There Will Always Be An Oncoming Storm – Make Good Memories While You Can

If you live long enough, you will inevitably encounter storms that cause great losses and destruction. If you spend all your time preparing for disaster, you may mitigate your losses, but you will never have good memories to look back on. Make every day count. Tell your loved ones you care for them and if you have no loved ones, you had better take time to cultivate good friends and loved ones before it is too late.

You have a choice. You can fix your attention on the oncoming storms or on making life better in the time you have left before the storm strikes. Prepare for the storm by all means possible, but don’t forget to appreciate the good things you have and the friends who have supported you in the past.

There are strong storms like the image shown which devastate the countryside and leave destruction in their wake. There are far more dangerous storms involving political unrest and breakdowns of civilization. In the current decade of the 21st Century, we seem to be facing political storms of great violence on a global scale and these will create unimaginable destruction to our way of life.

Ignoring these storms is folly, but concentrating on them to the exclusion of caring for your loved ones and helping friends is a greater folly. Everything you do to prepare for the storm that is coming should be for the purpose of giving your family and loved one’s assurance that you care for them and will be there to support them when they need you.

Cities and civilizations have a life cycle and they wax and wane over time in spite of the best efforts of concerned citizens to make them prosper. When you see that your part of civilization is crumbling and is being overrun by inimical outside forces, you can spend your time sounding the alarm and having a cow or you can prepare whatever you can and make sure you appreciate the good things you still have with the people you care about.
Reassure your family and friends as best you can and find ways to show your appreciation for their support. Kindness is always appreciated so take time to join others in a meal or a cup of coffee if you can and let them know you care for them. You can lift someone’s life with an email or a letter if you are not internet-enabled and a friendly phone call in times of looming disaster will make you and the recipient feel better.

There will always be an oncoming storm, so spread as much sunshine as you can before the storm strikes. After the storm has passed, people will always remember moments of kindness and those memories will help them recover and get on with their lives.

Do your best to create good memories and you will never regret it.

Do You Know What Is Holding You Down?

There is a wonderful satire about Lemuel Gulliver and his travels written by Jonathan Swift that might shift your viewpoints on our human condition. This image from that story illustrates the state of a highly trained professional captured and tied down by a motley crew of little people. There is probably not one person in the modern world who has not felt himself or herself to be similarly constrained by the little people, or Lilliputians, in their organization or their families.

In corporations, these modern-day Lilliputians are found in HR and ensure compliance with established corporate practices and procedures regardless of how arbitrary they are. In many schools now, the primary purpose is indoctrination in acceptable behavior rather than open-ended education. Most families spend their time controlling children’s behavior rather than teaching them to fly.

As a result, by the time we are free to venture out into the world and pursue our goals, we have learned to behave ourselves and not become the target of ridicule or scorn. We are urged to get a proper job in an established company and to put in our time until it’s time to retire. Only a few are brave enough to break out of the mold and skip the university for an opportunity of a lifetime creating an organization or a campaign to change the course of history.

From earliest childhood, we are led, step by step, into accepting rules of behavior that will mold us into model citizens and productive members of society. There is a benefit to being part of an organization that contributes positively to society. Those of us who have been Boy Scouts and served in the military know that belonging to an organized group develops skills and leadership that will give us confidence in managing life.

To achieve your full potential, you must be able to cast off the agreements you made when it is time to start your own thing. When you are no longer a child, a Boy Scout, a University student, or a soldier, you need to be able to assess situations and take steps that are appropriate for the challenges you now face. If you cannot think for yourself and act appropriately, you will be as constrained as Gulliver was and will stumble through life under the control of others.

If you have read about Spiritual Rescue Technology, you may also understand that your spirit guides and other spiritual associates can exert the same kind of influence on you as your teachers, parents, and HR people. While you have been indoctrinated at home, in school, and at work, your spiritual companions have been getting the same treatment and are usually in agreement with the restrictions that society has been trying to place on you since birth.

What this means is that some of the barriers to your success come from your spiritual companions in addition to your experiences with parents, teachers, and HR people. Your past life failures will also contribute to your inability to launch your new career but you will find that meditation and Solo processing with SRT procedures will allow you to recognize the sources of your barriers and resolve them, no matter where they originate.

If you can learn to stay in present time and deal with the issues that exist now, you will find you can work your way through almost any problem. Handling past agreements with Spiritual Rescue Technology processing will free your attention and allow you to exercise your full potential.

Don’t let your past indoctrination hold you down. You are a lot more capable than you believe.
