Well i'm back.....

Not sure why I'm writing on this blog again...but something have been happening in my life that...well I'm rather sad about...

I have been wondering about enlightenment (is that a word...is now) and spiritualism...and i have found that some people seem to have a lot to say about these subjects but when you look closely at their actions they do not hold up.

It makes me sad to think that i have been apart of something for quite some years, been influenced by people only to now have an energy around me that i do not like or wish for.....

Spiritualism to me is about how your words / actions impact on those around you....are you creating a welcoming, caring, loving energy around you? or are you creating a disruptive, cold, hard energy?

Awhile ago i made a decision not to continue to gossip...i was i have to admit one of the worse to gossip, one of the first...but someone gave me a book called "The four Agreements" by Don Miguelo Ruiz and the very first agreement is:-

"Be Impeccable With Your Word - This entails not indulging in gossip or negative self talk. The spoken word being a powerful one, should be used to spread love. Following this agreement makes one immune to the negativity from others. Being impeccable with the word also clears emotional wounds"

This struck a real cord with me, and from this moment on i began to see how my gossiping was harmful to myself and others. I no-longer engage in gossip and still find it hard to understand those who profess to be "spiritual...or on a spiritual path" contiune to do so....

Honestly, to me being spiritual is getting to know the inner You! Knowing who you are and knowing that we are all one in this universe. Everything in life is happening according to plan and is happening for a reason, so even if people are being negative you have to realize that maybe their is something you can learn from that negative experience.
