A kindness reality only occurs in the present. Self serving desires disrupts this from being seen. Only a mind that’s settled in the present can understand a kindness reality…
Sometimes it’s difficult to know what the right thing to do is. I’m not talking about clearly recognizable things, sometimes it isn’t so clear as to what should be done. It’s especially difficult when it involves other people. For myself letting go allows for me to be more centered on kindness in some of my responses to people. This is all part of the learning curve of letting go. It matters little what one’s intentions are if what comes out of the mouth isn’t of kindness.
This learning curve isn’t to be held to strict adherence, it’s more so used to stay opened to the expanding view of kindness and not get caught up in a self serving view. Kindness and tolerance have to be at the forefront when others are involved. It’s not always easy to understand where others are coming from so it’s better not to judge and to try and deal with situations from a place of kindness. This is much easier said than done, but by practicing quietness it gets easier to decipher what the right action is. We shouldn’t be too hard on ourselves because of our Conditioned Mind, the slow process of awakening has to be accepted if one is to be at peace. But on the other hand our conditioning is not to be ignored because we won’t learn from it and the same reactions will be repeated over and over again.
Although our journey may seem mundane at times, it’s only a self serving mind that makes it seem this way; life can never be mundane. Each moment of each day is new unto itself, and when it’s lived in the present it’ll be realized what a gift life truly is. It’ll be understood that what our learning curve affords us is not the mundane life of living in the past or future, but the ability to live in the present more and more and respond to life from a place of kindness instead of reacting to it from a self serving mind. The more this is done, the less mundane life will be and the more kindness one will have for themselves and hence for all beings…
The more we grasp for answers outside ourselves the more in the grasp of fear we are. When we look outside, its only because we are fearful of what we might find inside.
