Timely question? Perhaps. Depends on what you are looking for.
Whether looking desperately for something specific or just star-gazing, we always looking…for something, or someone. To do what? To be what?
What we often find is the same ole, same ole. We cannot see what is not there. Or is there more to the story. Are we failing to see what is there, no matter how hared we look? Ah, that’s more like it.
The fact is, we literally ‘see’ what we program ourselves to see. We are the determiners of what we see. We see the world as it appears on our own personal radar scope, not as some series of random events that just occur in our life.
If you are missing something. If you “just aren’t getting it”. Or that others around you, similar to you in training and background, are living the life you wish you had. Stop. Look. Listen. At yourself! What are you experiencing? Joy..hope..sorrow..loss..sense of failure..want..(and on and on). Whatever it is, you are creating it. Not the world. The great “They” that exists outside of yourself doesn’t exist in the form you think it does.
Don’t like what you see? Then do something else. Put something new on your radar scope. Look for what is missing in your life and go find it. Create it. Don’t wait for it to suddenly appear. Make something happen by making that plan and putting it into action. Step by step by step. That’s how you really begin to see.
