Blessing in Disguise

  • Some how we come into so many people or situations in our life that seem negitive. Why is that? Is it a lesson we need to learn from? I belive it is... maybe its to make us stronger or to see ourself in another. None of us are perfect beings. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. Have your ever noticed when you are happy you seem to run into more happy people? Or when you allow negitive thoughts in and reapeat them over nd over that it seems to create more of the same negitive, thoughts and situation? If we wish to not be Judge by others do not Judge them. If we want love and kindness be love and kindness. Every negitive situation we can turn arround...if we choose to turn it into a blessing in disguise. Smile back at the person that is mean mugging you. The person that is always talking gloom and doom...find a compliment for them, change the conversation to something wonderful.

    *As Mahatma Gandhi says "Be the change you wish to see in the world"

    " Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no command greater than these" Mark 12:31

    *Until he has unconditional and unbiased love for all beings, man will not find peace ~ Buddha

    Rev. Leonard Hill So many people have said to treat others as you want to be treated. Before Jesus was Buddha himself (consider others as yourself). Very well written blog. I love it
