We Are Not Meant to Stay in the Contrast: How To Move to A More Wanted Life Experience

By Arlene
Tuesday, February 15th, 2011

By Maria Erving

We have been given it so that we can chose from the vast ocean of variety that life has to offer.

My desire might be completely undesirable for you and vice versa. So instead of complaining and moaning about the contrast we experience and what other people do that we are not agreeing with, we need to start moving in the right direction that creates the good life we all want.

We have to stop looking at “what is” and just see whatever it is that we don’t like and ask ourselves, “well, what is it that I want instead of this” and then just start moving in that direction! Read More→

ezine100303_meanEver noticed the meaning you assign to people, their actions, their words, even the way they “look” at you? As humans, we believe that we just ‘know’ what a simple expression another person makes means. We are certain that our interpretation of the world is not only correct, it is the only one!
