Details or Big Picture?

Blessed be us all as we learn to value what is valuable. Betty Lue

January 29, 2012

Where do we place our attention? Are we so caught up in the details, that we are distracted from our intention. Do we work so hard to please others, that we forget what brings us joy? Are we lost in the complexity of life. so we neglect the beauty of its simplicity?

Let’s notice the beauty and order, the love within, what is given and created and of service. The detailing comes after the underlying intention is fully appreciated. When I do the work, I enjoy the ease and gratitude with which I am willing and able to complete. The work is easy when the good intention is a constant reminder and never forsaken.

There are some who are focused on the details, the structure, rules, schedule and are judging. There are some among us who are focused on the cause, intention, spontaneous responses. There are some who look at the overall outcome and move with ease and joy to completion. There are some who are never quite satisfied with the result and need to correct and improve.

The inner and outer processing of information, perceptions, projects and relationships is individual. Trust in the perfection of all things comes easily for some and is more difficult for others. The focus of each individual is a composite of past history, experience, beliefs and comparison. The speed at which we process and work depends on intention, focus, energy and what we can do.

Where we judge, compare, and try to please others, there is more effort and fatigue. Where we trust, allow and are simply inspired to do, there is ease, freedom and flow. When we are resistant, fearful or critical or ourselves of others, natural joy is rare. When we are willing, loving and forgiving of ourselves and others, joy is a constant.

Look around your world. What do you see? If you love it all, be grateful and enjoy it. If you don’t love it, simply forgive it all with an eraser filled with love and CHOOSE AGAIN!

People fear being responsible for the world they see, because they don’t want to feel guilty. People judge others, blame, demand, and feel victimized, because they don’t want to be responsible. However, they miss the value of being able to respond with ease and gratitude and conscious choice. Step in to life. When you see what you don’t want to be, forgive and ask “What can I do?”

When you see something that (you believe) needs to be done, it is yours to do. I don’t judge anything that I am not willing to do or undo. If it is none of my business, it is none of my business. If I can do something about making a difference, I do it now.

The difference I make is often simply forgiving my judgment! (Judging gets things stuck!) I sometimes simply choose to see it differently, seeing the benefit, the gift. Sometimes I love “the Hell our of it”, sending so much appreciation that the yucky stuff dissolves. And often I simply ask, within, “How can I be of help and service?”

When all is said and done, this is my world and yours is your world. We are each creating our own experience of our reality. Only we can change what we see and how we receive what we perceive. I prefer to be happy, so I change my mind, my perceptions and my responses.

Loving us all in our individuality to have what we want and value,

Healing Our Projections => Seeing Only Wholeness

1. We perceive what we believe. 2. We believe what we think we are. 3. If I believe I am my past, then I believe you are your past. 4. Believing in my past is to see it and live it over and over again in all I see and do and am. 5. Believing in your past is to remember it and lay blame with my judgments of you. 6. The more I feel guilty about my past, the more I place blame on you. 7. All anger is but guilt projected onto others. 8. To forgive my past is to release it. 9. To release is to see it no more. 10. As I release (forgive) my past, I release all others from my projected guilt and self-judgment. As I see myself whole, I see wholeness. 11. As I heal my guilt about past mistakes, I heal my fear of the future. 12. To be in the present is to heal (erase) the past. 13. As I live in the present and love myself as I am now, I like you in the present and see you as you are now. 14. In the presence of this present moment, there is only Love for ourselves, each other and all that is.

Blessed be us all as we learn to value what is valuable. Betty Lue
