind
from childhood, that no-one has taken the time to help them correct and
which they grow with into adulthood believing such to be true and the
right choice.
In closing, i believe the wisdom below will serve you in life:
“Thank you God, for this beautiful day today. Help me to always see
your love reflected in each and every moment, no matter how challenging
life may be. Remind me to always look to my heart for the LESSONS and
BLESSINGS in life”.

Taking responsibility and recognizing that we cause all of our core issues is not a reality for most people.
Taking responsibility to see life differently without justification,
judgement and blame, rejection or anxiety, fear or anger would really
help you in the long run.
Every condition, disease or disorder is a spiritual condition that
has come up for review and to be dealt with and taken care of. Once the
lesson is truly learnt and absorbed, the conditions or situation
reverses itself and clears out and that’s when we say a healing has
occurred and a miracle has happened.
Every problem preludes a negative thought and mindset so watch your thoughts and emotions carefully and guard them jealously.
Nothing can stop you if you have the courage, commitment and the discipline to move through your limitations.
‘Let yourself be drawn by the stronger pull of that which you truly love’
The purpose of life is to discover who you really are, know and
create yourself and experience yourself as who you really are (not the
body that houses you) as a part of the divine source to give and receive
love and serve all creatures of the divine.
As long as you don’t or you refuse to see yourself as a victim then
life becomes a challenge that you can overcome with commitment and
consistent work and it will pay you back handsomely.
A lesson you avoided in a past life will be forwarded to the current
life until you get the lesson right or understood the reason for it.
Each time the lesson is more intense, than the last experience until you
recognize it.
This is an interactive universe where we all work together in each
other’s lessons and life whether we want it or not or whether we are
aware of it or not.
Our fears always surface when we least expect it and when it does, its better to face the lesson and conquer it.
You can take back control of your life and drive it the way you would
rather want it to be and have things and have things the way you want
it to be.
It takes taking responsibility for all the wrongs that have happened
in your life because whether you agree or not, you are held responsible
for all your:
-
THOUGHTS
-
WORDS
-
ACTION
Nobody wants to listen to your cry of wolf or denial or victim
mentality and it won’t take you far except you sit still, take stock of
your life and determine and desire to turn it around and that’s where
and when the answers or solutions come in.
If and when you are now truly ready to take back control and look out
for the patterns and lessons in your life to understand the mind
aberrations that are causing your problems and have taken control of
your life.
That’s when the creative centers open within and you can finally have
the tools to help you change the course of your life and manifest your
destiny.
To succeed in life, you must refuse to see yourself as a loser no
matter what the prevailing situation or condition might be and you
evaluate what you can do to succeed.
The most important qualities are self-esteem, self-worth and
self-confidence and that you understand that you are entitled to
abundance in your life.
You can do anything you want to and be anything you want to, provided you believe that it is possible.
Victims do not hold that belief!
So ask yourself – are you a victim?

an amazing life that is yours and yours only.
