Reena’s Exploration Challenge #Week 7 – Thought that becomes a belief


Everything that we do comes back to us
Good or bad, in other ways will come back
There’s always a consequence that’s a plus
Sometimes we will be given what we lack
I’ve always believed this and all
And when you call, I will be there
I’ll do well without expecting
For what it brings, it’s fine
I’m my worst when I don’t believe
I could deceive you if you whine
I might not be fair and square
And if you care, I’d shine
I think this is true for there is karma
There is Buddha, God and other deities
Among all these, we follow their dogma
If there’s contra, there’s a bit of squeeze
So let’s try to be good without a fuss
On this basis, we’re ready for feedback
As we snack, happy that it’s scrumptious
With awareness, we can improve feedback*

A Twist of Fate
Today, I consider myself fortunate to meet that fossil strolling around in the park. How I hated the parched skin, baked in the sun, at first sight! She had spent her life working for animal welfare, and working in open farms. She asked for help in taking a stray dog to the vet, and I … Continue reading A Twist of Fate

Take any one belief of yours that has ruled your life, and examine it from the following aspects.
1 Is it true?
2 Can you absolutely know that it’s true?
3 How do you react, what happens, when you believe that thought?
4 Who would you be without that thought?
This is a response from my own experience and in doing so an attempt at answering the above questions.
I think our beliefs are things that we acquire as we age. When I was a child I dreamed of being a test cricketer, of diving fast cars and becoming a priest.
With age comes maturity and at a certain age, for me in my later teenage years I faced questions about what I was and where I was going.
It comes as a shock to discover you are not going to be the great sportsman you thought you might be.

Circles
My childhood friend, Linda was reading aloud from my diary, “The Circle of Life, Circles of Influence ….. why are you so obsessed with circles?” “Their non-linear nature entices me. There is no beginning and no end. It corresponds with the cyclic nature of the economy, seasons and life. The efficiency of wheels demonstrates the … Continue reading Circles

Why? 6 weeks have 42 days, and I have crossed the threshold of … Continue reading Reena’s Exploration Challenge #Week 7
