Everything Matters...

and determines all that is.

As I mature, both spiritually and mentally, I have come to the conclusion that
all that I do,
every action I take,
every thought that I have,
every word that I speak...MATTERS!

Not in the egotistical,pompous,conceited way that it could be conceived,
But the self directive,self programming and self scripting way spoken of in many different philosophical systems and beliefs.

I have not altered my behavior or personal theological views,(Christian),
Still give thanks and ask for blessings daily.
I am just becoming AWARE that everything really does matter.

Now, I am wondering HOW can I utilize this new found awareness,
without completely messing things up.
I find it very,very difficult to be conscious of my thoughts, in spite of this.
Even watching my actions,KNOWING there will be reactions, is no easy task.
My words are a bit easier. Still not where I want them to be.

Yes, It would be simpler to go back to sleep, unfortunately,Now that I have had this epiphany, I cannot turn it off.

    This is something I actually think about daily ... because I'm a mom. I wonder how what I do, say, and act will affect my children who are watching me closely (more than even I probably know or realize).

    I think most who become a parent becomes more aware of this reality. And yes, it also transcends into other aspects of life... but right now for me, I think about it the MOST when I am being looked up to for comfort, love, and discipline by two very young growing minds.

      the biggest thing that matters with kids.. is how close is what you say to do..and what you actually do is ...it is the one bit of parenting advice that doesn't get in the books ..

      there are an oppressive number of silly rules today..and children look to you and adapt your mindset of which rules to ignore ..and which to just break to get the response they want ..

      A father of a 20 and 22 year old, I can attest to this. I unconsciously(i Think :confused
      knew this all along, even before my recent epiphany.
      Thank God for not-so-small favors!

        I certainly hope so! And believe me, even though I am aware of the reality that everything matters, I still make tons of mistakes daily. The key is how you deal with your mistakes. Apologies run heavy in my day (and lots come from me!) LOL

    Great post!
    Living in the real word makes me more conscious on everything that I do because I know there's a lot people around me.

    Being conscious with your action, the way you speak or move affects everything in your life. Not only with how others sees in you but also for yourself being aware of what you are doing is difficult especially if there are kids around you. Everything really matters...
