How Are You Handling Insecurity Right Now?

What is required of lovers of truth is stamina. Stamina is needed to get through the rapid changes that are occurring on every level of life. Arriving with the rapid changes may be feelings not considered natural for the seeker. These feelings are in many ways different forms of depression. Impatience, resentment, fear of the future, lack, limitation, wondering if one has lost his reasoning capability and much more. It is happening to people who are usually solid in their base. Meaning, they have already built a strong foundation and a mind and heart that aspires to great Heights. Yet, the suddenness of some of the changes in one's personal world can be shattering when unexpected and you have done the 'work'.

To do the work implies that we are a giving and loving soul who trusts and believes in positive outcomes and willingly does what can be done unselfishly for another as well as carefully monitor one's own balance. Prayer, contemplation and meditation is a natural part of daily living. Many of us who have been 'walking the talk' find ourselves stuck with people, circumstances and false experiences that cause genuine pain. Why do I use the word false? Falsity is an illusion, a dream that is often a nightmare. Falsity is an energy that separates a soul from the Center, the golden mean. Exaggerated circumstances do not help or heal the soul. It is not easy to be a front runner in any area. In the realm of higher consciousness, it is even a greater challenge because friends and family often look to us for inspiration, guidance and support.

Keep in mind the word, falsity. At the same time, understand that falsity is temporary to those who are alert to the higher truths. We will emerge victorious regardless of what is happening in the human scene. Of course, you may assume I am speaking solely of soul evolution. I am but much more. We have been placed in a position where we are expected to expand our character. Trust is one of the most important characteristics we need to deliberately use to get through dramatic changes. Not only trust in God, a Supreme Intelligence and Creator but trust in all that we have learned on our very long journey through space and time. Stay focused on accomplishments and the precious good moments. Lean on the strength and power that provides you with life. Being stranded is out of the question. Real Love does not desert the lovers. It leads us to a place of resurrection. Yes, I used that word. Resurrection is when we are lifted up and out of instability, fear, lack and limitation and all the other darkness that accompanies spiritual ignorance.

Moaning about the changes will do nothing to aid resurrection. Trust will. Do you really believe in all that you have worked so hard for? Look at the gains of the soul, be grateful and allow your self to smile. The journey is not on a paved road. The road leading up to the mountain top is rugged and irregular. There are grooves to place your foot. Nature to hold onto. With perseverance, trust and remaining attentive, we will reach the top hearty and whole.

Temperament

It is almost impossible to change one's temperament. We come into the world with a clearly defined temperament. Character is influenced by the environment, family, society, education and other factors. So, it does sound like character is influenced by many aspects of life. A person's character is identical to his temperament but, it is a new 'edition'. It is deliberately acquired. We have the choice to either improve or ruin our lives. An important factor is our individual will and also the will of others. The end result is that a person's character reveals what he has decided or accepted to be. Character is the expression of the conscious dimension of man. Temperament is the expression of the unconscious or subconscious dimension.

It is true that your temperament evolves not only from what birth sign you were born under but how you allied yourself in past lives by your thoughts, desires and actions, with certain forces. The accumulative effect now determines your subconscious, which is your temperament. There is not too much you can do about it. It is like your skeleton or muscular system; it cannot be radically changed. Powerful thought and will can slowly and imperceptibly can eventually make little changes.

Character, on the other hand, can be changed. What we can do is mold and improve it. Once a soul decides to become a disciple of truth, he begins his transformation.
As an example: If you have lack of self control and frequently hurt other people's feelings, you can one day wake up to the fact that your attitude is not only detrimental to yourself but to others as well. Once you experience an inner realization, there are things you can do to soften your character and stop abusing others as well as your self. By managing to control ourselves, no damage is caused.
Temperament is closely related to man's animal nature. Character although closely associated with temperament represents the intellectual, conscious, voluntary dimension or impulses of our biological nature. Character does not exist at birth. It is formed gradually, over the years. For example: Children have a temperament but not yet a character.
