Wisdom Is Not A Natural
Born Thing
Wisdom is not a natural born thing. It is the result of experience(s) ...
but ... wisdom does not necessarily result from all or every experience and it
definitely does not appear instantly.
Sometimes experience has to be repeated many times until the deeper
aspects can be appreciated in proper light (understatement).
But for wisdom to develop as it should it needs to be taken in combination with
both properly appreciated experience and serious introspection.
We began to
notice that we have never fully met ourselves, or for that matter really
understood who we are. Why? Most of us have spent a life time pretending to be
somebody other than whom and what we are and we are lost in that process. Again
why? Because we have always been encouraged to withdraw away from what was
predetermined to be unpleasant or painful; to label the unpleasant and painful
as bad or wrong, then avoid it at all cost; hence Addiction, Compulsion and
Obsession. Each of the big three has serious negative consequences and
anyone who acts out in them will pay.
If one is paying close attention they might discover that they are
their own Keeper of the Keys. The
very attempt to avoid legitimate suffering causes all who attempt avoidance as
a defense strategy to step into the loop of becoming their own worst enemy
while they are trying to save their ass ends from the worst pain in their life
... they become Keeper Of Their Own Keys
and Jailer all at the same time.
I have been
told by many, if not by most, who have sorted through all this that opening to
their deeper and supposedly darker feelings has allowed them to begin to see what
has made life difficult for them. This process of simply having their feelings
and seeing their origins allows the individual to begin to come to understand
why the pain, why the difficulty. It gives them a path to follow, If
Only They Choose. It is possible to begin to comprehend what anger is,
what fear is, and more importantly what they are not and most importantly how
they actually fit into their lives.
As this all
begins to fall into place those old lost feelings will process, and as they do,
they will go to their rightful place in memory. That is as good as it gets.
As This Happens
We Get Our Lives Back
More Importantly ... We Get Our Souls Back
