Last night I woke up a few times with very strong feelings between Character and the Situation.
That most often we blame the situation rather than blame our selves and the lack or the choice of action we took in each situation.
There seems to be this wide separation in our thought patterns that has us victims of circumstances rather than participants in our lives.
We don't arrive with Character, but rather over time and through the valleys and mountains in our lives we begin to layer who we are by what we do.
Oddly enough, we somehow tend to NOT believe who others are, we keep blaming the circumstance rather than the character.
The circumstance is often times the accumulation of past events coming home to roost, it is not just a wild card that happened into our lives…
The Universe is the perfect score keeper and it never lets us get away with anything, the 'karma' deal is right on. We do indeed reap what we sow and the longer we put off harvesting, the bigger the crop we have to tend to when we finally get around to seeing what we planted.
What I am here to tell you is you can't plant denial and pull up honesty.
You can't spread seeds of bullying and come up with people who don't fear you.
How you move in the world echoes back your own energy.
Each moment of today is laying the carpet of tomorrow.
There is no vengeful God or evil Universe, there is just you tossing the ball against the wall of the Universe, you will get back what you put out.
There are no mistakes.
Truth will reflect back truth.
Deceit will conjure up relationships minus the truth.
It all begins with you.
You are the common denominator in all things. The world truly does revolve around you.
There are a billion places you can find people behaving badly but all that truly matters in your life is you.
Victims focus on what others need to do in order for them to find peace.
You will know you are no longer a victim when you can find peace in the midst of others behaving badly.
If my happiness depended upon my mother and father healing, I would be a victim of their lives. Instead, I put my wellness in my own hands. I looked in my own life and saw combinations of their dysfunction littered everywhere, and that is where I began.
In each moment of time, I looked at what I was believing or thinking, and then how I acted….did they match or was I a walking contradiction like them; partly truth and partly fiction?
Character can survive any situation if all it wants is truth.

Thy Will Be Done
A thought came to me last night as I lay down to rest, “Being a Victim is easy….”
Being a victim requires NOTHING from you, you get to just sit and wait for the world to change.
Victims always have someone to blame you are never held accountable, you are blame free, a loving kind individual and the world is beating you up.
Someone is always coming in and wrecking your world so you lose your kind demeanor.
It is by far easier to point a finger at the cause of why you act the way you act, than it is to change your actions.
“If someone can steal your peace, You are the Loser”…says, Bikram.
I just never felt to the depth of my soul, that being a victim was the easy way out that it required less than actually making a change.
It seems that it is more painful to be a victim, but now I am wondering if that is true? Maybe it is actually harder to change, to walk out of the old patterns, and do something different.
Make a new response; require more from your self and less from the world, to bring back to you the ownership of all your behaviors.
Instead of people out there pushing your buttons, keep your fingers on your own buttons; turn the buttons inward, so when you explode, it was you who did it, not some outside source.
Changing from victim to empower is wearing your emotional clothes inside out, so all the buttons are on the inside, where there is no one to blame but yourself, each and every time you speak or act out, you are the only one hurting yourself.
Is it possible to be Masochistic to self?
It is a cycle of self-abuse.
How is it easier to remain in that role, than it is to stop the pain?
It just doesn’t seem right that it is easier to be hurt over and over, to have your hopes and dreams dashed again and again?
How is it so much easier to be so out of control of your self?
And yet, most of the victims I know are working so hard to control the world and yet are unable to see that they are the ones out of control in their own world.
There is a slight but profound difference between being in control in a world that’s in control, or being out of control by and out of control world.
The mirror affect yet again.
If you are a victim, the world is out to get you.
When you are not, the world is out to give you all that you could ever dream and more.
It is literally impossible to be kind in a mad world, the laws of the Universe works beautifully always, "Thy will be done".
