How is changing your relation to the world? Are you becoming optimistic or pessimistic? Why?
Injustice exists and I can’t pretend to have an answer for that. I’m not a guru and I can’t explain why bad things happen to honest people. It’s also true that evil is much more visible than good. See how easy it is to destroy and how laborious it is to build. Nevertheless I think that we are all responsible if the world is the way it is. That’s why instead of looking for the guilty, we should look at our attitudes and ourselves. We cannot set out to change the world but we can try to change ourselves. If we are capable of that: of mending our ways, of being generous to life, then we will be able to see that good is everywhere. There’s a wide range of heroes that work in silence and that try to enhance the state of the world.
There is not such thing as good and evil. The Universe just is.
We are the creators of our own heaven and hell and place our own perception and judgement upon what surrounds us.
I was optimist, my friend was pesimist. One day we were quarreling and he told me that even if optimist live happier in the end it is pessimist who dies happier. I asked him if he lives his life to live or to die.
Time came when I lost my optimism, he found optimism and pulled me out of my depression…
Optimism is only right way to see and to live the life, it is meant to be. Pesimism in the end is destructive, unjustice, wars, violence…can not jutify it, it give no solution, it drains energy. I lived it for short period of my life and will never fall in that trap again.
That shows you are pozitive person.Is good to know one like you.You inspire so many people.Really,you have a sort of an charisma.I like that.bye
Good thoughts - yes its about changing ourselves and our attitude we can start by loving not only ourselves but our neighbors. Love Tania
i totally agree with this idea. i think it is up to me whether i feel good or bad. even though i cannot control my feeling very well now, i hope i will be able to do so with God/Angels’ help…
I used to paint things black or white, now I have learned to appreciate tones of grey, which represent “tolerance” for me.
Love & tolerance, Paul
I was told by a great teacher I had, that it was good to look for the guilty than to pretend living on paradise, and for many reasons:
Because all the things we criticize has a correlation to things we have you change in ourselves, even the faults of other are more prescient.
And in that way, we look more willing to find for solution and improve the things around us. And not act like them.
Then, I still don’t know if we are conduced to hear or read about what we consider as guilty, to understnad more life and its people, or if it is about signs to follow…
Injustice is everywhere, and it’s true, that as long as I could have a glass of water everyday, I won’t have to complain… it’s indeed unworthy to cry on our sad little fate, while we could never evolve, but brake the energy of our own aims.
And yet, it’s not so easy to smile each day.
But I try, to do what I can.
Oh, I don’t know why I wrote “prescient”. Moreover since that word don’t seem to exist… :)
I wanted to say “present”, but the labsus is there now…
Thank you Alexandra. Your words helped my tiny spark bild up fire.
I live with the dream to change this world we live in..to awaken people…i know it is so ‘out of the world’ because it seems so difficult..but i wonder in what world the next generation will live..ans yes we are all responsible…and we can all contribute to save this planet which we destroy so easily and we dont seem to care…
I am an optimist. There are bad things happening in the world, but we can change them. Every person has the power to change the world, by thinking positively and doing something about the injustice in the world. Even if we play only a small part, by doing something that acknowledges the issue, we are sending positive energy into the world and decreasing negative energy.
