Open Your Mind

"Let go your attachment of your being right, and suddenly your mind is more open. You're able to benefit from the unique viewpoints of others, without being crippled by your own judgement." ~Ralph Marston~

Good evening dear ones. More often than not, I see people who are bound and determined to prove they are right. They are so damn sure they know the truth, they refuse to see anything different. The problem is, most people aren't basing their view on fact, it is based on opinion. I have fallen into that trap myself from time to time, but I'd like to think I am a very open minded person who is willing to see someone else's side of things. I also try to find out the facts before judging a situation. I don't always succeed in this, and sometimes I have to remind myself to step back and re-evaluate what I am seeing or hearing.

Society seems to like forcing it's point of view on all who will listen and most people seem to prefer to not think for themselves. My loves, please remember that not everything you read or hear is fact nor is our opinion the truth. Not everyone is going to agree with our thoughts on things, nor do they have to. I believe we can all use this reminder from time to time. I also think we should remember that just because we don't agree, it doesn't mean we can't still get along. This world would get pretty boring if we all thought the same, looked the same, or did the same things. Diversity is important to a thriving world and we should embrace our differences rather than condemn them.

Take a moment to see through someone else's eyes and allow yourself to open up to a new world of possibilities. Let your heart guide you. Be good to yourselves and each other. Find the beauty in these dark times. Be Kind, Be Peace, and Be Love. Yesterday is past and tomorrow isn't promised. Live and Love for today. - Live - Laugh - Love - Namaste
