Guest guest Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 I discovered that my responsibility doesn't lie with what kind of emotions and impulses I get. My responsibility lies with 'what I do' with the emotions that I get. .. . . What I 'get' is the result of my genetics, conditioning, environment, human's evolutionary history and possibly of many other things. But, what I do is the result of. . . 'what I get' + my Awareness, my Consciousness! Only that Consciousness is my responsibility! .. . . I discovered that, if I can stay Conscious and be able to clearly SEE and understand them. . . impulses, emotions can in fact be quite 'telling' as well as quite enlightening and useful. I discovered that I rather get anger and understand it [even it takes me many tries] than simply not become angry at all. If I can understand anger possibly I can pass on that 'knowledge' to my children too. But, if I simply stopped getting anger; that 'specialiness' will simply die with my death. I rather be 'ordinary' and understand it and than be 'special' and don't understand why. That is good for my children and that is good for humanity. I am glad that this is the way nature has designed it too. You can only transcend. . . what you TRULY understand. And, once you truly understand it, you will discover that no " transcending " is ever necessary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
