Internal Remodeling

TODAY'S QUOTE:
"As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world as in being able to remake ourselves.".... Mahatma Gandhi

The ability to redecorate our world from the inside out is every humans birthright. The use or misuse of that power is voluntary. Some never use it at all while other's are in a constant remodel mode. How it is utilized and what frame of mind is involved either enriches your life with a peace beyond imagining or inspires a frantic search to be satisfied.

I know people who use the power to constantly learn new things that benefit every facet of their being. Their use is totally positive and the results are always magical. Constant reaching for knowledge and understanding is the best possible use of an ability tailor made for the human animal.

I know others who spend a lifetime in changing their surroundings... moving from place to place... redecorating... rearranging furniture in an endless search to find or create a comfort zone that always evades them somehow. Their dissatisfaction shows in everything they touch. They become instantly bored with whatever they possess in such a fashion that it soon possesses them.

The negative is just as forceful as the positive can be; power misused is still power and it can slam you down or lift you up if it gains control. The choice is up to us whether we use that power or it uses us. A birthright should be a treasured gift. Unwrap it carefully and use it in a way that honors both it and you. And as always.... think about it.... let it ride.... then you decide!!!!
