What Do I Trust?
|
As frustrated as I get with myself & others, there is a common
ground; we’re all human. As much as I try to take a spiritual
bypass & only believe in God; what about humanity? I often
say, “All I can do is live the best life I can & hope others do the
same.” In the Bible it says humanity is created in the image &
likeness of God. Why would I only have faith, trust, & good
feelings toward God & not humanity? My answer is my ego is
scared. It wants to compare & divide myself from others. The
ego doesn’t want to find a resolution of equality, compromise,
or compassion. I don’t have an answer to this dilemma. The
first step for myself is to write this in hopes of growing in
wisdom & understanding. This situation has been happening for
millennia, or I could say, “since the beginning of time”. I’m not
a perfect person, I have made bad decisions & mistakes; as we
all have. So, I am in no position to judge anyone, when a bad
decision is just that, & we are all guilty of that. I guess, for
myself, I am writing this because other people are just like me,
if I can drop all the labels & comparisons to see our common
humanity. It is different to pray for just myself & my loved
ones, or for all the men, women, & children. For better or
worse, we’re all in this together for now on this planet. Each
day is an opportunity to make the world a good place to live.
