Maybe, just maybe, finding joy is all a matter
of how we view and interpret the world around
us. We often say, one man’s trash is another
man’s treasure. Think about how a starving
family in Haiti would interpret our lives.
Would they not think they were in heaven
and be overcome with joy and happiness?
Joy...happiness…peace may all be a matter
of interpretation, as noted in the Meditation
Note below titled As You See It.
This will close out our discussion on Joy.
Hope you enjoyed the discussion. Next week
I would like to move to finding God and God
consciousness. All Aboard!!!
AS YOU SEE IT
All of this, life, is as you see it, and is subject
to your interpretation. If you see happiness,
it is happy. If you see misery, it is miserable.
All subject to your interpretation and definition.
Sentient life – conscious existence can only be
lived and experienced through the framework
of your mind and perception. Change the perception,
you impact the thinking involved and your
emotional response.
The challenge lies in the fact that the mind – our
mind with its penchant for negative creative thought –
framing the worse case scenario at the center
of this interpretation. This mind could and does
interpret a neutral reality into a potential nightmare.
The God mind – divine mind within you, is available
to call you back to reason, seeing the completeness
and wonder in each moment, each event – good
or bad. Work to see your life and unfolding events
as gifts from God, if possible, accepting the learning
experience of each event and situation. Work with
positive interpretation – see joy –feel joy – have joy.
See happiness – feel happiness – have happiness.
The more your divine mind controls this interpretation,
the more at peaceful you will be – the more authentic,
real, and purposeful your interpretation. And when,
this is not possible start with acceptance – accept and
do not resist. Work on your interpretations: for all of this,
is as you see it.
WITH LOVE, G.
