Tudes Aplenty

 I've had a variety of jobs in my travels.  Whatever the conditions I never had a hand out, just ready.  It has given me perspective about myself and others and texture where there might have been flatness.

Beyond my college background in clinical psych, I've always been interested in people.  I guess 'people watcher' sizes me up.  As Antony said 'note the qualities of people'.

I generally accept others as they are, no matter what, save for the darksiders.  Even then, they are what/who they are, though there is no camaraderie -s-.

Just on a social level, I've experienced some shifts in attitude.  Let me explain.

I had a temp job as a sexton at a particular church in a well to do area, not far from where I was raised.

I was treated well enough by the staff, more or less, though there was a trifle bit of surprise at my education level and the way I comported myself.

We were setting up for a big Christmas shindig and it was my turn to be surprised.

I was chatting with a woman I think was on the committee.  There is always a committee lol.

It was merely chit chat with no heavy emphasis.

Her hubby took offense at this.  He remonstrated me to tend to my job.  OK.  Guess I didn't 'know my place'.  Supposed Christians acting in this manner is nothing new.  Sad.

One should treat others well just because it's the right thing to do.  It could be angels unaware or some other factor, but the bottom line it is a way of life.

One other small one.

I partially house painted my way through college.  I was working on a house which was to be a wedding gift for a woman's son; a first home.

The son pulled up one day and chatted.

He showed some surprise when he found out my background.

Never take anything nor anyone for granted.

Why I can talk to homeless or presidents -s-.

Some are gifted with something.  Or they are given an opportunity.

Live and learn.

Saved

 ''Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all your soul and with all your mind.  This is the first and great commandment.  The second is like unto it.  Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.  On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.''

This was an embroidery framed on the mantel in my Great Grandma's parlor.  

It's the essence of being saved.

I remember the 70s, the socalled Jesus freaks, a sort of nuvo Christianity.

There was talk of a personal relationship.  

I think it was a response to organized religion, a getting back to basics.

As for worship, some favor more liturgical and some go for a loose organization.

I'd say it's like shoe/clothing size.  The old cliche if it fits wear it rings true.  

It comes down to what's inside.  Knowing re the war between light and dark, good and evil.

Personally, I'm pretty earthy.  No sitting on a cloud with a harp.  I'm where the rubber hits the road.  Not shock value, just eye to eye.  Make sure honesty takes you through the trip.

Backsliding is the 'sinning again' falling off the wagon.

Terms.  Just don't get caught up in them.  Utilize them and do.

Each day there are the ups and downs.  We see how good and evil wend their ways through life.

Do.

False Witness...

 Murder.  

Of reputation.

It certainly relates to the previous post.

I/we can relate personally as well as nationally and worldwide.

To harbor such hatred that one would go to any length to ruin people is almost unfathomable.

It's akin to that ancient and ongoing war between good and evil.  It's real and far reaching both outwardly and inwardly.

There is a kind of karma that targets certain individuals.  Just think of it as a pattern within the aforementioned war.  If one is serving Light, then it follows there is darkside opposition.

8 billion is quite a lot of personal stories, yet many intertwine.  I leave it to you to discern your situation.

One of the darkside's chief weapons is bearing false witness.  They rely on financial and social weaknesses to eliminate support.

It tests the ingenuity of certain of us as to how we can vanquish such formidable opposition.

It may well be that diversion can lead to a true alternative.  Chess?  Kinda.

I can only tell you to be true.  Don't take the bait.  And turn their manipulation against them.

Karma can change.  God gives us that capacity.  It flounders the enemy, for they think like the criminals they are, that we all are like minded as are they.

Watch what happens to them as they twist events.  False faces crack and fall.  Deterioration sets in.  Beauty is only skin deep?  Yes and no.  

Spiritual beauty shines in places the enemy overlooks.

As for forgiveness, release hatred.  Don't let it fester because that leads to the trap of becoming like them.

Silence frightens them.  Decide when and where and how to counter them.

Even vast wealth can turn.

Think wars and battles.

And truth.

2 Tier

 Yes the laws for thee and not for me elitist attitude is exposed more and more.

We must be relentless for if we are not, it will be like picking up a snake by the tail.  

Justice.  Look them in the eye and surely don't turn your backs on them.

8 billion people on this terrestrial ball.  And each has a personal life with its cares, interactions usw.

Say someone has had at least a half dozen inheritances stolen.  Theft.

Well, the diamonds must be returned.

It's true for a president and it's true for anyone who has had personal theft.

There are ways for justice to come personally, nationally and worldwide.  

I won't give anything away here.  But, just watch and see.  Also gather what's needed and act.

All legal and just.  That tears up the darkside the most.

We don't resort to their level.

2 tier becomes parallel tiers.
