ON GETTING RIGHTED

We tend to believe that we must be careful to whom we share our spiritual truths because such truths are perfect for making mock of. For example, just saying, "He goes before me to make the crooked places straight," and immediately tripping over our own feet is funny...but to the mocker, it's funny and ammunition. So, it makes reasoning mind sense that we must take care in our sharing.

The spiritual mind, however, knows that we must take care in our hearing. What we hear and how we choose to interpret what we hear is on us. We give the mocker his ammunition by our interpretation of what we hear her say. We do have a choice.

The ego is so fragile (overly sensitive doesn't even touch it), that we can be sucked into doubt and despair in a heartbeat. Making tenuous our belief...based on our own experience, yet...in that very truth we just spoke. And if that one is in doubt, then what about....? Our fairly new spiritual belief system trembles, and our ego wins again, according to our reasoning mind.

Here is where we must needs rely on our spiritual truth: "What we see is always ourselves." The mocker is me. The doubt is my own to begin with. What a hoot...not to mention a relief. All we need do is turn within and get a God hug. We're righted.

Thank you.
