Entry 165: Choosing Your Perception

-
12/27/19

I was contemplating the different perspectives in the Bible, the different ways each author says 'salvation' comes through. Whether by actions, by faith, by working and how their perception is framed within each denomination in Christianity. 

How some denominations (Catholic) take certain verses to express how one is saved while another denomination (Baptists) says it is a different way by emphasizing different verses, and how they all make sense in the grand scheme of life. Then I thought, well Peter talks about trials, problems, and so on but then Eckhart Tolle talks about the only problems we have are the problems we personally create. 

So who is right? Are they both right? If they're both built off of personal experience, then can they both be different and both be right? Can you have one mentality and be okay and also have another mentality and be alright? It's not wrong to see yourself as the victim and accept Peter's words as facts, but why would I do that when I can elevate my consciousness and choose to see nothing as problems besides what I call a problem? Is me changing my awareness of what people call 'problems' evil? 

I'm not trying to say I'm better, but that my perception of life is just different. I'm not saying one is right or wrong, but because I choose to have a perception that is different, I feel liberated with that elevated perception.

March 17th 2023 Mean girls the movie may be the girl bible for the ladies, but rap is the only place where a man can be cocky and talk about pussy and somehow still keep his reputation. So many modern rap songs are trash. Remove the beats and keep the verses, and they sound like a broken percussion by a creep who makes poems about women’s private parts. When are they going to focus on women’s smarts, their hearts and their love in every fart??? – March 21st I got bored, so I started living my best life. – March 22nd White magic, new age, Kundalini, spirituality that stress one needs to be detached from emotions, which is completely contrary to why we came here, is super toxic. Any idea of transcending your emotions is also a denial of our humanity because we came here with an emotional body in order to feel every emotion, not just “the good ones….” Whatever the hell that’s supposed to mean. When you deny your emotions, you also deny yourself. You deny the reason why you came here– to e

February 5th 2023 The reason why nothing means anything until we give it meaning is because of this: In order to have something mean something, you need to have something that doesn’t mean something. In the act of splitting those two apart or existing separately, it creates duality.  If all that was before there was everything was love, then there is no meaning, just love. That’s why love doesn’t mean something because that would create duality. Love just is. To say it means something is to imply duality because in order for something to mean something, then something else must contrast it. Love is before what means or doesn’t mean anything. That which is, precedes labels, definitions, dualities and physical reality. It is the eternal. That which encapsulates and goes beyond. Love is the limitless infinite. The One that will never fail to be what it is. -- I thought I was asexual, but then I realized I only want the baddest bitch that exists. -- February 6th Many Christians think the w

March 2nd 2023 I was confused why i wasn’t like the others Why I preferred one over a thousand lovers One kiss for eternity over hook ups in beds Was I conditioned by church to stay a virgin or did I choose that out of my own internal provision? Was I programmed to detest sex or did I detest the idea of it being treated anything less than an act of divinity? Was I asexual or were my standards too high? What about sex keeps me a virgin? Is it God? The church? Or myself? A virgo in astrology might have foreshadowed the realization but if I don’t need it why make a big deal about it? If I feel the reason is not persuasive enough, why do it with another? and so I don’t. Does that make me anything? maybe it just makes me another human. Perhaps there is an undertone As I write this I feel it bubble to the surface I’ve always known I’m a hopeless romantic at heart Falling deeply for people in my dreams without an ounce of showing any of those feelings outwardly But it reaches deeper than that
