Have you noticed that other people change when you change?
Meaning,
That when you experience an internal shift and look at things a little bit differently,
You suddenly find that other people are suddenly acting wiser,
Not doing some of the things that they've done in the past.
Yeah,
It's us.
You know,
What we do as humans is we project all the material that we don't like about ourselves,
Basically,
Onto other people.
And then we point the finger at them and say,
Oh,
You're so whatever,
Selfish or whatever.
And indeed,
When we do the work and take back these projections and heal ourselves so when we're no longer behaving,
Like we can grow out of behaving these ways as well.
Like,
You know,
So we might think everybody's selfish.
Then we look at ourselves and we see our own selfishness.
And then we grow beyond it.
And then we look and we see people's hearts,
How dear they are,
How innocent they are.
Yeah,
This is just a reminder because it's so easy to get caught in this hallucination.
And,
You know,
We've got social media now,
And it just can make it even stronger.
So just to remember that anything you're seeing outside yourself,
The origin is in you.
It's the principle where Christ would say,
You know,
Take out the beam in your own eye or the mote of your own eye before you try to pick it out of your brother's.
So when we correct ourselves,
Then even our example heals others.
We don't actually even have to say much.
Yeah,
Actually,
That's the best way.
Just be the change you're wanting to see.
Yeah,
You be it.
It's fun.
It's hard work sometimes,
But it's very rewarding.
Okay,
Bless your hearts.
