10 Ways to respect every moment

To persevere under trial is to realize you are required to stand various tests in this lifetime. Call them what you will. They arise without warning. These events are not required to make sense to your human mind. Begin teaching yourself to look beyond what you have been conditioned to see.

At times, you feel treated unjustly for no obvious reason. You may feel confused to be singled out. In truth, everyone is chosen yet, interprets a calling differently.  Each experience teaches you a new level of respect for self, for authority and for higher awareness that trials themselves trigger in the soul. Consider 10 ways to respect every moment you are given;

1) Do what is right. This does not mean related choices have no cost or consequences.

2) Nurture a loving attitude. This enables you to gain wisdom from reasons for discomfort and disappointment.

3) Believe for the best. Higher forces have the power to turn any situation around, at their pace.

4) Trust in the unseen. You may not see a way out of a predicament. This is just limited vision. You are not yet conscious of all that is.

5) Sustain faith. Such mental energy gets you through anything. Setbacks catapult you ahead.

6) Support the hurting. A human being truly lives when he does deeds that cannot be repaid.

7) Express the truth. Sooner or later, dishonesty catches up with anyone who follows this path.

8) Open your heart. Take steps to encourage others and inspire them to create fresh attitudes.

9) Rise above deception. Thoughts and feelings of worry, inadequacy or insecurity are not you.

10) Honour your true self. To raise awareness helps rediscover who you are and why you exist.

Yes, yes, and yes! (Plus 7 more yeses.)

(I might get # 9 tattooed on my left inner ankle.) Or at least emblazoned on my guitar case.

Here's my Homework. Its just like those tests in my dreams. :)

1) But to also remember that doing what is right is relative to each persons frequency of operation.

2) Love will dissolve our discomfort

3)-4) I have experienced trusting the unseen and the higher powers. Once when I fully surrendered to what I had considered an unjust process, it soon miraculously vanished and was over with.

5) When the dams burst, we wash down stream and closer to the vast ocean all the more quicker.

6) I have found that we should only help someone when they are broadcasting for assistance. Otherwise, they are not learning what they want to learn.

7) Again remembering that individual truth is relative but universal truth is wisdom that applies to all. For if we don't express our point of view fluently, it will back up and will cause disease and may eventually errupt out of you.

8) Encourage people to share how they see and experience the world.

9) Nothing is Us, and everything is Us. Depends on what we want to invite into us. We just get stuck in feeling the same things over and over again.

10) What we consider our true self will change as we change and see the world in completely new ways.

So are you warning us about something Liara, without really telling us? I have been having odd dreams lately. But I guess they are always odd by most peoples standards. :)

#1, 5, and 10 are the greatest hits for me :).
It took me so long to treat setbacks with less emotions and more as feedback. I am the only one who's in control of me. I am the one who's responsible for my sense of failure. The question here is what have I learned to make sure next time I succeed.
Good stuff!

Jannie, subjectivity shapes how you view what is right as well as all the concepts included in this post. The points encourage readers to recognize they are consciously shifting mindsets and evolving in other ways which help themselves. Each human being is learning what it means to be true to themselves. This is not something anyone can find in a book or at the end of a traditional treasure hunt. It is a personal journey to reconnect with the Source of your energy, core motivation, unwavering love and other positive feelings that enrich soul. You regularly return to this indescribable mental place. You slowly learn how to maintain a more conscious energy vibration that reassures yourself at every stage.

[Liara Covert]

Bern, your thoughtful insights are always welcomed.

1) What is "right" is always relative to one's perspective, experience, insight and conscious awareness. This is also a test to refrain from judging others' behaviour based on what you believe is "right" from your vantage point.

2) In another way, surrendering fully to love teaches you discomfort is only ever an illusion. When love is all you experience, you are on a new level of awareness.

3-4) As you say, unjust perceptions are purely human delusions. Experiences feel real based on emotions and beliefs a person generates to ground the self in physical reality. The way to transcend apparent discomfort or supposed trials is to explore the ultimate nature of reality. To free oneself from illusion requires stepping outside the traps of judgment and misplaced conditioning. As your experience attests, healing is a process.

5) To sense one is separated from the current reality simply means that person is not yet aware multiple realities exist simultaneously. As gushes of awareness burst through dams in the mind, people work through selective amnesia. People gain insight they are ready to accept on a need-to-know basis.

6) Unsollicited advice is not welcomed and rarely understood. When a person feels the urge to impose a certain line of thinking or way of doing, that person resides at his own plane of awareness.

7) Fabulous anaolgy! Different planes of awareness exist which means different levels of honesty and self-delusion exist simultaneously. As human beings evolve to recognize illness or disease is fundamentally related to one's state of energy vibration, visions of health and well-being shift to embrace usefulness of intuitive perception and energy medicine.

8) Encouraging others inspires tolerance, understanding and love. Every view matters. This attitude validates interconnectedness and collective unity.

9) You likely appreciate Zen koans. Life only appears to be a paradox until an energy being evolves to recognize apparent paradox begins and ends in the mind.

10) Spot on. It does not pay to rule out possibilities merely because some are incompatible with your current beliefs and understanding of reality. Open-mindedness is meant to be nurtured in order to recognize different facets of energy expansion.

To respond to your additional points Bern, only you ever define the ultimate context and meaning of your dreams. If you identify them as "odd," one might surmise they invite you further afield from what you sense you already know. Stepping outside a comfort zone has been associated with breakdowns and breakthroughs. Positive change is always possible. You redefine where you are every moment.

Alik, every human being awakens to his own behaviour when he is ready for different stages of growth and learning. As you say, to recognize you are in charge of your life renews your inner power. Each person has the option to take responsibility and shift the direction of their energy and attention. Thanks for your insights.

If Jannie tattoos #9, I guess I'll have to do #1!

[Davina]

Hi Liara. Reading your blog brings me home, just when I need it. I've printed this out and am keeping it by my bed to read first thing in the am and last before I sleep. Thank you.

[Liara Covert]

Mama Zen, revelations arise in mind when you do not consciously expect them. The interest in tattoos suggests you may appreciate the post about Tom the Body piercer:

[Liara Covert]

Davina, mysteries beckon for every person to explore. As you learn to keep your mind and spirit more open, your nurture new levels of hope and generate increasingly positive energy. Guides are always available to assist.

[Davina]

Thanks Liara. You've reminded me about the guides. I keep forgetting about that. Started trying to connect a while back but it's new to me to try for myself instead of seeking a professional guide. I'm rather unsure of my "listening" and "hearing" abilities.

[Liara Covert]

Davina, recall words spoken by Obi Wan Kenobi:
"Do or do not, there is no try."

Nurturing confidence in certain areas of your life crosses over to affect your level of confidence n others. Everything is interconnected. You learn this as you attune to energy, thougths and feelings. Each human has ability to learn to identify reasons for creating fear and also to dissolve it.

[Barbara Ling]

I really agree with "10) Honour your true self. To raise awareness helps rediscover who you are and why you exist." Been living my life that way now for decades, it's one of my staples.

[Liara Covert]

Barbara, as a human being learns what it means to be true to oneself, then it no longer makes sense to do anything else. Showing integrity also sets a positive example for others, even if others do not choose to be conscious of their own level of self-honesty.

[C. Om]

Very insightful. Thank you.

[Liara Covert]

C.Om, you continue to walk the path that enables you to recognize shifting energy vibrations. New insight is always available to you wherever you choose to look. Keeping an open mind is a very helpful trait.

[Giovanna Garcia]

A lot of peals of wisdom here, # 7, 8 and 10 are the ones that speaks to me the most.
Thank you for sharing.

Imperfect Action is better than No Action

[Liara Covert]

Giovanna, every human being is drawn to exactly what they need precisely when they require it. As one accepts perceived limitations with grace, one simultaneously evolves to transcend the illusions that created the limitations. Physical existence is a way to learn about many tangible and intangible things. All is connected.

[positivelypresent]

So important to respect every moment -- even the bad ones. As you know, the focus of my blog is living in the present moment so this is a great post for me to read. Thanks for sharing these great insights!

[Liara Covert]

Positively present, your words send more positive vibrations into the universe. Every energy being is contributing to the state of different levels of realities. What one consciously senses and feels is only part of it. As one chooses to view positive and negative as complementary and necessary to regain balance, then all experience is viewed as meaningful for its intrinsic value.
